Saw it in the theater. There were some parts everyone laughed at that I wasn't expecting. My verdict is still out for this movie. I don't know whether I loved it or didn't like it. It's been a few days and I still don't know what my verdict is. I think if I graded it objectively, not knowing who made it, then I'd be a little more harsh. But I do like QT, and and I liked a lot about the movie. I wish it had been 20 mins shorter. The 4 strangers chapter could have been shortened, as could have one of the first 2 (Last Stage to Red Rock and Son of a Gun).
I do think QT's really feeling himself right now, and it shows. I thought there were so many n bombs that it actually took me out of the movie, because a lot of them felt shoe-horned in. I understand it was post Civil War and that a lot of people probably used the word back then, but I'd love to get an n word count between Django and this. It wouldn't surprise me if this actually had more. It's like QT heard people complain after Django and said "fukk it, I'm going to do even more this time."
Sam Jackson and Walton Goggins made the movie IMO. I wonder of Tim Roth's character was meant for Christopher Waltz? Was the Lincoln Letter real or not? Thoughts? I kinda think it was. Did Jackson really make the Southern general's son suck his dikk? I liked how you were never sure what Jackson was saying was true or not.
I wish they gave Michael Madsen a bit more dialogue, but he did good too. I liked Tim Roth, but he really seemed a lot like he was almost doing a Waltz impersonation at times (the bit about justice needing to be dispassionate and when he first asked to see Daisy's county). I didn't hate Channing Tatum as much as some people here, but I thought his part was too small to judge either way.
Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill, and Django Unchained are still probably my favorite QT flicks. I have this near Inglorious Basterds, which I didn't like as much as a lot of people did.
