What's also great is the casting of Samuel L. Jackson. And now for the film. There's probably one big problem for most people here and that's the pacing. The movie is almost three hours long and not much happens for about an hour and a half. I didn't find that a problem and I'm not even a Tarantino fan. I don't mind slow movies in general, but for a lot of people, half the movie will probably be an ordeal. Later on, things start to happen and the plot gets pretty interesting and raises a few questions, which are of course answered at the end and you are left with a clearer picture when the film is over. What added to the film's juice were the frequent n-words, which Tarantino just isn't afraid of. I enjoyed myself and although the film was slow as I mentioned, I personally found it interesting. I don't know whether to recommend it then, because after all the pace probably won't suit everyone. In addition to that, the film changes a minimum of locations and the plot takes place in the same place, which will probably also displease a few people and I was a bit disappointed at the beginning, but it gradually stopped bothering me because I just found the plot interesting. For me, the film was great and I'll put it this way. I recommend it to fans of the director, because his style is classically signed here, for example in the form of chapter divisions or the occasional narrator speaking into the plot. Perhaps even more fans of the genre might find it fitting.… Expand

This film quite honors this director's obsessions.We have known for a long time the fixation that Quentin Tarantino has for westerns and for making eye-catching films, full of style and choreographed action, which seem simply caricatures. This film quite honors this director's obsessions.

The plot is difficult, and it is necessary to pay attention. On a trip en route to the city of Red Rock, a stagecoach takes refuge from an impending snowstorm in a kind of horse molting season. It transports a bounty hunter, who takes a criminal for whom he will ask for the reward when he delivers it to the local executioner. They were joined by another passenger, a black military officer. At the station, they discover that the owner is not there, but had left an employee taking care. There are also some other mysterious characters, including an old Confederate general. It doesn't take long for everyone to start distrusting each other and provoking each other, and for the blood to start flowing.

After having seen - and greatly appreciated - “Django Unchained”, I expected something more from this film. It's a dull film, too long, wasting time in scenes that could have been shortened. Much of the film, I would say half, consists of seeing the characters talking and doubting each other. The fact that this took place in a confined space could have helped, making the atmosphere more tense and claustrophobic, but the result was the opposite, with that small room surprisingly resembling the Palace of Versailles. After some reading, I realized that Tarantino seems to have made the film after staging a play with the same script. This helps to understand the choices of the director, who limited himself to taking a play to the cinema. Frankly, if I wanted to see the theater I would buy the ticket and go to see it in the big room, with the actors on stage, right?

Having Tarantino direct a film seems to act as a gimmick for great actors, no matter how bad the film or the character is. So it's no wonder that the film's cast is a nest of stars like Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tim Roth, Walton Goggins and Bruce Dern. For me, the film was designed to give Samuel L. Jackson all the protagonism, but Jennifer Jason Leigh takes the carpet from him on more than one occasion, due to the sharpness of her character, the quality of her dialogues and the irony and humor with which she acts. In fact, she won an Oscar with this film. This does not mean that Samuel L. Jackson did a bad job, in fact he is excellent and the second actor that stands out the most in the film, but she was better and fit the character brilliantly. The rest of the cast does not disappoint, but neither does it stand out or be able to do so. I think Bruce Dern did a very good job, but his character is largely secondary and serves only to Jackson to make a long and boring monologue about the way he killed his son, which ends with a predictable outcome shooting.

Technically, the film has all the style that marks the filmography of its director. Filmed in its 70 mm format, it has a positively well-made cinematography, but wasted by everything or almost everything happening in such a limited space. The length of the film, as I said, far exceeds the acceptable. The sets and costumes are good enough, but I would doubt the reliability and historical rigor, because Tarantino never really wanted to know that in any of his films. The special effects are good and the final part of the film is soaked in liters of fake blood and the shootings are visually stunning. The soundtrack, signed by Ennio Morricone, is good, has a good environmental effect, but the film does them no honor.… Expand

This film is deemed “slow” by many viewers, but I think that is the magic of it. Tarrantino is known for his epic, fast paced tales, focussing on characters. The Hateful Eight takes it’s time to slowly introduce the characters. Set in a “haberdashery” , isolated from any other human contact during a 3 day long blizzard. The characters, in a Agatha Christie style ‘whodunnit’, try to work out who is killing off people slowly. The “slow” pace of the movie allows time for the brilliant actors to interact with each other, building up each character for the viewer. I think this theatre-like interaction between the characters shows Tarrintino’s writing genius. This movie is not for everyone, but for me is up there with some of his best movies.

