Decent movie, but not as good as previous ones

Rating: Null/10 (1 January 2016)

I'm a big fan of Tarantino. I love most of his movies and I think he's a genius. I had big expectations for this movie, but I must say I was somewhat let down by it. Not that it's bad---on the contrary. The H8 (I'll call it that for brevity) is pure Tarantino: great dialogs, intense interactions, superb camera work, masterful acting, historical/social drama with lots of twists and turns, and the release of tension through violence.
What this movie lacks, in my opinion, is a thoroughly original setting and plot. Often, the H8 feels like a déjà vu and a "compilation" of sorts of previous Tarantino movies, especially Django unchained. It's inevitable for any artist to repeat themselves at some point in their creative career, but I sure hope a brilliant guy like Tarantino will once again come out with stories and movies we haven't seen before in any shape or form.
What I also didn't care for in H8 is the gratuitous male nudity in a scene that doesn't add anything interesting to the movie (unless you're gay and enjoy male nudity) and is just gross for straight guys like me. Tarantino is way too good for this crap.
If you're expecting another masterpiece such as "Inglorious Basterds", "Pulp Fiction", or "Django Unchained", you'll be very disappointed by the H8. If you just want good entertainment that bears the classic Tarantino signature, however, the H8 won't let you down. To summarize, while this is a decent movie that will provide some great entertainment, ultimately it's not Tarantino's best work.
