[@TimLoyalToWifeHaterFreeZoneA]

Love It WatchMojo.

[@williamsummerson1204]

Would have put Once Upon a Time in Hollywood a little higher.

[@michaelmonthey5974]

I think Watchmojo should have waited to release this video until after Tarantino released his last movie, “The Movie Critic”.

[@adamhoward1408]

I fully doubt that there is any bad Tarantino movies out there

[@SuperCisMan]

WatchMojo REALLY needs to re-title this video. Maybe just call it "Ranking Tarantino movies" period. Because there ISN'T a "worst" Tarantino film. Show some respect.

[@henriq19]

I love Kill Bill , probably the best action movie with a female character as the main character , but Pulp Fiction , ironically the same actress of Kill Bill , is just iconic , one of the greatest movies ever made

[@Adam-jr1ks]

Oh god lol

[@pokeythescowlingcat6221]

@@Adam-jr1ks?

[@shejal8904]

Did you know that she actually is the actress for the bride...i mean she says it in the movie that she was getting the part for the bride roll

[@LKMNOP]

Reservoir dogs was the best. No fat on it, starts out bang right at the beginning. Great acting. Beats out pulp fiction hands down

[@ofdrumsandchords]

Let's say some of the thousand greatest movies ever made. I don't want to be rude.

[@LeonardoKlotz]

Hollywood needs the old-school auteurs like Tarantino more than ever

[@NickCC23]

Seen all the Tarantino movies. Will never forget the thrill of seeing Pulp Fiction for the very first time even close to thirty years later.

[@MyClinton123]

These will always be my Top 5 of Quentin Tarantino films: - Kill Bill Volumes 1 and 2 - Django Unchained - Inglorious Basterds - Pulp Fiction - The Hateful Eight

[@criticalmass33]

The Hateful Eight is criminally underrated

[@fresnoniiji]

yeah thats in top 5 imo

[@bayerhead]

Top 3 for me.

[@diogovieira9199]

top 2 or 3

[@pete6705]

Agreed. I only put Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill ahead of it.

[@JohnJohn-zn8ib]

The characters were real scumbags and played their parts well, would have been a wild time.

[@camaronshoultz6137]

Jackie Brown is my all time favorite Tarantino movie!!

[@brandonsmith5974]

It's definitely at least top 3. I don't know why it gets hated on so much.

[@YolandaAnneBrown95726]

So criminally underrated!!!

[@vermillionthree]

@@brandonsmith5974 its because a lot of people hate narrative movies. movies like jackie brown, there will be blood, killers of the flower moon. etc. i love a story driven movie any day.

[@samhasnoplan7631]

I love this film too, and it’s his most underrated film

[@BigEvil007]

Same here easily

[@that.canadian.vaper.guyTCVG]

Tarantino is my favorite film maker of all time, his pacing, structuring and cinematography is just phenomenal. But what makes Quentin Tarantino such a master class in cinema, is his dialogue. His dialogue for his characters are just smooth as butter and filled with charisma. Tarantino dialogue is possibly the closest dialogue to actual human dialogue in the real world taken to the big screen. But my all time favorite Tarantino film is Inglorious Bastards. My sister showed me his films as a kid and I grew up watching them, but Inglorious Bastards was the first Tarantino film I actually experienced first hand and it was amazing.

[@zamioloriegbe9533]

The dialogue is so well written, highly underrated movie

[@JohnJohn-zn8ib]

It might be like that in parts of America but I thought his films were more satire like, like Pulp Fiction (bullshit fiction), he's good at sending up the movie industry.

[@exile220ify]

For a change you got it mostly right - I'd bump Django up into the top three tho.

[@WatchMojo]

uh...thanks!? lol

[@seanacklandauthor]

Tarantino has become his own genre and True Romance and From Dusk till Dawn are Tarantino films.

[@Storm23PS3]

Pretty sure they are just talking movies he directed...not if he wrote them. But I agree he is definitely his own genre.

[@josh72456]

​ @Storm23PS3 I can confirm they said those he directed and written but shhhh for Natural Born Killers to Tarantino.

