The Hateful Eight - Reviews

...it explodes into the meanest, most gruesome and nihilistic violence of Tarantino’s career, only to conclude on a disquieting note of hope.

The movie is filled with playful and curious surprises: not just of the plot twist or character-revelation variety...

Tarantino has created another breathtakingly stylish and clever film, a Jacobean western, intimate yet somehow weirdly colossal, once again releasing his own kind of unwholesome crazy-funny-violent nitrous oxide...

The Hateful Eight has its claws in you.

...everything you’d expect from this exasperatingly unruly writer-director: cinematically adventurous, generically self-conscious, entertainingly performed, editorially ill-disciplined.

En spændingsmættet whodunnit i en setting designet til en venten på Godot. Et fatalistisk knytnæveslag lige i ansigtet og en stilistisk magtdemonstration.

...guderne skal vide, at beskæringen af billedet, hvor bred den end føles, aldrig er bred nok til at vi til fulde ved, hvad der foregår udenfor og under billedrammen. Det er frækt og provokerende – og det virker.

...aldrig ointressant.
