Pulp Fiction is ste. Annoying, overrated, nowhere near as clever as it thinks it is, total excrement from start to end. .

That's how I feel about Reservoir Dogs.

That as well. The only Tarantino film I can even bear to watch is Inglorious Basterds (the spelling, gnnnnnn), and there's parts of that I hate too. His films are all style over substance, whilst managing to trick seemingly millions of people into thinking there is some substance behind the style. They are all unmitigated guff.

Having just watched The Hateful Eight on Netflix, I find myself in total agreement with most the above. (I haven't seen Inglorius bds).

I tried to watch Inglorious Basterds yesterday on Netflix, after the initial endless talking talking talking i got so bored I skipped through the rest to see if anything interesting at all happened, which from what I saw it didn't. Agree also about Pulp Fiction and RD, total pretentious crap, great style but no substance at all.

I like Pulp Fiction and have watched it several times over the years. Didn't care for Reservoir Dogs, haven't watched IB yet and probably never will, have just started Hateful Eight which I will watch in small pieces until I decide whether I like it or not.

Most overrated films of the 80s:
- Big Trouble in Little China
- The Goonies

In the last couple of years, I have rematched some films to see if my memories had been coloured by nostalgia. Good grief, The Goonies was bad, but Big Trouble in Little China was absolute dog-st. A huge pile of steaming excrement. My partner had never seen Big Trouble in Little China, and it merely played into her (misguided) belief that any film made before 2000 is generally crap.

TBH I've never understood the reverence for The Goonies. Disliked it at the time, and time has not mellowed me. But Big Trouble in Little China, I actually liked at the time.

Apocalypse Now is a tedious self absorbed tiring ramble to watch and Marlon Brando is just an incoherent mess.
