Planet Terror did a better job with the homage. Death Proof was character driven with the characters not revealed through action but through the shitty dialogue you mentioned. Not sure I recall any 80s B movies that were character driven to the same depth Tarantino tried to go. Can you think of one?
It's not that it was bad, it just wasn't good either. There were a few moments of brilliance that didn't add up to a good movie once assembled.
