Personally I think the "BEST" film he made was probably Django Unchained.

My favorite is Inglorious Basterds

Kill Bill 1 & 2 were good fun but fairly shallow.

Honestly, my favorite is Reservoir Dogs.

I actually think it's his worst by a considerable margin. The second is a lot better.

I'd say Vol 1+2 together is my favorite Tarantino film. It's hard to separate them for me.

How is it hard to separate? One feels like a martial arts movie and the second one feels like a western.

Because it's one story broken into two parts.

I can see having a hard time seeing LotR as separate movies because they all three feel the same, but it's crazy how different Kill Bill volume 2 feels from the first.

I'd have to agree. It's not his best film by a more objective metric, not the best written or acted, but the technical marvels, library's worth of nods and cinematic history he packs in, and sheer all-around fun of the movies makes them my favorite. It also had the honor of single-handedly getting me into spaghetti westerns and various japanese films.

Vol 1 is more of a western than people realize. Or rather, one of the points of Kill Bill is that so much of our Western film heritage is taken directly from Japanese influence.

You misunderstand my post. Im not unable to understand people like his movies. Im just saying personally Pam Grier is the only reason Id say I even came close to enjoying one of his movies.

More like Kurosawa and Co. were influenced by westerns, then westerns were influenced by those Japanese movies.

i think his worst was the kurt russel car one that was in grindhouse. not a bad movie but it just doesnt hold up to the rest. hateful 8 is 2nd worst tho.

i always go back and forth between reservoir dogs and inglorious bastards being my favorite, but pulp fiction is right behind em.

Didnt read any posts in this topic but I just finished inglorious basterds and I can easily say no:

I was just going on and on about how amazing of a director he is and how he isnt seen that way because he decides to be so graphic with his content. I absolutely love every single one of his movies, but I think its a toss up between pulp fiction and inglorious basterds in which one is his masterpiece. I tend to lean toward whatever one I saw last. Right now Id say without question its inglorious basterds.

I absolutely can not wait for his next (and possibly last, but probably not) film.

For some reason I never could get into Kill Bill like I do with other Tarantino movies. It's not bad, but it's just not as good as his other movies to me.

From what I've seen:

Pulp Fiction
Jackie Brown
Reservoir Dogs
Django Unchained
Inglourious Basterds (It has many great scenes that I still think about a lot, but the movie as a whole was kinda meh to me.)
Kill Bill
Death Proof

Great
1. Pulp Fiction
2. Reservoir Dogs
3. Inglourious Basterds

Very good
4. Django Unchained
5. The Hateful Eight
6. Kill Bill

Good
7. Death Proof
8. Jackie Brown
