The Hateful Eight

[Mike Weaver]

Saw it last week.
Best Morricone score since the 60s, wonderful photography and a good story, but I'm afraid I'm not that impressed with QT's skills as a writer. Comparisons with Reservoir Dogs are risible. 

Having heard he'd chosen Walton Goggins because of Justified I was very disappointed with the words he gave him to say. Having watched the final series of Justified a couple of weeks ago, my reaction to Hateful 8 was almost to start over on series one. There are so many utterances by WG, or conversations including him, in the series which were head and shoulders above everything in the film script.
