The Hateful Eight deserves an 8. And the letter's not real man.

Rating: 8/10 (24 December 2015)

What's not there to like in a Tarantino movie? I found the movie hilarious, not joking. Samuel L. Jackson was awesome. Even the sheriff was hilarious in the last scene. There is not much visual aesthetics in most of Tarantino's films. Around eighty percent of the movie is shot in a cabin. By no means that's bad. It's just the characters, the way Tarantino usually develops them, and the dialogs that make his movies so damn good. Besides, details; anecdotes; and metaphors are plenty in this one. I love the way Tarantino's characters use stories to get their point across. It's like Bamn! You hit the sweet spot. The Hateful 8 was no different, though the music score was disappointing. Also, the pace dropped mid way, but it picked up later on.
This movie is about six bounty hunter, a horse carriage driver, and a sheriff (I am not sure-was he a bounty hunter too?) stuck in a cabin due to a blizzard in a tale of twist and turns. Kurt Russel is transferring a bounty to a town to hang her. On his way, the company picks up Samuel L Jackson, and the sheriff. Following their arrival, Samuel L. Jackson senses something's a misplace. The company encounters four other men waiting already in the cabin. It includes an actual hangman, an old retired southern black hating general, a Mexican acting as a caretaker at Minnie's, and a Joe Cage traveling to meet his mother. Pretty Company. There is a traitor(s) among them who conspire(s) to free the bounty. Samuel L. Jackson slowly unravels the mystery and springs the trap that the earlier company had just walked into. Yeah, obviously he met someone unexpected, and he ends up losing something precious. I love the way he screams- here and in Django Unchained too.
IMDb should add comedy to the already listed genres -drama, thriller, mystery-of this movie. Just enjoy the movie, and Tarantino fans don't be too critical.
