Just got back from the 70mm. I've forgotten how great film actually looks because I probably haven't seen it since I was wee, and ofc never 70mm.

Probably my least favorite Tarantino that I've seen (seen all but Death Proof), but that's not a huge insult because all his stuff is so solid, so it was still enjoyable for me.


death proof was terrible.

I enjoyed this more than django. I love being able to sit through a long movie that takes place primarily in one place relying on great dialog and minimal action scenes.

Death proof was very poor in comparison to anything he's done.

Btw are you Scottish?

It wasn't all that that made it my least favorite in particular. I knew what kind of movie it was like going into it, and I am as big of a Tarantino fan as the next guy, but I didn't think this movie had "great" dialogue. It had some great dialogue, and lots of tedious dialogue as well. His tedious dialogue got carried by all the great performances by everyone in the cast, so it made it a lot better. That tedium has always been a style in all of his films, really... it just seemed a tad more annoying here. I mean, just try to compare the dialogue here to like... Inglorious Basterds. Also, the narration part after the intermission was kind of silly and dumb, but Tarantino seems to always throw in something silly and dumb into every one of his movies nowadays (like the nitrate film segment in Basterds to bring up that movie again).

All in all, as I said before... I still did enjoy it, but I still place it as his lowest ranking film for me. It's just easy to point out negatives.

Nah, not really.

planet terror was epic, and the first X amount of mins of death proof was pretty awesome, after the scene where he was in the hospital tho it lost me.

Finally got around to watching this last night.

Probably one of my least favorite Tarantino movies, still a solid 7/10 movie.

Great film. Loved it the whole way through. Except the credits intro.

Tarantino is a love or hate for most people.
I'm a lover.