In my opinion, Tarantino doesn’t show off his consistency in any other movie as much as he does in this one. In his other movies, you could always feel his western influence bleed into whatever genre he wrote in; this made all his movies have a certain flair and feeling that is un-matched by any director of his time. I always asked myself what a fully western movie by Tarantino would look like until I saw “The Hateful Eight”. As soon as the first few lines of dialogue begin you can immediately feel the passion of this film, all it took was to hear those first few lines for me to know that this is what Tarantino should be doing. The entire movie takes place in a very limiting amount of sets, which could be a down-side for a lot of viewers but in my opinion, this gives the spotlight to the most thought-out part of any Tarantino film, his writing. Tarantino has a way of making a movie feel so alive with only using his words; the way he achieves this perfect balance of plot driven dialogue and normal conversation amazes me every time. One minute he’s taking about big macs in Europe and the next he’s giving you the most well-presented bible verse of all time; his films are truly the work of genius. I could talk about Tarantino films for hours, but this about the “The Hateful Eight” so I should probably try not to get side-tracked. The most important scene of this movie is actually one of the first, the carriage ride to the shaft (which is were most of the movie takes place) presents all of the main problems of the movie, creating this tension between the characters that resonates through-out the remainder of the film; with just a short conversation Tarantino is able to masterfully set-up what this movie is all about. Not only is this scene incredibly written, it is also perfectly paced, he knows exactly when to be funny, exactly when to be serious or awkward which makes for one of the most impactful moments in all of cinema. Back to westerns, it is clear Tarantino has seen a great deal spaghetti western films and it really shows. The camera work and the ambience it creates makes this movie feel like a true modern western, it’s as if you’re watching the great Sergio Leone make another one of this masterpieces. The props on set, the costume design and the just the way these characters speak are all examples of the great amount of detail Tarantino can truly achieve. I would like to speak more of this film but I am afraid I wouldn't be able to hold myself back from completely revealing the movie, I am a true believer in the ancient tradition of NO SPOILERS! So, I leave you with the wise words from the actual movie - “The ****** in the stable has a letter from Abraham Lincoln?”… Expand

O filme é teoricamente simples. Está longe de ser frenético, tem pouquíssimos cenários e tudo é muito trabalhado na base do dialogo. Os personagens são fantásticos, e todo o elenco está bem escalado. Eles parecem ter vida e ao mesmo tempo são caricatos - do modo como o Tarantino gosta de fazer. O filme tinha tudo pra ser claustrofóbico, mas os embates de personalidades, a tensão envolvendo toda a situação envolvida, os elementos que o diretor deixa em tela pra discrepar que o final será estrondoso e os diálogos bem desenvolvidos fazem com que o tempo passe voando e você nem perceba que está preso num cenário com os personagens.

A fotografia é muito bem cuidada, com ângulos que priorizam as expressões dos atores, outras a geografia do local, outras a imensidão do "deserto gelado".
A trilha sonora é de extremo bom gosto, os momentos cômicos são certeiros e o filme sabe exatamente quando acabar, sem pontas soltas.

This movie checks allQuentin Tarantino is an extremely accessible director, and as such his films and style are appreciated by many cinemagoers. Tarantino is known for his gratuitous gore, occasionally heavy-handed delivery, and homages. This movie checks all these boxes, notably being a homage to the John Carpenter winter horror film, The Thing, wherein several people are snowbound while struggling with an unknown killer and each other’s trust. However, the Hateful Eight is more than just a standard Tarantino film with Carpenterian origins. It is a tense drama that explores some of America’s unhealed history in a twisting unconventional manner. There are a few uncomfortable scenes, notably regarding subjugation, but other than that, the movie is generally a rewarding watch. To say that any singular performance was especially stand out would be to cut short praise for the others. The Hateful Eight is shot in beautiful 70mm, while being excessive, certainly gets the job done. The cinematography was expansive and encapsulating, something that doesn’t amount to much, with most of the runtime being indoors. The main thing holding The Hateful Eight back is the unnecessary gratuitousness of the gore, something that seems to be inherent to a Tarantino film at this point. I will note that I haven’t seen the approximately 4-hour long ultimate extended cut, because I find the movie to run dry at its theatrical release length. Regardless, the end-product that I saw was overall well shot, acted, and written.… Expand

He wanted to see how far he could go making the most boring movie ever while fans still defend it. In the first 9/10 of the movie literally nothing happens, the opening scene already warns you. You get treated to seeing a coach approach in the snow for a whopping 15 minutes, so exciting.. after that follows the most boring conversation ever which lasts for about an hour. Nothing in this dialoque is important for the story, which is basically nonexistent anyway. Then at the end everybody starts shooting and everyone dies.

