Total Recall: Quentin Tarantino's Best Movies

The only movie on this list that truly sucks balls is FOUR ROOMS. A lot of guys in the military liked that fucking crap for some reason. Aside from Roth, the film was painfully stupid and unfunny, pointless and just all around excruciating.

I had to fake laugh all the way through that piece of garbage film. a friend of mine loved it at the time and I didn't have the heart to tell him that I hated it.

Doug Magee

I agree, that movie was terrible.

Janson Jinnistan

"Misbehavers" was classic. The others were cute. I never had a problem with the film.

Dec 27 - 12:39 PM

Jeffrey Donato

I agree with Janson.

Not too often I see somebody with the same name as me. That's all.

Steve Buchanan

Final scene with Roth chopping the guys finger off is pretty funny though.

Gnarls Reece

Worst role i've ever scene Roth play. Embarrassingly annoying.

Tarantino's segment was good. Better than all of his films from the first decade of the 21st Century.

If you cannot appreciate Four Rooms then maybe it's better to stop watching movies at all. It might not be the best Tarantino flick but as a Cult flick it's definetely a classic.

Joe Hart

Yeah, man, anyone who disagrees must be wrong.

Mick Travis

Whatever, man! Explain to me how FOUR ROOMS is a cult flick, because it has much cult appeal as MY BABY'S DADDY and CLIFFORD. I'd rather have a dog fart in my face than watch it again.

Dec 30 - 11:32 AM

Janson Jinnistan

Cult = small, but dedicated audience.

Dec 31 - 06:41 PM

Mick Travis

You know what Janson: it's on Netflix, I'll give it another chance as I haven't seen it in 15 years or so.

"I think this just might be my masterpiece"

Inglorious Basterds was my favorite of Tarantino's, but it's really difficult to choose. He's so dynamic, so original (while still paying homage) and is one of the few directors that can create hype for a film just by being attached to the project. Django was great. Will probably see it again in theaters.

Sam Sheline

gotta say I agree with the users more than the critics on this one: KB #2 remains one of my all-time favorites, behind only the two obvious first choices. It'll be interesting to see where Django fits into this... going to see it tonight!

Death Proof is his best film.

Dec 27 - 10:52 AM

Chris Cox

you are f*cking crazy. he even says it is his worst

Dec 28 - 09:49 AM

Dustyn Dubuque

Its just the only one you have seen

Dec 29 - 08:06 AM

Chris Calchi

so essentially..all his movies..

Dec 27 - 11:16 AM

Gabe Zia

They forgot sin city from dusk till dawn and true romance

Dec 27 - 10:44 PM

Chris Calchi

none of which were actually fully directed by him

Dec 28 - 04:03 PM

Shane Williams

Neither was four rooms, yet that made the list

Dec 28 - 07:20 PM

Mick Travis

He directed one of the "rooms."

Dec 28 - 07:43 PM

Jeff Brown

Actually, neither From Dusk Till Dawn nor True Romance were directed by him AT ALL and he only directed one scene in Sin City.

Four Rooms was an anthology piece, each essentially being a short film. To be fair, they should've just rated HIS segment, not the entire movie.

Dec 28 - 08:18 PM

Erik TheRed

He wrote the screenplay for True Romance. He used the money to do Reservoir Dogs.

Dec 28 - 07:20 PM

Rob Johnson

I liked Death Proof a lot. I HATED both Kill Bill movies.

My list would be:

1: Pulp Fiction
2: Jackie Brown
3: Inglorios Basterds
4. Resevoir Dogs
5. Death Proof

Thats why your not a professional critic

Dec 30 - 02:08 AM

Jamie Evans

Tarantino does something that hardly any writers do today, and that is he creates great dialogue! He doesn't just blow stuff up like the big name directors, he writes and directs movies that are script/language driven. That is what makes him great. The normal conversations between the characters in unbelievable situations. He makes very entertaining films. BTW, you can't beat Reservoir Dogs. That scene at the beginning about tipping, and then Michael Madsen dancing around that cop singing "Stuck In The MIddle With You". That is movie magic!

Mohd Syafiq Bin Jabaruddin

He also avoids the trap of trying to emulate real life when writing dialogues, unlike certain realism-obsessed writer.

Dec 27 - 02:22 PM

Janson Jinnistan

Pulp Fiction is the only respectable answer. That's the only reason why anyone cares who Tarantino is.

