Not the usual high quality of Tarantino screen-writing

Rating: 5/10 (1 May 2017)

I didn't think I would ever say this, but with "From Dusk Till Dawn", Quentin Tarantino, usually a skilled screenwriter and a masterful creator of dialogue, failed in his writing. The film is not really bad, but the genius of Tarantino is lacking. There's no real wit, no excitement, the dialogues are flat and uninspired and you don't really care about the characters. Apart from the first few minutes at the liquor store in the very beginning of the movie, the only real enjoyment was some impressive creature design and a stellar performance by Juliette Lewis, terrific as always. This picture was not so #7thArt.
