If people want to see gore and cruelty, look no farther than your TV and the internet to see what the terrorists are up to. For that matter, your local news will have all kinds of stabbings and murders. Do we really need it as entertainment too? What kind of people go to this bullshit?
Revolting and stupid.
Loved the movie, very tense, great dialogue, hysterical moments, and satisfying ending. A true mastaaapieece!
I Love Tarantino movies, no other Writer/Director has the guts to to make movies that don't have to check your brain at the door. Multiple plots and great story telling makes this one room Movie good.
I love westerns so I really wish I could say something good about this one but the truth is I would not recommend it. The movie suffers from too many long periods of needless dialog that ads nothing to the story line or plot. These periods are long and boring. The violence when it finally happens is overdone and I find myself tired of brains, blood and guts all over the walls and floors. This kind of violence has been done so often and carried to such extremes that it has lost its intended impact. Find a copy of the Wild Bunch and see how it should be done. Language is fairly mild compared to movies like sisters. This movie made me fight to stay awake. I would give it a better rating if it were half as long.
Loved this movie - saw it in 70 mm (wish more movies were shown in this format - highly recommended) and it had many of the typical hallmarks you can expect of a Tarantino film with a unique concept of a story line and I love how it came together at the end.
A well acted and interesting western. The build up to the cabin is great and the action is sudden and gory. A very well thought out movie that is worth going to see if you can stand the blood flowing.
Terrible movie. Not worth seeing. Very slow plot. Gory violence, crude, vulgar dialog. Don't bother. Save your money.
Good, but not great. Tarantino films are better than most, and this is, but it it one of his lesser efforts. He needs a good editor to curb his indulgences. Some scenes are too long, some distract and some need more. The usia for e for gore's sake is wearing a bit thin. A film with seeing but not really memorable , especially compared with his best.
Big disappointment after the brilliance of Basterds and Django. Shows all Tarantino's worst excesses and indulgences - WAY too long (could have been kept to 2 hours easily) with long boring talky stretches punctuated by violent gore. Admittedly not a big fan of the spaghetti western genre anyway. If you want incredible action, see this on DVD and go see The Revenant instead.