[@vermillionthree]

Except that….they’re not?

[@josh72456]

@vermillionthree Well written by them I think if someone has written a script or screenplay it's still theirs maybe it's just they don't have the practical responsibilities which director has more of that.

[@scottp1001]

I consider both of them Tarantino films since he wrote and starred in them (and I am sure had some smaller uncredited role in the direction). I'd put True Romance at #2 and From Dusk to Dawn about 4 or 5.

[@mr.decencykeepinitreal6348]

My few most favorite Quentin Tarantino movies are… ‘Pulp Fiction.’ ‘Kill Bill: Volume 1.’ ‘Kill Bill: Volume 2.’ ‘Django Unchained.’

[@fmcdomer]

The ones I've watched the most Inglorious H8 Kill Bill Pulp

[@fmcdomer]

Djengo

[@jonastheproducerjojoondabe5586]

I was like this too, but then I watched Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and it went to number 2 spot after pulp fiction. I didn’t like it it at first and was confused, then I watched it again and saw the true picture

[@JohnJohn-zn8ib]

Pulp fiction, bullshit fiction.

[@johnnydripp]

Once Upon a Time In Hollywood and The Hateful Eight are easily his most underrated

[@Father_Daniel]

I can definitely agree with that

[@josh72456]

@johnnydripp I'm not into the revisionist history films though Inglorious Basterds I can take and The Hateful Eight well it's interesting that one wasn't revised history bit it's not my favourite either.

[@nathanslay6342]

Both excellent films.

[@josh72456]

@nathanslay6342 I'm not really into the ending of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood I think it's well-made but when Quentin Tarantino does revisionist history I'm not really into them I can take Inglorious Basterds. The Hateful Eight I don't think is one of his best but again well-made.

[@trinaq]

Great call, Pulp Fiction is definitely my favourite Tarantino movie. The characters are memorable, the quotes are iconic, and it's told out of order, giving it a unique storytelling device. ❤

[@corymorimacori1059]

“Cut me a Tylenol, stop rhyming y’all!” Quentin Tarantino

[@ronafay66]

Django should’ve been in the Top 3! It’s supposed to be uncomfortable and it’s the most unique film in his filmography . Ranking it so low because it’s “uncomfortable” to watch is an insult because ALL of Tarantino’s movies are uncomfortable to watch

[@vermillionthree]

i have a pulp fiction tattoo and i like django better. such a perfect film.

[@Denis-89]

It was just to long, to talky. Nothing really happened!

[@paulistastars]

which one would u take it out? I might change the order of the first 3, but taking any of them for django, which is a move I love to death, is impossible for me

[@vermillionthree]

[@nathanslay6342]

Pulp Fiction is a masterpiece!! And my favorite film of all time!

[@mike91mdk45]

Jackie brown i have a bit higher. A good slow burn caper. What QT did for travolta with pulp fiction he did for pam grier

[@LKMNOP]

Reservoir dogs was the top film. Nothing was extraneous in it. It starts out immediately with you being able to see the dynamics of the group and who was over whom in the hierarchy. You can see characterizations already in that breakfast scene. Fabulous.

[@michellescott1211]

It will always be Reservoir Dogs for me. Saw it in the cinema and was totally blown away. At the end, people went mad and clapped for ages. Never seen a reaction like that in the cinema before and just fell in love with Tarantino right there and then.

[@undyingforce]

Mojo touched my mojo with this list. Many thanks.

[@batgurrl]

Excellent choice for Pulp Fiction because it goes Full Tarantino in every aspect ❤️even though he wrote it, but didn’t direct it, I love True Romance. Jackie Brown is underrated

[@chelseacanales8763]

I agree with #1 Pulp Fiction is the best Tarantino movie ever

[@josh72456]

@chelseacanales8763 Yes of course.

[@paulc1553]

My top three: 3. Kill Bill: Volume One. 2. Reservoir Dogs. 1. Pulp Fiction.

