Best since Pulp Fiction

Rating: 9/10 (5 January 2016)

I was starting to lose faith in Tarantino - he was trying to say too much, or got too big for his story telling boots or something - but this is a return to form.
Gripping crime narrative with some great but simple dialogue and interesting characters well portrayed. It felt a lot like a Western Reservoir Dogs to me and Reservoir Dogs is still my favorite Tarantino film.
It's a definite departure from films like Inglorious Basterds and Django Unchained, which are a more epic in scope and I think suffer for it. I find Tarantino's style is better confined to the type of film with smaller scope and limited scenes, that gets gritty with the story and characters.
So, if you liked his earlier films, or character driven Westerns I'd recommend this film wholeheartedly. If you prefer Tarantino's later films, you may not enjoy this one as much - though it still has all his trademarks and is an enjoyable ride nonetheless.
