"An exuberant double feature by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino, evokes the exploitation flicks that used to play, several decades ago, in moldering theaters with flypaper floors. Thus a go-go dancer's leg goes missing during a zombie attack, and the action is occasionally interrupted by title cards that proclaim "Missing Reel." (That touch is more affectionate than factual, since projectionists and sleazy distributors of the slasher/horror genre didn't brag about such omissions.) Little else seems to be missing from this work of wild-eyed archaeology - not the slime or drool, spurting blood, throbbing engines, screeching tires or jeopardized women. Yet value has been added as well - the most thrilling car chase ever committed to film, a sequence that also shows, by cutting to the psychosexual chase, why fans embraced the tawdry genre in the first place." - Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
