The Hateful Eight

[Jangler]

Wow, what a really disappointing movie. Oh yeah, it looks good. But the story was a big who gives a sh!t about any of these people. 

Go rewatch Django Unchained, much better.

I decided not to see it based on the trailer.  Did a fat QT make a cameo?  

[Jangler]

lol I guess he was Mexican Bob.

In all honesty, I didn't give a sh!t about any of the characters in Pulp Fiction, either. That doesn't necessarily make it a bad movie.

And when it comes to movie and TV reviews, you and I are almost completely opposite, so I'm thinking I'll actually enjoy this movie.

I liked it a lot.  I would say I did enjoy Django and Inglorious more but that isn't saying this isn't a great movie.  It was a bit long, but there was lots of laughs to be had and dark humor as expected.   Great performances by Jason Leigh, Sam Jackson, Russell, and Goggins.   The rest were good as well.  Great score, as usual.  If you have a hard time with long movies, then you may get a bit bored.  There is always a lot of dialogue in Tarentino's movies.

I will watch again. screener download ;) It just felt like he went over the top just to go over the top. Tried to be offensive and gross for no reason.

I think that's just QT being QT.

I don't understand the critics out there complaining so much about this movie.

The Hateful Eight was fantastic. It's Tarantino, these films are supposed to be excessive, and he always has a good bit of dialogue in his films.

Are you seeing these movies via bootleg on your computer, or are you actually going to a theater? That might be your problem.

I saw this film in the 70mm roadshow version. With films like this, the experience can change perspective completely.

It seemed like a parody of a Tarantino film.  

[t96]

Well it was better than Star Wars, though that's not really saying much at all...

[CarolinaNCSU]

I really enjoyed it overall, but I can also see where it went a tad overboard and maybe hurt the film. Still one of my favorites from this year.  

 

Sam Jackson's monologue about the son half-way through was pretty awesome though.

it's outside of his top three imo but i still really enjoyed it. QT is a master at dialogue and developing characters. fantastic job building the tensions between the characters. 

arguably the most violent thing he's ever put together, which is saying a lot.
