NOT Even Watchworthy!

Rating: 2/10 (8 May 2016)

I don't usually do movie reviews, but after watching Quentin Tarantino's "The Hateful Eight", I feel compelled to issue a warning. I found this to be a terrible movie on so many levels!!! Where to start? The (thin) plot is tedious much of the time and the characters woefully unredeemable. I would issue a special 'Hang Your Head in Shame' award for deliberately revolting scenes; so many in fact, that they overtake most of the film. In typical Tarantino style, this film is accompanied by extreme violence and plenty of blood and gore. The acting by a select cast was the only decent thing about it. Don't be swayed by the idiotic crop of sadistic QT cult followers who will give it rave reviews for blood lust alone. This same story could have been told differently and been much more deserving of artistic merit. I would guess that Quentin (of Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill) is merely trying to cash in on his vintage fame. Don't waste your popcorn on this one folks, I came dangerously close to losing mine!
