“Not bad, not bad at all, with a bit of humor here and there coming from Willie Wartaal from the hip-hop band De Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig. It is stated as the Dutch Tarantino but I wont go that far. Therefor we donu0026#39;t have enough blood and nudity. In fact, there isnu0026#39;t any flesh to see in Black Out. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe editing was rather good and it is in fact that part with the voice over that refers to the Tarantino style. It isnu0026#39;t a grindhouse or an exploitation. Itu0026#39;s just a flick about mobsters. What also is worth mentioning is the make-up used for the death people and surely for the corpse at the beginning of this flick. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYou will see some references to Pulp Fiction and of course the two nasty girls also brings back the Kill Bill feeling but for me those two girls didnu0026#39;t work out here in Black Out. They never are the though rough girls going out for a kill. I would like to mention the performance of Raymond Thiry (Jos Vreeswijk), he really was believable. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGood story and acting, well filmed and edited (the accident with the car of Jos and a police car is worth mentioning). Never as brutal as a Tarantino flick but still it offers a few good sceneu0026#39;s and situations.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGore 1,5/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 1,5/5”
