Latest Reviews & Buzz for
The Hateful Eight (2015)

Tarantino has been one of my favourite film makers of this past decade, from Reservoir Dogs till Hateful Eight I have never missed any of his films.
This movie has a troubled past with it almost being cancelled, but thankfully it did not.
Presented in a 70mm Roadhouse manner, this movie is a who dun it tarantino style.
So is it worth it?
For fans of tarantino and suspense thrillers, this is a great movie, the dialog as usual is riveting, the suspense is killer, but somehow the movie feels a bit loose. It’s not tight and gripping, relaxing for long moments and killing the built up tension.
This is not a bad movie by any stretch of the imagination, but this is not tarantino’s best one or even better than his previous 2 films. Not that it matters, as a film it is enjoyable and mysterious enough. But one GLARING plot hole caught my attention during the reveal and I haven’t been able to let of it since.
Spoilers:
In the start of the film, Ruth mentions they are going to red rock, but due to the blizzard, they will have to stop before then at a rest stop. Later in the film, we see the villains set up shop at this rest stop before them. HOW DID they know Ruth and his prisoner would stop there? if there was no blizzard, he won’t even have stopped. How did they predict the weather and Ruth’s sudden decision to stop at this rest stop, which is what propels the rest of the film ahead.
coming away from that, the action is gruesome, the dialog is sharp and the acting…
Sam Jackson does a career best performance and everyone on the screen is amazing. Tarantino’s films are famous for their performances and dialog and music and on all three counts the movie doesn’t disappoint.
Rating : 8/10
