So after finally getting round to watching Once Upon a Time a couple of nights ago, I present my ranking of Quentin Tarantino movies from my favourite to least favourite.

Note that all of these movies are 8/10 or above for me (and I've counted Kill Bill as one film)

1. Inglorious Basterds
2. Pulp Fiction
3. The Hateful Eight
4. Django Unchained
5. Jackie Brown
6. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
7. Reservoir Dogs
8. Kill Bill
9. Death Proof

How about everyone else??

I would agree at least 8 out of 10 or above.

Mine would be similar although it has been a while since I have seen Jackie Brown or Reservoir Dogs. Also, need to watch Once Upon A Time again so I have more of the details. I felt like it ran past quickly at times.

1. Pulp Fiction
2. Inglorious Basterds
3. Django Unchained
4. Kill Bill
5. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
6. Jackie Brown
7. Hateful Eight
8. Reservoir Dogs
9. Death Proof

"I think I was graduating from college, yeah. It was just so fresh and amazing, and the storytelling, you know, changed cinema forever. I just loved it. And it brought back John Travolta. Every character was incredible, and I loved its really dark sense of humor. Like, literally some of the hardest laughing I’ve ever done in my life was when John Travolta accidentally blows the head off that guy. [laughs] Making that funny is such a feat. The comic sensibility of Quentin Tarantino never ceases to amaze me."

I've come to the conclusion that I don't particularly like Quentin Tarantino and this film is no different. There are many parts of this film that just seem to be screen fillers and don't provide much to the story whatsoever. It seems like an overload of so many characters, it feels like he's trying to tell 5 different stories at the same time and it's not working that well.

Additionally, the worst part of this film is the ending. Shoshana should've been recognized and I feel it was a huge failure to not have Landa know what she did. After everything he did to her family and all that she'd been through, he deserved to know. I also didn't really understand his plot, nor Brad Pitt's. This film feels very messy to me and not cohesive in the slightest. I don't know what it is about Tarantino but the more I watch, the more I dislike him.

"It’s known as the lost Scorsese movie. It’s a documentary he made about his friend Steven Prince, who worked in the music business in the ’70s – the height of their drug use. Marty, who was already a hot filmmaker then, is in it and talks 200 miles a second. The main character is fascinating, and so honest, snatched out of the Hollywood and music business and drug culture of that time. Steven Prince tells the story that Quentin Tarantino used for the needle in the chest in Pulp Fiction (1994); it had happened to him, he had put a magic marker on a girl’s chest and plunged an adrenaline needle into her heart."