Dec 27 - 12:38 PM

hollis mills

respectfully, i disagree

Dec 27 - 07:55 PM

Janson Jinnistan

What I mean is that it's what made him the star he his today. Wunderkind young directors come and go. QT's Palm d'Or winning genre-bender was what made people realize they were dealing with a game-changer. But, no, I don't think he's managed to top it since then either.

Dec 28 - 01:16 AM

Shirlee Busch

I agree. The script of Pulp Fiction is good literature.-TB

DJANGO!!!!!!!!

Infernal Dude

Tarantino himself seems like a creepy nerd with a bloated ego but damn does he make good movies. My list would read:

1. Pulp Fiction
2. Reservoir Dogs
3. True Romance (Script)
4. Jackie Brown
5. Kill Bill Vol. 2

Side Note: Is Django Tarantino's first film w/o Sally Menke behind the editing?

Dec 27 - 01:22 PM

Jeremy Paul

Yes, it is..

Dec 27 - 05:25 PM

Gabe Zia

What about those movies Tarintino did other things besides direct? Like writing True Romance? Starring in From Dusk till Dawn? Co-directing SIn City? Why did they include Death Proof and Planet Terror as one movie? Where is Django Unchained? Why did Four Rooms have to be on this list? ANSWER AT LEAST ONE OF THESE!!!!!

Dec 27 - 02:51 PM

Rob Conlan

These Total Recalls are written before the movie they're being written in tandem with is in theaters, so Django's reviews weren't in by the release so they can't count it.

Dec 27 - 06:48 PM

Gabe Zia

ok well that answers ONE, but none of the other movies I mentioned made it, and that still confused me

Dec 27 - 10:43 PM

Francisco Diaz

Tarentino has said he doesn't take credit for True Romance or Natural Born Killers for that matter. Sin City he co-directed one scene and that's hardly worth mentioning whereas Four Rooms was a whole segment. Finally, Death Proof and Planet Terror was originally released together and therefore reviewed as one movie. It wasn't until it was released as a DVD that they were split. Hope that helps.

Dec 28 - 01:15 PM

Dave J

If you took the time to read the introduction, it "clearly" specifies Tarantino's directing credits! It does not say writing or acting, I mean if you want RT to include Quentin in other movies he's involved in that have nothing to do with 'directing" then I'm going to have to say is include them into your own list!

Dustyn Dubuque

DOES ANYONE UNDERSTAND HOW ROTTEN TOMATOES WORKS????? its based off a percentage on stick with what the original movie is.

Dec 29 - 08:07 AM

Keith Rightmyer

Grindhouse = Planet Terror/Death Proof. That is how it was released as one movie. Released on DVD as two films. I just got the Grindhouse "Theatrical Experience" on Blu-ray.

Dec 28 - 07:57 PM

Bill Heydenreich

My opinion matters... and here's why!

Dec 27 - 03:01 PM

Jesse Waitkoss

1. Pulp Fiction
2. Django Unchained
3. Jackie Brown
4. Reservoir Dogs
5. Kill Bill 1 & 2

Dec 27 - 03:10 PM

Jeff Bassetti

DJANDO takes it's place in the Pantheon of ding dang awesome QT FLICKS!

Dec 27 - 05:06 PM

Alex Law

1.Kill Bill (Both)
2.Pulp Fiction
3.Reservoir Dogs
4.Inglourious Basterds
5.Jackie Brown

Dec 27 - 05:36 PM

Erica Edwards

I have to agree

Dec 28 - 05:48 PM

Gerardo Medina P�rez

Noooo!! Pulp Fiction is better than Reservoir Dogs!

Dec 27 - 05:50 PM

hollis mills

how can people just say that. i know pulp fiction was good,i liked it a lot dont get me wrong, but it was just stupidity throughout the entire thing. from that point on was what we now see of QT

Dec 27 - 07:59 PM

Keith Rightmyer

Huh? Howe can you say PF is stupidity? I assure you that you are in the minority.

Dec 28 - 07:59 PM

Eduardo Castillo

I haven't seen # 8 and #7, but the list is silly because Reservoir Dogs is overrated. Pulp Fiction is #1 with Django Unchained now # 2

Dec 27 - 07:21 PM

hollis mills

four rooms was pretty stupid, but in the end i found myself laughing

Dec 27 - 07:48 PM

hollis mills

i should have added this in my previous comment,but death proof was by far tarantino's weakest film. i didnt all out hate the film, but it wasnt nearly close to the standards of a brillant QT movie. Fact: even QT himself said it wasnt up to his standards
