Quentin Tarantino = Genius!

Rating: 10/10 (24 January 2016)

I watched this movie for two nights in a row in a local theatre, and dare I say so, this movie is amazing. It has amazing cinematography, sparely but greatly utilized soundtrack, and features some of Tarantino's stellar actors, which all did a great job.
The plot is very well made, some consider it slow, but I think Tarantino did a great job and one of his greatest strengths, the dialogue, is awesome in this movie. I liked how you could hear the blizzard the whole time, which affected the tension, which for me was unbearable at times and got me on the edge of my seat.It also gave you a bigger feel of isolation and danger characters were facing in that cabin, along with coldness of their own. I didn't have a problem with racial slurs, because this was a movie in which the plot was a while after the Civil war, and they were standard for that times.
Actors did a great job. Kinda forgotten Kurt Russell gave a great performance as John Ruth, and Samuel L. Jackson gave one the best performances of his career as a Major Marquis Warren. People complain that he is the same in every movie, but I disagree. You could feel his badassery in this movie, as his character was not to be messed with. Jennifer Jason Leigh got an Oscar nod, I hated her character, but it was because she gave a great performance and she was evil to the bone.The other stellar actor of his(Michael Madsen and Tim Roth) also gave great and fresh performances. In Tim Roth's Oswald I felt vibe of Christoph Waltz from Inglorious Basterds, which is only a good thing. One of Tarantino's great strengths is how he utilizes his stellar actors and they all fit so well in his films.
Overall, I personally think that this is one of Tarantino's best works, it is a true film and it shows how Tarantino is the master of filmmaking and the greatest director alive. He pulls out great performances, has a great dialogue, and the tension is built up so well that when it hits the fan, you are left guessing and shocked. This movie also had a great vibe of Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction in it, which is also very good.Overall, for me this work is underrated and one of his greatest works. I am looking forward to a new movie from Tarantino, amazing job QT! 10/10
