Critic Reviews for The Hateful Eight
The Hateful Eight may really be sort of terrible. While it's not his best film (it's far too long and indulgent at times), Tarantino absorbs the audience into a scene, compelling you to look at each and every inch of it--indicative of many vintage films (his usual film playground).
The Hateful Eight Extended Version - the miniseries recut from Quentin Tarantino's original 2015 film - is back on Netflix this week.
Plot. In 1877, bounty hunter and Union veteran Major Marquis Warren heads to Red Rock, Wyoming, with three bounty corpses. His horse gives out, and, faced with a blizzard, Warren hitches a ride on a stagecoach driven by O.B. Jackson.
