The 8th film by Tarantino takes place in the mountains of Wyoming during a blizzard.
2 bounty hunters, a newly elected Sheriff (traveling to his new post), and a woman set to die by hanging are traveling by stagecoach thru the mountains of Wyoming with a blizzard closing in on them. Rather than braving the weather to their set destination, they decide to hold up at an outpost where they know the owners. Once they arrive, they are not greeted by the owners, but a strange man who informs them that the owners have traveled to the other side of the mountain to visit family, leaving him in charge. The other outpost occupants include an Englishman, a cowboy, and an old army general.
The blizzard is just beginning, and will last for a couple of days at least. What could possibly happen? (Lol,, it's a Tarantino film. A lot is going to happen!)
As with a lot of Tarantino films, this has a who's who of actors/actresses in it. I mean, Kurt Russell/Samuel L. Jackson/Walter Goggins/Tim Roth/ Michael Madsen/Jennifer Jason Leigh/Zoe Bell/Channing Tatum/Bruce Dern, just to name a few. Quite the ensemble, and watching them is one of the best acting classes you could attend. It's awesome 👌

Hateful Eight is in my opinion the jewel of Tarantino's filmography. Tarantino has mature as a screenwriter, one sign of it is that the use of inflammatory language and depiction of racism takes place in context and time where the historical context gives room for it. However, I still think that he is too gleeful about the use of slurs.
The story seems at a first glance like it will lead to an obvious conclusion as it's quite canonical, yet it unwraps in a nerve wrecking, hilarious way.
Samuel L. Jackson's performance is absolutely delightful from beginning to end-he brought to life a complex character, who's multifaceted and evoques a mix of feelings that evolve rapidly as the story moves along. Walton Goggins is more plain, but he's performance is excellent.
I never watched the original version but I enjoyed the format and recommend this movie!