Probably Tarantino's smoothest and most affectionate filmmaking style, almost as if he didn't make it for anyone but himself.

The Hateful Eight Tarantino's idea of novelization is getting its feet on, firm and deep, no matter how familiarProbably Tarantino's smoothest and most affectionate filmmaking style, almost as if he didn't make it for anyone but himself.

The Hateful Eight

Tarantino's idea of novelization is getting its feet on, firm and deep, no matter how familiar and even outdated the arena might feel like. This, often considered as derivative, formula coming from his very own project Reservoir Dogs, breathes this time a heavy western warm air in this cold land and among cold characters. But the entire quickness of the western genre is melted down to racial slurs when the writer-director Quentin Tarantino decides to slowly kill you off with a poisonous theme. His methods are tricky and even deliberately deceiving, thinning the crowd, he wishes to give the time of their lives for the viewers of his own taste.

And filmed in two 65 mm Ultra Panavision, the viewers are tamed to absorb the presence of the screen much more than the assumption skills. As in the film is not thought provoking, it doesn't mean that the film isn't smart, it's just that it is shot with an intention of reading the lines, the screen with a warm tea on a rainy morning; ergo it feels like a book. And boy, is it a page turner! From chapter after chapter, Tarantino is giving you exactly what you are looking for with a predictable outcome, playing not a safe ground but a going-out-of-its-way rule.

Tarantino has matured the most as a director, speaking most of the story visually, he is probably underrated for this project of his, on not being layered enough. But if you see his characterization and mythical rumorization of the props you'll feel like that element growing into a character, smooth and nice. For instance, if a film covers a flashback scene, and we are returning to the first shot of the film, Tarantino gives us a different angle, signifying the other side of the storyline that we are about to focus; not The Hateful Eight but the unsung one.… Expand

Filmé en Ultra Panavision 70 mm soit en argentique ! Il est clair que ça fait authentique (prenait ce dernier mot au sens le plus large) Bref heureusement qu'il est sortit !!!

Il change de d'habitude et se base plus sur l'aspect psychologique, qui est méchant qui est gentil? J'avoue au début sa ma fait pensé à "shinning". Heureusement que ce discours se varie au fur et à mesure que l'on découvre les personnages ... Car c'est la qu'est la grande force du film la découverte de personnages et on y passe beaucoup de temps. Ne penser pas voire des personnages qui se font désinguer dans d'immense paysage toutes les minutes. Vous allé passer votre temps à déterminer si il ou elle ment... c'est génial surtout avec ce casting mémorable. Cependant déçu de ne pas avoir vu Christolf Waltz (second acteur de Django, grand méchant dans James bond Spectre et occupé a regarder sa pub de clash of clans ... LOL). Ça me fait penser au anti héros qui son amener avec génie dans ce film Au-delà de ça les paysages sont magnifique et filmé avec style. Les musiques sont envahissantes, bien que moins impressionnantes que "Django" (la cassure est moins grande peux être ... car la BO de Django était juste EPIC)
Des Gerbes de sang il y en a, mais ce n’est pas l'objectif principal du film, cependant évité d'emmener vos enfants Donc un très bon film que je regarderai encore!
Les westerns toujours aussi rares... Heureusement que certains réalisateurs font de la qualité dans ce style ;)… Expand

Con un elenco magnífico, una simple pero interesante trama, una cabaña y un par de Panavision, Tarantino ha conseguido realizar lo que será en un futuro (y si no tiempo al tiempo) un clásico de culto. En su línea de películas (los amantes de su "gore" serán satisfechos una vez más), quizás no es la mejor ni la que más me gusta, y si es cierto que tiene un primer acto demasiado largo y un poco lento a mi parecer, compensa con creces todo lo que ocurre en cuanto se abren paso el resto de los personajes.

