Same old same old

Rating: 5/10 (8 April 2019)

Typical Tarantino fair in his post Kill Bill era. Very slow pace, endless talking, gore and violence that this time looks more out of place than in most of his films. It was good to see Michael Madsen and Jennifer Jason Leigh in a leading role once again, also Tim Roth was great but that's about it. Personally I had very little interest for the outcome of most of the characters and to tell the truth the predictably grand finale seemed forced even for Tarantino's standards. I can't say that I am a big fan of Tarantino and his work, but Reservoir Dogs changed my life as a cinema goer back in the day. His next few movies built upon this premise but after Kill Bill Tarantino changed his style, a style that he retains in all of his movies and I admit I don't particularly enjoy it.
