I'm not a big fan of Tarantino's newer stuff in general. The performances in "The Hateful Eight" nearly saved it for me, but I just think Tarantino can't get out of his own way as a writer at this point. I thought the script was just cringe-inducing. While I wasn't a giant fan of either "Django" or "Inglorious Basterds", where he basically ripped the Hans Landa character straight from a film called "The Passage" with Malcolm McDowell, "The Hateful Eight" was the first film where I thought his writing was really starting to show huge cracks.
