A Tarantino Film.... and a lot more.

Rating: 9/10 (23 July 2016)

The Hateful Eight is Tarantino's eighth film, and again it does not fail to amaze. It's beautiful cinematography, stellar story telling and excellent acting all add to this great cinema experience.
Tarantino has a style unlike any other, and while many reviewers give this movie a 1,2,3,4,5 even 6 star rating, complain about a slow pace and unnecessary violence. First of all, when has Tarantino ever failed to shock with his over the top violence? I could not disagree more about the violence being unnecessary. Without spoiling the plot, Tarantino's movies always have a climactic blood bath scene, which always resolves the film long feeling of tension. Yes, of course other directors can achieve a similar story telling experience with a faster pace and limited gore, but come on.... if you complain about Tarantino presenting too much violence, why do you continue to watch his movies. Did Django's climactic gore scene not bother you but this movie drove you crazy? I'm sorry if I keep discussing people's inability to understand Tarantino directs bloody films, but seriously they need to stop complaining, this movie is great. While I do think at times the pace is slow, that does not mean it is boring. The information is essential to the ending as should every movies material. Even if this review is not enough to persuade you over the countless 1,2 and 3 star reviews, I strongly suggest that you watch it. If your patience is short and you crave action every second of the movie like in Jason Statham movies, you will not enjoy this movie. And even if you do not like it, I can't see why people don't appreciate the cinematography and Tarantino's ability to direct such a complex story. You will not regret watching Hateful Eight.
