A good film with a slow second half

Rating: 9/10 (6 April 2019)

I think most people were expecting a action packed romp like kill bill or pulp fiction form Tarantino but I think that's both his and their faults as he's been directing mostly action flicks and as such has built an audience around them. The reason I respect Tarantino as much as I do is that even though he knew what his audience was expecting and demanding from him, he made the film he wanted which is something other directors could learn from him. Russel and Jackson are great and are followed by an equally great cast, I don't think I didn't enjoy anyone's performance. There is the racial undertones and sub-plot that I, as more right leaning white person, enjoyed and I do think that racism is something that we should take seriously and we shouldn't try to cut it out of our history as if we pretend that we never made any mistakes than we have nothing to look back and learn from. Overall I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys murder mysteries and dramas but maybe not action flicks or westerns.