El "giro" de la trama a mitad de la película es tan simple que es magnífico, y funciona de manera sensacional. Papelones de Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Walton Goggings y en especial Michael Madsen, el más "cowboy" de todos en mi opinión. Recomendada y más si te gusta Tarantino.… Expand

The movie is divided into chapters in most of which a small twist takes place that makes you more interested in the movie.

Tarantino made a very good movie and I love that it's long enough to let you care for the characters even though it's close to only 12 hours of actual story. But when that second half comes, oh boy does it come. Hard violence like how I know Quentin, I thought: ''Well this will be a different kind of movie with more of a psychological tone and less action". But no no no Quentin doesn't make movies without any blood spilled and I like it a lot! The middle chapter about how the 4 people (you know who I mean) ended up in the house was also executed very well and had a lot of thought behind it (I think).… Expand

Often these stories include witty and sharp dialogue which is instantly quotable and lingers in our minds vividly. Unfortunately this story has nothing memorable, dialogue is cheap and the characters are not intriguing enough to care what happens to them. The bloodshed should be cathartic and liberating rather than a gimmick to impress.

When you go to see a Tarantino film you more or less know what your going to get….sharp dialogue, stand-out performances and aQuentin Tarantino has never been known to return to a genre. Instead the director has become a genre unto himself. When you go to see a Tarantino film you more or less know what your going to get….sharp dialogue, stand-out performances and a narrative that messes with the timeline.

All these elements are present and correct in the film-makers’ latest outing The Hateful Eight, the second western to enter the Tarantino-verse after Django Unchained.

Plot wise this is probably the most straight forward movie he has ever made which allows the director to play to his strengths — dialogue and directing actors. On those two fronts, it’s safe to say, he delivers in spades.

If I were to think of the stand-out scenes of Tarantino’s last two films they would probably be the opening sequence of Inglorious Bastards (featuring a tense stand-off between Col. Hans Landa and a French farmer) and the dinner scene in Django Unchained, during which Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio) interrogates his guests.

Now imagine one of those scenes stretched out into a film….there you have The Hateful Eight.

The action is almost entirely contained within a single location - Minnie’s Haberdashery, a mountaintop refuge for the eight reprobates of the title.

After a (slightly) over-long set up, bounty hunter John Ruth (Kurt Russell) arrives at the haberdashery with his prisoner Daisy Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh) to wait out an approaching blizzard.

That’s where things get really interesting. Populating the beautifully realised Haberdashery set are an eclectic mix of Tarantino veterans and newcomers who proceed to give a master-class in character acting.

To give away much more of the plot really would be spoiling things but needless to say not all of the patrons are quite what they seem.

From Samuel L. Jackson’s Marquis Warren to Tim Roth’s Oswaldo Mobray every character has their moment and each is portrayed with incredible skill. As suspicions and mis-trust run high the audience is put in the unique position of not knowing who to trust, making the interplay between the characters all the more complex.

While the plot thickens and motivations are revealed Tarantino has another opportunity to explore the politics of slavery, this time with a focus on the American civil war. The moral ambiguity in The Hateful Eight forces characters to question their own prejudices and moral codes. By comparison, the film-makers’ first attempt at addressing the issue, Django Unchained, was far more black and white in its outlook. To my mind the new films’ take on the subject is far more interesting (not to say the violence of Django’s final act is any less satisfying).

As The Hateful Eight ramps up to it’s bloody conclusion, Tarantino masterfully plays with the structure, dropping in an intermission and an extended flashback in the third act at the perfect moments.

It’s this third act that seals the deal as the director plays with audience expectations. At times you wonder if the The Hateful Eight would be better as a stage play or even a novel. However by the time all is revealed there is little doubt, film was the medium in which to tell this story – and it’s told in style.

The Hateful Eight is a must for Tarantino fans and in my humble opinion is stronger than his previous two outings (the aforementioned Inglorious Bastards and Django Unchained) which often suffered from meandering story-lines.

