My Review-

This movie is told in four parts, most of the parts are were weird and me and friend were trying to figure out what was going on, even though it was funny it was like "what the hell is going on?' The funniest parts of the movie were Tim Roth and his mannerisms and how he interacted with everyone that he met at the hotel on his first day. This movie being told in four separate parts had four writers and four directors all the same, the funniest parts being from Rodriguez and Tarantino. The one part that confused me the most was The first segment, it seemed all over the place and plus it had Madonna in it and I do not like her that much so I already did not like the segment, and it seemed to be going downhill from the beginning when they were sorta of speaking in tongue but not really, sort of hard to explain....moving on. However when it came to the ones that Rodriguez and Tarantino wrote I was in it the rest of the way. The Robert Rodriguez was one was written and acted well do the kids, Tim Roth and Antonio Banderas having a small but hilarious role, the kids did really well for their age and were really funny when it was just the two of them or when they were acting with Roth and with this segment I was impressed.  The last segment written by Tarantino was to me the best one, it was more fast pace and more of what he is known for and a hell of a lot funnier in my opinion. While this was not some of their best work the last two segments from Rodriguez and Tarantino were the best ones and I think that is why they saved the best for last. Also Tim Roth carried this whole movie and was outstanding doing the comedic part that I never really see from him.
