Kill bill Vs Thirupachi

I know off many movie buffs, who claim tamil films stretch the suspension of disbelief to extreme levels. I often agree with them, especially when I watch movies like "Thirupachi". Here is a man from an unknown village - lands in chennai- encounters the most dreaded villains- and kills one by one by directly challenging them- outsmarting the smartest of villains as well as the police force. I felt this was the maximum an action movie would go in the name of suspension of disbelief.. till I saw "Kill bill"

After high recommendations from the aforementioned movie buffs, I ended up watching this movie. At the end of the movie, I became of a big fan of ... VIJAY!! People call Quentin Tarantino 'cool'. It beats me why uttering the F Word 100 times makes a movie cool. I am not exactly against Sex or violence in movies. But I wonder if excessive supply of these two makes a movie cool enough to ignore the stupudities you woul see only in Karnan movies like Jambu.

sample this

- When a women goes all the way from US to Japan to face the most feared DON, she goes in with a sword? And none of the hitmen there have guns? Need not be AK47s. atleast a peretta?

- And this women happily carries the sword in the Plane, dangling as a hand luggage? which airline is this?

May be Vijay and Rajini should say F*** 10 times before killing the villain. That should make them "cool" I presume.
