The whole movie is cheesy. It's a 90's action flick, not Kubrick.
I get that people like to get their Film School on in this sub-forum....but I seen this when it was theaters and nobody was sitting around talking about "the shift don't work" or it's boring or how cheesy it became.
I was 20 in 1996, and I never seen these sentiments voiced outside of this thread. A lot of conversations like this are a byproduct of the internet.

I've seen the film back then too and liked it, but I was a teenager at the time. Then I saw it again last week and realized that the second half of the movie is extremely weak. To be honest, the only really good scene in the movie is at the beginning, when the Sherrif enters the store and doesn't know that the brothers are in there. And if you look at the Wikipedia entry, even back then, the second half of the movie was criticised. This is from the 1996 review in the NYT:
"The latter part of
From Dusk till Dawn is so relentless that it's as if a spigot has been turned on and then broken. Though some of the tricks are entertainingly staged, the film loses its clever edge when its action heats up so gruesomely and exploitatively that there's no time for talk"."
Another critique described the movie as a "long fuse, quite a bit of fizzle, and a rather minor blast"
From dusk till dawn is an entertaining movie, but it doesn't compare to Tarantinos body of work. Rodriguez just isn't on Tarantinos level as a director.
at people complaining about the shift half way through....that's the entire point of the movie and why it stands out. If it was just an entire movie of Seth and Richie running wild I doubt we'd even be talking about it in 2019. 
put some respect on Rodriguez’s name and channel
