> ...And then there were none. I'm neither Tarantino nor Nolan's fan, but love watching their movies. As usual these director's films are highly expected by all, that's including me. This one started off quite like a normal western, so I thought it wouldn't be like the director's previous film 'Django Unchained'. In fact, it was considered for a sequel to that, but the director felt this story ...

Quentin T is on a downward spiral for sure. The film has it's moments but the endless profanity added to the fact there are no sympathetic characters make this a letdown. Too much gore and excessive violence near the end as well.

_The Hateful Eight_ is a fantastic western tale of deception that I loved. Only Quentin Tarantino can fill almost an entire movie with just dialogue while still being captivating and engaging.

Okay, maybe I'm just biased because my genre is "sci-fi and fantasy" but I really thought with such big names like Samuel L Jackson and Kurt Russel that this would be a good one. Sorry, but a western and people lost and trying to get from nowhere to nowhere. I give every movie the 10min test and if it doesn't get better after that, then it's NEXT ...
