Just finished the extended version which I liked way more than the theatrical cut. The characters are far more fleshed out, there are more clever set ups and foreshadowing. It's a different experience from the film and worth a watch for both fans and those who've never seen it.
NOTE: There was one frame that wasn't rendered in episode 3 which was very odd. Please fix that Netflix. This crew didn't bust their asses to shoot this in 70mm just to have an intern not render the export properly.
100/100
I wasn’t prepared for this. Obviously, I went into The Hateful Eight with the same expectations as I do with every newly-minted Tarantino flick. I wanted snappy dialogue, grand moments of violence, and masterful sequences of flourishing character, and I got all of that, for sure. However, I didn’t expect to walk out of the theater with a stupid grin on my face, barely able to walk because of the rampaging poignancy and blazing hatred woven through every frame. Going even further, I also wasn’t ready to ponder the question of whether The Hateful Eight was legitimately my new ‘favorite film’.
Yeah, you read that right. Hell, even I was stunned. A new Tarantino? My F-A-V-O-R-I-T-E film? What the…
It's winter in Wyoming, post-Civil War, USA. A bounty hunter, his $10,000 female bounty, another bounty hunter, a recently elected sheriff, an old war general, a hangman, a silent cowboy, and some fella named Bob all cross paths at Minnie's Haberdashery. Who can be trusted? Where's Minnie? Will it ever stop snowing? It's QT's 8th film about 8 hateful people. Now, who wants a drag from a Red Apple tobacco hand rolled cigarette?
Not only was 2015 the year of the western, but it's the year of the Kurt Russell mustache. My lord! From Bone Tomahawk to The Hateful Eight, Kurt's facial hair is fuckfabulous. You can't help but think of John Carpenter's The Thing. People trapped in the snow.…
Watched the “Extended Version” on Netflix, which means I finally got to see this movie the way Quentin Tarantino intended: Awkwardly chopped into four episodes on my iPhone.
More on this weirdness at ScreenCrush.
i saw this last night at the hollywood theater in Portland and Quentin Tarantino himself randomly showed up and did a surprise q & a and im still too in shock that he said hi to me to write a review
"Youuuu gonnaaaa maaaake aaaa deaaalll
withhh thissss diaaabolicaaalll biiiiiiiiitch!?!"
Hugely visceral & downright disgusting.
Tarantino's best film since the 1990s.
Jennifer Jason Leigh steals the show.
(Honorable mention for Goggins, obviously.)
The deadliest, bloodiest, and most entertaining game of Clue ever played.
Samuel L. Jackson and Walton Goggins were fucking fantastic. All of the performances were GREAT, but those two were the standouts for me.
Quentin Tarantino has once again created an all around well-made film. The writing is great. The dialogue is top-notch. The cast is freaken awesome. The performances are amazing. The action is absolutely brutal. And the visuals are incredible. Wether you like Tarantino's films or not; you can't say he doesn't know what he's doing.
The Hateful Eight is a bloody good time with some very memorable characters.
It’s my birthday and I’ll watch The Hateful Eight for the trillionth time if I want to

SYNOPSIS: In the dead of a Wyoming winter, a bounty hunter and his prisoner find shelter in a cabin currently inhabited by a collection of nefarious characters.

The action is set in antebellum Wyoming, in the heart of a raging blizzard, in a frontier bar. The setting is very important here.

The Locked-Room-Mystery-Evil-Cabin-Western America not only apparently deserves but supposedly could stand to use. The Hateful Eight is A Horror Movie more than it is anything else. The Morricone Cues from Exorcist II and The Thing as well as the David Hess (!) song from The Last House On The Left are clues enough but the threat here is not Demonic Possession nor Alien Invasion but the Accrued Evil of the United States In Action, with all parties at each others' throats in a scramble to suppress those on the bottom cruelly and violently until an error happens and the tables are turned, for however long, and common cause is made only in violence against another. This is Grand Guignol Home…
Could be 5 stars if tarantino nutted up and traded at least a couple n bombs for close ups of jennifer jason leigh’s grubby fur trapper feet
Watched the extended episodic version on Netflix, which I enjoyed a bit more than slogging through the original—if only because I could spread it out over a few nights. This cut strikes me as being a bit more comedic, but it doesn't redeem this mean-spirited, blood-soaked take on a revenge Western. You're better off watching Rio Bravo.
This movie is a lot better than I remember it being. I noticed quite a few more thematic elements that I missed the first time. Still the worst Quentin movie but I think that says more about how amazing his filmography is than it does about this movie being bad at all cuz it is really good.
The most underrated Tarantino film, in my opinion. Yeah, the first hour is boring as balls but once we get to the lodge, it’s like Clue on crack. For some reason i always come back to this one. *chefs kiss*
here I am, still pining away for that quiet prairie Western starring Michael Madsen, maybe three other people, and a mule. those soulful eyes deserve at least an honorary Oscar, dammit; let’s get that Tarantino kid on it.
