'Kill Bill Vol. 2'
![An adrenaline shot to the movie heart, soul and mind, Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill Vol. 2" is a blast of pure pop pleasure. The second half of Tarantino's long-gestating epic, "Vol. 2" firmly lays to rest the doubts raised by "Vol. 1" as to whether the filmmaker had retained his chops after years of silence and, as important, had anything to offer beyond pyrotechnics and bloodshed. Tarantino does have something to say, although most of what he does have to say can be boiled down to two words: Movies <I>rock</I>.](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2004-04/12252148.jpg "An adrenaline shot to the movie heart, soul and mind, Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill Vol. 2\" is a blast of pure pop pleasure.

Sentimental flight
![Few artists in the history of American pop are more deserving of the Grammys' top award than the late Ray Charles, so it was hard to feel too disappointed Sunday when his "Genius Loves Company" was named album of the year — even if the award was 40 years too late.
