Quentin Tarantino’s Finest Movies In Throughout His Career
Few directors have such a distinct style that you can tell a movie is theirs without any previous knowledge. In my opinion, one of those directors is Quentin Tarantino. Tarantino manages to showcase his personality and unique sense of storytelling in any movie he is associated with. His is one of the true auteurs of his generation, and the movie business is better for having him around.
But which of Tarantino’s films can be considered his best? The following films are what I consider to be his best.
No list of Tarantino films would be complete without giving mention to Reservoir Dogs, which was the breakout film for this iconic director. This film was done on a severely limited budget, but with a star cast including Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi, and Michael Madsen, you might not realize that.
The story of the “The Bride”, or Kill Bill as it is better known, has to be one of his best films. In my opinion Kill Bill: Volume 2 was the stronger film, just because it struck a better balance between fight scenes and story lines. Both movies are awesome though.
It is tough to make a list of Quentin Tarantino directed or written films without mentioning the Mecca of his movies, Pulp Fiction. This is easily one of my favorite movies of all time and it is amazing it didn’t win an Academy Award for Best Picture. That’s what happens when you go up against Forrest Gump and The Shawshank Redemption in the same year.
One film of Tarantino’s that does not get enough love is Jackie Brown. This is an excellently executed script featuring a star studded cast including Pam Grier, Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Keaton, Robert De Niro, Chris Tucker and Bridget Fonda.
One other film that I absolutely loved was Inglorious Basterds. My girlfriend does not like many movies, but this one won her over. That is a good benchmark for me in knowing a film is great!
These are just some of my favorite movies of Quentin Tarantino, however in my opinion all his movies are great and worth seeing.
