On the QT – part 10, this should do it.

I’m still excited about Inglourious Basterds .
If you haven’t seen it yet, go see it or book a ticket.  It’s true to say that Quentin Tarantino is a great film maker.  Yes he’s made a few decisions I’m sure he isn’t entirely proud of, but luckily for him when he gets it right, the less [...]

On The QT – Part NEIN! (Inglourious Basterds Review)

First off, apologies for bothering you with another On the QT installment in 24 hours, but it was quite a surprise for me to get the invite to the first Irish screening of the long awaited next film by Quentin tonight (last night by the time I hit publish).
With huge thanks to Movies.ie , [...]

On the QT – Part 8

“We had rehearsed this stunt where Stuntman Mike was half in and half out of his car at what was as close to 100mph that we could safely get.  It looked awesome.  When we went for the actual take, it was going even better than the rehearsals, so I called the camera car on the [...]

On the QT – Part 7

And we go straight into the second part of the over the top revenge saga that is the Kill Bill series.  With the two films written and shot back to back they should have been one great film divided into two instead of a sequel/prequel made just to cash in.  And they were great.
With the [...]

On the QT – Part 6

“Revenge is a dish best served cold” – Old Klingon proverb.
OOO000OOO
We’re nearly at the end of this series, but we’ve still got a way to go until the release of Quentin Tarantino’s war epic “Inglorious Basterds” this coming August 21st.
Reviews from the set are telling us that no effort is being spared for this movie [...]

On the QT – Part 5

Quentin Tarantino knows movies.  Being a self confessed movie geek though, that’s not surprising.  From the gangster/heist movies that gave us “Reservoir Dogs” and “True Romance” and of course the mega “Pulp Fiction”, to the king fu movies that brought us the “Kill Bill” saga.
“Jackie Brown” comes from the influence that the blaxploitation era of [...]

On the QT – Part 4

If you’ve been following the progress so far , you’ll know that the next installment in the remembering of Quentin Tarantino’s movies is the utterly brilliant :

Released in 1994 in a whirlwind of controversy that still hadn’t quite died down from “Reservoir Dogs”, Quentin’s second film as writer / director proved that not everyone suffers [...]

On the QT – Part 2

So, on the lead up to the release of a film that I just can’t wait for “Inglorious Basterds” , by Quentin Tarantino I have been doing reviews of his films to date.
I started by finding out about a film that I had never known about, but then again nobody was probably meant to.  Thanks [...]

On the lead up to the release of the soon to be latest Quentin Tarantino instalment, Inglorious Basterds, I’m doing a review of all of his movies to date.
Upon my incredibly extensive research, I came across rumours of a never much seen first attempt of a movie by Quentin.  [...]

On the QT – Part 1, sort of

Right, so carrying on from HERE I was hoping to start with a good review of Quentin Tarantino’s first ever film – “My Best Friend’s Birthday”.  Written by Quentin in 1987 it was the first of his scripts to be made into a film.  Not Resevoir Dogs, like most would believe and if I’m [...]
