100% Tarantino

Rating: 8/10 (17 January 2016)

A movie from Tarantino always gives you certain expectations. There are many twists and turns in the story, it's mostly quite graphic, there's a lot of character development, good music and the dialogs are one of a kind. Each Tarantino movie has this, yet the manner in how he brings it differs.
This 8th installment (what a "coincidence" the title is The Hateful Eight) is no different. Tarantino, again, delivers a masterpiece. It's more slow going than his usual work and though it's (just a little bit) annoying at the start, it picks up speed (story wise) and by the end there are so many things happening you'll need to rewind a bit. Luckily the movie helps you with that a little.
The actors each add a lot of talent to the atmosphere even on this limited set (which is mainly inside Minnie's haberdashery).
The music, brought to you by Ennio Morricone does deliver the atmosphere, though I found it less "accessible" outside the movie as was the case with Tarantino's previous work.
For any Tarantino fan, you will not be disappointed.