The ensemble cast are phenomenal in their respective roles and, as we all know, no one delivers a Tarantino monologue like Mr Samuel L. Jackson….… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I found the dialogue wasn´t as cool and stylized as previous Tarantino films so I’ve only given it a 07-10. But the atmosphere was great… that cabin out in the snow.
The movie has some great epic western score.
The scene where Warren and Bob are setting up a rope line to the outside toilet reminded me a lot of a scene from The Thing 1982, even the music sounded a lot like John Carpenter’s score for that movie (not a coincidence as Morricone and Russell both worked on that movie). In fact, there is a scene in H.E. where the music is, in fact, an exact copy of Morricone´s score for The Thing. Tarantino must be a fan of that movie. H.E. has some of the same feel as The Thing, a bunch of people (mostly men) locked together in the snow… and one or more are not who they appear to be.
I thought Bob´s Mexican accent was REALLY over the top and wondered why they couldn’t get somebody to do a better accent… turns out that the actor is actually Mexican!
Warren´s gloves are bad a#s. I always loved those big ol´ white leather cavalry gloves when I was a kid.
There are some fantastic tiny moments between Ruth and Domergue… they are like an old married couple, manacled together, I thought that was really interesting (and even touching)… he even cleans a little bit of stew off her cheek.
The scene where they serve and eat the stew was probably my favourite. I love a good movie scene where people are sat around eating. I have got to get myself one of those big old wooden bowls and a wooden spoon for my cocido and fabada. That stew looked really tasty.
Is the movie based on some real historical events and characters? I got the feeling that Tarantino was trying to create characters around actual events of the time.
Lost a lot of respect for Michael Madsen (since his character in Reservoir Dogs) with his new haircut and the extra weight he just looked like a big ol´ fat drag queen and not a tough guy.
I thought the Tarantino narration halfway through was very forced, just didn´t fit into the movie for me. Maybe that was typical in old western T.V. shows?
Smithers was cool. If you haven’t seen the movie Silent Running I recommend you watch that – It´s a Sci Fi classic, with Bruce Dern a the main character.
Definitely, a film that I am going to have to watch a few more times… especially in the winter. It´s quite possible that the score may go up on watching it again.… Expand

Ainsi, nous voilà enchaînés dans le genre à la fois scabreux et propagandiste de la négritude à tout crin à la manière de Django Unchained.

Pour autant, ce film qui s'étire inutilement en dialogues caricaturaux n'est en vérité qu'une pièce de théâtre de deux heures trois quarts qui aime s'écouter parler et se regarder le nombril. Dommage pour les acteurs (et Jennifer Jason Leigh) qui se dégradent dans cette sinistre mascarade.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Quentin Tarantino should really remake The Thing. In fact, he easily could remake it with the cast and setting of this very film. Heck, he already has an incredible Oscar-winning Ennio Morricone who unironically utilizes unpublished excerpts from his The Thing soundtrack. He has The Thing star, Kurt Russell. He has an isolated cabin in a blizzard. Had the cabin has some dogs outside that started barking when Samuel L Jackson came near this would have been a better movie for it. (And it would have let Morricone reuse some his soundtrack from that Kristy McNichol vehicle White Dog that he penned the same year as his Thing soundtrack.)

That the idea above is an overly film geeky and a silly genre switcheroo is what one used to hope for from a Tarantino film. This film, however, plays out much more straight and really doesn’t hold it’s most interesting gambits that it does keep. Kurt Russell has a prisoner played by Jennifer Jason Leigh that he is stubbornly bringing in alive. He is convinced (correctly) that one or more people trapped in this cabin with him are working against him to free his charge. The movie threatens to break into a surprisingly engaging Agatha Christie-style mystery. Unfortunately, Tarantino switches gears about the time it starts to get interesting. This being a Tarantino movie we are awash in an excess of blood and cruelty and racial epithets. Alas, the film simply doesn’t earn them as well as say Reservoir Dogs did. There are some great set pieces that I will not spoil but they are surrounded by a lot of slow. Tarantino might argue (correctly) that he with his score, 70mm filming, and pacing is aping the style of the old three-hours western such as Once upon a Time in the West, or the Dollars trilogy. But seriously have you sat through one of those in one films in one sitting in the last twenty years? It can be a slog. This film can be a slog.

