I totally agree: it is a TV pilot! In short this has nothing to do with the Modesty Blaise we know from the comic strips. Expectations was high in these times of comic strip superhero's, being made into high budget action movies, and with the name Tarantion on the cover my appetite was ready to be satisfied with the pleasure of his work. Major mistake, this is not even remotely exciting or interesting. The lesson to be learned from this is whenever Miramax presents a "movie" with the Words: "presented by Quintin Tarantino"- be prepared things are not what they appear to be. What I really would like to know is why Mr. Tarantino let them abuse his good name like this? Is it because he has been promised an opportunity as to redeem him self in the making of the real movie?
