it was ok, not the worst film I've seen by any means. I wouldn't watch it again, which is my personal benchmark of whether I find a film good (or bad) or great, but yeah, if you haven't seen it, it's worth watching.

I think most people forget that a film can be about escapism, or enjoyment, without it needing to be some genius masterpiece with a clever twist, or a deep message. Go in with the idea it's a few hours of entertainment, and you'll be much more likely to enjoy it than thinking every film, QT or not, needs to be some revolutionary epic masterpiece of perfection.

ps nobody gives a fuck if you or I enjoyed any film, because newsflash, we all experience a different movie... I think gone with the wind, wizard of oz, and numerous other 'all time great' films are bags of shit and can't sit through them at all... doesn't make the film(s) bad, just makes them not to my taste.

the racial hate was bit much for me... not my idea of escapism :2 cents:

It's pretty obvious that a few people in this thread have some serious issues with themselves. I mean thought I was miserable but jesus fucking christ. Maybe I'm not. :thumbsup Now I just need to stop coming to this stupid site! :1orglaugh

There's already enough of that on GFY :1orglaugh . . .

I agree with you on this point. It gets old quickly.

Bunch of babies. They're like 'but but if Quentin Tarantino can drop n-bombs, why can't I??????? Wahhhhh Wahhhh! IT'S NOT FAIR!!!'

I liked it, but they could have saved the libby letter at the end.

I would speculate the opposite - he is using it to show how bad and evil whitey were, installing white guilt emotion. I speculate this based on the common knowledge that he is a libby. And also based on Lincoln letter installment at the end.

Funny thing, I thought of you at the ending of the movie.
You reviewed some comedy movie about some black kid and at the end of that movie was "what if I was white" libby ending which you did not like.
Watching the ending of H8 I thought you would not like it as well :)

I watched it when it came out and like it a lot. it is a typical QT film. Lots of profanity, blood and guts. The story had a real arc as well.

I do agree it was ott, I 'got it' with how bad it was at the time, he belabored the point he was obviously making. Can't agree that taking that out would have made the movie any less of the escapism it patently is. It's QT - no matter how 'new' and 'fresh' he was at any time, he isn't anything other than an entertainer... and he does that pretty well.