All the actors (sans Madsen) do a great job. The soundtrack is wonderful. Parts of the movie such as the Agatha Christie bits mentioned above really work well. Alas, there are some things that simply do not work. There is an overlong flashback that basically takes all the mystery out of the last act. Tarantino's narration is jarring, poorly done and unnecessary. The first hour of the movie takes that hour to tell twenty minutes of setup. Overall worth a watch for Tarantino fans and for Jennifer Jason Leigh’s fantastic performance. But like those three-hour westerns of old, I don’t see myself watching it again.… Expand

Circumstances have kept me from being able to see the 8th film by my favorite writer/director Quentin Tarantino for too long; having finally gotten to see it I can honestly say that, while by no means a masterpiece or even on the same levelCircumstances have kept me from being able to see the 8th film by my favorite writer/director Quentin Tarantino for too long; having finally gotten to see it I can honestly say that, while by no means a masterpiece or even on the same level as his previous Western, "Django Unchained", it is still an entertaining film in its own right.

The plot goes a bit like this: in the post-Civil War United States, Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson, in his umpteenth collaboration with Tarantino) is transporting a trio of dead bounties to Red Rock, Wyoming. Unfortunately for him, he gets caught in a blizzard and has to put his horse down, forcing him to hitch a ride with fellow bounty hunter John "The Hangman" Ruth (Kurt Russell) to Minnie's Haberdashery, a nearby dry goods store and inn, to wait out the storm. On the way they pick up another passenger, former Lost Causer and new sheriff of Red Rock Chris Mannix (Walton Goggins), and both men are brought up to speed on the woman (Jennifer Jason Leigh) Ruth is transporting: she is Daisy Domergue, an outlaw wanted for murder and other unspecified crimes who he is taking in to see hang. Warren and Mannix are, to say the least, distrustful of each other, but things simmer down for a bit at least until they reach the Haberdashery, where they find it far from empty. Inside are a host of other individuals including the shop's Mexican caretaker (Demian Bichir), the hangman of Red Rock (Tim Roth), a cowboy (Michael Madsen), and a former Confederate general (Bruce Dern). As time drags on, it's clear that at least one of them isn't who they say they are...Are they in league with Domergue? Maybe. You should go watch and find out. No spoilers, you know.

Now, I'll be the first to admit that as much as I like QT, he made a lot of mistakes with this movie. There's a lot of unnecessary narration within the film, and it takes away from some of the visual enjoyment of the movie. Rather than allow things to play out on-screen, Tarantino takes a much more direct approach and merely tells us what's going on, either by himself as the on-and-off narrator or through the characters. A good balance is necessary for using flashbacks as well; they can be important in explaining things that happened previous to the main action, but having too many will bore and too few will confuse. The latter is the unfortunate situation plaguing this film, and we're mostly forced to rely on characters' recognition both of each other and of things we never get to see to figure things out, which takes away a bit from the razor-sharp intelligence that has become a staple of Tarantino's works. Additionally, this is the first time he's ever committed a major sin against the Ten Commandments of cinema: half of the main cast was fairly one-dimensional and uninteresting. It should be expected that, with such a large host of "main" characters that anyone would have trouble splitting screen time and character development between them, but the effort is so lop-sided we don't even care what happens to most of them. It becomes pretty clear early on who the movie is about and therefore who the action will focus around.

Nonetheless, this film has its strengths as well, particularly the cast (full of both previous Tarantino collaborators and a few newcomers including, in a surprise move, Channing Tatum, who even gets to deliver his own monologue), the lean and mean dialogue, and the excessively over-the-top violence that is both uncompromisingly brutal and utterly hilarious in its graphic appearance (seriously, Quentin, what is it with you and people getting shot in the face?). Tarantino still knows how to emphasize character dialogue and interaction over thrills and kills, and thus his newest film maintains the spark of wit that made his works so special in the first place. Additionally, this is his first movie in which there is no truly "good" character, in the traditional sense; "The Hateful Eight" lives up to its name as mistrust runs rampant among these retches who miserably cross paths with one another, and they all, in one way or another, aren't much better than the outlaw Domergue (also, to the radical feminists out there, you crow about equal treatment but then retaliate against a female character being treated harshly because she's a killer? Come on, that's low even for you). Even Warren and Ruth, who we are first introduced to and are portrayed as the most trustworthy individuals, have their own vices: Warren confesses to the good general about a rather disturbing scene that occurred between him and the latter's son, and Ruth is quite abusive towards his prisoner due to his view of her as a sub-human criminal.

