My favorite Tarantino film

Rating: 10/10 (16 January 2020)

I'm a long time fan of Tarantino, and also of westerns, and Hateful Eight tops my list for both.
Acting - 10/10 - Obviously a hand picked cast that were perfect for their roles across the board, and delivered my favorite "one room set" type film. I love this kind of movie where performers are given a chance to shine, and deliver.
Cinematography - 10/10 - Beautiful. Harsh. Cold desolation masterfully conveyed.
Directing - My favorite movie, from one of my favorite directors. It really felt like Hateful Eight is the work of craftsmen, as opposed to something quickly and cheaply produced. Hopefully Tarantino looks back on this movie and smiles, because that's what I do. :)
Audio and soundtrack - 10/10 - Tarantino has a long history of superb soundtrack selection, and I felt he hit it out of the park here. The music was enjoyable, quirky, and set the mood as only Tarantino can. Loved it. The non music audio successfully conveyed the sense of harsh Wyoming weather, and the time period for me.
Overall: Among my top 5 favorite movies, and I plan to watch it at least a few more times. Everything good about Tarantino, westerns, and the spectacular cast is present in Hateful Eight. Highly recommended.
