Proof that Tarantino is little better than a hack
The Salvation 10/10
Shame it takes foreign actors to deliver a real western, but also good because I think some producer out there might back and deliver good non kitschy-films in the genre.
Pulp Fiction was great, and Django was passable, but for all his acclaim, Tarantino can never deliver anything even close to this masterpiece.

sadly, i agree. tarantino did pulp fiction which is a masterpiece, jackie brown which is really good, reservoir dogs which is ok, and everything else (including kill bill) is between passable and bad.
i don't care. his so-so films are still better than most, and who knows when he will deliver again a great film.
It's interesting that The Hateful Eight started out as a sequel to Django (which I still haven't seen...really wasn't interested) - but Hateful Eight looks to be interesting.

8/10
It's crazy how a criminal is forced to be a superhero. But it worked out.
Reservoir Dogs was awesome. Probably his best film, although Pulp Fiction is up there too.
The story is secondary to the dialogue and how the characters react to each other. It's a great movie. Tarantino movies always have great dialogue and music.I don't understand what was so great about it. Did I miss something ingenious about the story telling? I'm being serious. I never saw it and bought he DVD maybe 5 years ago. I watched it and felt like I wasted $5.

This. It's all about the way the characters talk and interact with each other.
Joe: Here are your names: "Mr. Brown, Mr. White, Mr. Blonde, Mr. Blue, Mr. Orange, and Mr. Pink".
Mr. Pink: "Why am I Mr. Pink?"
Joe: "Because you're a lovely human alright."
Love that![]()

I liked "Inglorious Basterds"
He didn't direct "True Romance," but he wrote it. That's one of my favorite films. Amazing theme by Hans Zimmer. Incredible cast.
That's funny, because JB is considered by many to be his worst film. I've never met anyone that actually liked it other than myself. I didn't know you existed.

+1
I'm a pretty big Tarantino fan myself, and still have never watched Django Unchained all the way through. Somehow I had trouble getting into it myself and never bothered again.
Grindhouse/Death Proof were just fun for the drive in theater type of thing, still always got a kick out of the Machete trailer in it that actually turned into a movie.
I imagine I will soon just because I never have watched it all.
Have been watching Breaking Bad finally after all this time.
9.4/10
People had always raged about that one over time, of course.
I was so far behind the show at the time I had never bothered, just finished off season 4.
Going to watch 5 and start Better Call Saul, and catch up on that after.