All in all, another solid addition to the Tarantino cinematic legacy that began back in 1992 with "Reservoir Dogs". Could it have been better? Sure. But it could have been a lot worse, too. The less thought you put into this film, the better. Just go enjoy it for the sheer entertainment value. 8/10… Expand

Tarantino siempre sorprende, para bien como en Four Rooms, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction o Django desencadenado, o se nos tira por el mal camino mostrándonos su faceta mas cargante y soporífera como Kill Bill vol 2 o Malditos Bastardos, yTarantino siempre sorprende, para bien como en Four Rooms, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction o Django desencadenado, o se nos tira por el mal camino mostrándonos su faceta mas cargante y soporífera como Kill Bill vol 2 o Malditos Bastardos, y nos llega su octavo film y repite género de nuevo...EL WESTERN.

Los Odiosos Ocho nos sitúa en una situación de supervivencia y paranoia, donde varios individuos, se encuentran aislados en mitad de una ventisca, 2 cazarrecompensas, una criminal, un sheriff novato, un ganadero, un mexicano , un verdugo y un general confederado, donde cada uno tiene cosas que ocultar y ninguno es quien dice ser.

Poco puedo comentar de la trama, ya que lo mínimo que desarrolle algo del film, en sentido de historia, puedo romperos la gracia, solo quiero decir que la historia es, en efecto, una historia que define el concepto de precisión milimétrica, ya que Tarantino hila una historia mezclando el western, el thriller, humor negro (muy negro) e incluso homenajeando a clásicos como La Cosa, Cluedo y por supuestos sus autohomenajes, que es Tarantino, no nos olvidemos. Todo ello aderezado por un inspiradísimo Ennio Morricone que sigue teniendo el toque, no como otros...ejem ejem John Williams.

Aunque parezca raro por parte de él, ha dejado a un lado sus tics y taras que arrastraba de films previos, y nos encontramos ante una película filmada de manera SOBERBIA, y que en efecto, como decían, tiene más pinta de ser una obra de teatro, ya que hay posiblemente 3 zonas diferentes en todo el film, pero no afecta en absoluto, es más, le consigue dar esa atmósfera agobiante y claustrofóbica que una película de este tipo necesita.

El reparto, brillante, ante actores del calibre del gran Kurt Russel, una Jennifer Jason Leight acojonante y brutal su actuación, Walton Goggins, que borda el papel y el incombustible Samuel L Jackson, que nos presenta otro personaje que puede molar y acojonar, todo en uno.

Los problemas que se le ven al film: tarda un poco en arrancar y la duración, de unas 2 horas y 45 minutos, sean a mi juicio excesiva, ya que a la película le sobra por lo menos 20 minutos, y que puede perfectamente eliminar cosas, pero no afecta al film tanto.

Conclusión, delirante, grotesca, sórdida y única, empezamos el 2016 fenomenal, a ver si hay suerte.… Expand

That's what this movie is. It's a mystery. It feels like you're right there in on the action. It's not a giant run-and-gun shooter. It's a small, contained, mystery. It's slow, and feels heavy. If that isn't your thing, then this isn't for you. But the characters are interesting, nuanced, and unique enough for you to want to invest and keep watching. If you walk in expecting some gun-slinging cowboy action, (not to say there isn't) then you'll be highly disappointed. I won't spoil the plot, but if you're also expecting all the good guys to get their way throughout the film, you'll also feel like you're leaving the film empty-handed. If you watch it like a police chief or investigator, looking for clues, listening to intonations, and criticizing every piece of information the movie gives you, you'll have a great time. There were some parts I think the movie felt like it was dragging on, but it added to the suspense and drama once the story kicked into full-gear. The sets, costumes, and cinematography were all amazing. Really immersive and realistic. I actually felt cold watching this movie.… Expand

Whether you enjoy Hateful Eight or not will ultimately be subjective based on your own preferences and biases. Hateful Eight is slow to start (a slog even) but the added exposition and dialogue serve to present the characters. The film draws inspiration from western influences as well as mystery novels. Kurt Russel and Samuel L. Jackson's performances are the standouts of the movie. There are some comedic moments added for a bit of brevity in an otherwise grisly and bloodletting film. If you stripped all of the blood letting the story itself would still be an intriguing one. Once the revelations start to occur the movie's pace picks up and has you eager to see what happens next.… Expand

Though featuring outstanding dialogue, powerful performances, and a strong plot, The Hateful Hate falls flat thanks to a sluggish pace and a striking similarity to Tarantino's other films.

