I honestly hated these films. Ebert says it's the best of the year. Are movies better now when they don't take themselves seriously, and have no virtual plot? I don't know.

Tarantino is basically a one-hit wonder. I wasn't impressed with many of his films, and yet he's compared to Scorsese and Coppola as a mob-esque directing genius. Tarantino is almost good enough to take tickets at a Scorsese film's premiere.
