A very good movie

I already saw this movie many times but, since it was a while back, I thought I might as well check it out again. Well, first of all, even though it might seem hard to believe but, for many many years, Quentin Tarantino was actually struggling to make his first movie. Eventually, after many failures, he came out with this feature and the rest was pretty much history. I remember very well when this movie came out, there was a huge buzz around this flick. Anyway, it had a huge impact and it is rightfully consider one of the best directorial debuts ever made. In my opinion, it is actually one of Tarantino's best movies and, even though ‘Pulp Fiction’ was even better, afterwards, I do think that he just went downhill from there. Indeed, this movie was great because Tarantino couldn't do everything he wanted at the time and he couldn't go on and on in his egotrip that has became most of his recent features. Basically, limited in space, time and money, he produced some of his best work and there was here some amazing writing, directing and acting. Harvey Keitel made with this movie a really impressive come-back here but the rest of the cast were just as amazing and they all provided some really strong performances. Indeed, for Tim Roth, Steve Buscemi and Michael Madsen, it would be the movie that gave them their breakthrough. Almost 25 years later, Tarantino would make ‘The Hateful Eight’ which was pretty much a Western remake of his directorial debut and, even though it didn’t get much love, in my opinion, it was the best movie he made in years. Anyway, coming back to our main feature, to conclude, it is a great movie, it is definitely worth a look and it is pretty much a must see for any decent movie buff.