And wow, was this an N-word festival or what?! So there'll be a segment of the audience that will be thrilled with that, though I think SL Jackson was overqualified for his role, but he's a regular in QT's films so that was going to happen, but he doesn't play the role well; he doesn't capture the Civil War era well at all, and as we all know that falls to the director to ensure his actors are in the proper frame of time and mind, so that's a mark more against QT than SLJ. But mega props to Jennifer Jason Leigh as Daisy for taking so much in the face! She'll need therapy after this role, seriously. But speaking of therapy, QT is crying out for it. I mean the amount of time he had to think, visualize, and plan for the depravity in this film is crazy and then to actually produce it. Wow, this guy is some kind of warped.… Expand

Set in post-Civil War Wyoming, Quentin Tarantino provides us with a visually stunning film, shot in 70 mm, but it is clearly not his best cinematic effort. This story starts slow, attempting to build its characters methodically. If you can endure the first couple of chapters, this “cinematic stage play” will develop intensively thereafter.
The plot centers upon two sets of stagecoach travelers trying to make it to Red Rock, stymied by a horrible blizzard and forced to take refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, an isolated way-point. An ensemble cast, most of whom have grudges or issues with each other, settle in for what essentially becomes a “who dunnit”. The mysteries and answers come forth in an explanation of certain conditions that existed prior to the arrival of the second stagecoach and result in a bloody and violent ending.
Not a traditional “Western”, The Hateful Eight” has garnered a wide range of critical ratings and some were punctuated with complaints about the excessive use of the “n-word” (not unexpected given the era and continuing racism of the characters with confederate convictions). The violence was also criticized, but this is a trademark of Tarantino and should be expected.
The cast includes many Tarantino veterans, notably Samuel L. Jackson as Major Marquis Warren, an ex- union hero and legendary bounty hunter, whose performance is intense and essential. Tarentino veterans include Tim Roth, Bruce Dern, Michael Madsen, James Parks and Walter Goggins. Jennifer Jason Leigh is amazing and a treat to watch as Daisy Domergue, a convicted murderer with a $10,000 bounty on her head. She’s bound for a hanging at Red Rocks. Kurt Russell the bounty hunter John Ruth, who is bringing Daisy in and hell-bent to deliver her alive to meet her maker. The cast is rounded out by Damian Bichir and Channing Tatum, in what turns out to be almost a cameo appearance for him.
The end result is nowhere near the level of cinematic brilliance of Tarantino’s masterpiece, “Pulp Fiction”, but I give it a 74 out of a possible 100; good, not great. This is not for children and some adults may feel uneasy with the racism and violence that is displayed in the second half of the film. All others should give it a try, if, for nothing else, the performances by a solid cast.… Expand

It's a mystery-comedy in a western setting in which it appears the director is trying to say something about racism in America, but never actually manages to say anything at all. Oh well, at least we get a funny whodunit kind of like one youIt's a mystery-comedy in a western setting in which it appears the director is trying to say something about racism in America, but never actually manages to say anything at all. Oh well, at least we get a funny whodunit kind of like one you would get at one of those mystery dinner theatres. You know, outside of the gore, profanity, and racism.

While Tarantino never manages to get a point across about race relations despite what appears to be his best efforts, the gory murder-mystery that forms later in the movie and outright weirdness off the characters and their interactions up until that point keep things interesting throughout.

It can be laugh-out-loud funny at times. Only in a dark, "I might have a sick sense of humor" sort of way. There's some sharp dialog and naturally goofy characters to add this sense of comedy to an otherwise bleak and gross film.

The things the director has become well-known for such as excessive gore, unique visuals, and originality are all present throughout. Perhaps even to the point that he is indulging in what could be described as his fetishes. It's certainly a very unique movie. Not revolutionary in the same way Pulp Fiction was, but I still can't recall seeing anything like this before.

Tarantino's latest effort succeeds thank to the fact that it is very much a Tarantino film. It's bloody, funny, and as hateful as the title implies. It's a shame all he manages to end up saying about racism is "hey, there was a time where white people used to openly use the n-word a lot and black people weren't happy about slavery so after the civil war they did stuff to get revenge on confederates. Also, I'm pretty sure neither were that thrilled about Mexicans. Somehow this is all ties back into racism today." It would've been interesting to see if the director has/had any profound thoughts or insights on the topic of modern racism. Regardless, the movie succeeds in it's humor and mystery. That's plenty of reason for me to recommend it.… Expand