[@hayes064]

One that could have been added was “The man from Hollywood”, a segment written and directed by QT in the movie Four Rooms. Great part of the movie, very well written and acted 👍🏻

[@adityamanivannan6067]

My top 5 is a controversial one but here we go: 1) Pulp Fiction 2) Once Upon a Time in Hollywood 3) Jackie Brown 4) Death Proof 5) Inglorious I love every single one of his films though don't worry!

[@damionh7218]

Every few years or so these all deserve a rewatch. I watched kill bill and pulp fiction so many times I don’t remember how many. Used to watch those 2 even when I wasn’t old enough to do so

I ❤ ‘Django Unchained’; ‘Kill Bill: Volume 1’; ‘Kill Bill: Volume 2’ and ‘Pulp Fiction.’ 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@micahcaraballo5917]

A theme that appears in pretty much all of Tarantino’s movies is REVENGE. And dang it, he makes revenge look so badass!! Not to mention a little bloody 😅

[@Bribrig4l]

Jackie brown is severely underrated, Pam grier did amazing. It's weird how ppl rate so low cuz it wasn't bloody&gory and more substantial, but whatever true fans love it.

[@ProdKamoReef]

As much as I love all Tarantino’s films I think we can all agree that Pulp Fiction is 1 and Inglourious Basterds is 2

[@xr4ti548]

The tavern scene Inglorious Basterds is one of Tarentino's best scenes in any of his movies.

[@TimmyD3085]

I can’t wait for his next and final film

[@dagwood3434]

There isn't one bad movie on this list....the fact that death proof is his "worst" just goes to show how epic of a director Tarrantino is

[@aarongalloway3311]

interestingly enough, I just watched rewatched Jackie Brown yesterday and I was thinking about re-ranking it on my list Tarantino movies

[@joseveijanen6520]

Natural Born Killers was also written by Tarantino. Oliver Stone made it so weird, I love that movie.

[@pete6705]

That is an awesome movie. But Quentin hates it, and hates that his name is on it

What’s the best QT movie? The question is making this clear, it is Pulp Fiction even before I analyzed the question!! 😁😁

[@catothatidiot5243]

Hurts to see the Hateful 8 so low. Love the tension and narrow setting

[@nathanslay6342]

I’m with you on that. The Hateful Eight is awesome!!

[@MrTbk1701]

Both Kill Bills are my favorite but I figured Pulp Fiction was gonna be number one.

[@drekt2753]

Jackie Brown has always been my personal favorite even though I know it isn’t his BEST film. I just love how the story is told and his shout outs to De Palma with the split-screens. It contains my #1 Sam L. Jackson performance and has one of the best soundtracks of all time. Also just love the cast of characters and all the actors who play them.

[@cameronrobinson3933]

You know I might have ordered it a little different but I might not have I think this list is in a pretty fair order I'm glad that Kill Bill Vol 2 was given a lower rating than volume one because volume one to me is a more enjoyable movie though Kill Bill volume 2 is also incredible

The story of Inglorious Bastards is great but the dialogue of Plup Fiction is unmatched

[@AlmightyBruce]

9: Death Proof 8: Reservoir Dogs 7: The Hateful Eight 6: Kill Bill 5: Inglorious Bastards 4: Django Unchained 3: Pulp Fiction 2: Jackie Brown 1: Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood

[@TenThumbsProductions]

Bastards at 2 is a pretty hot take. Over Kill Bill vol 1, Django and Reservoir Dogs… I knew Jackie would be low, but I think that is his 3rd best.

I always struggle to rank his films as they’re all good to masterpieces but pulp fiction is always my number 1 pick. If I had to pick a top 3 it would be pulp fiction, kill bill 1 and django

[@messejp]

My Top 5 1. Pulp Fiction 2. Reservoir Dogs 3. Kill Bill Volumes 1 and 2 4. Inglourious Basterds 5.Death Proof

[@jason-xp9wf]

Obsessed with death proof so much such a shame it’s constantly overshadowed by so many of his movies

[@Father_Daniel]

Inglourious Basterds and Pulp Fiction would prob be my top 2. I also LOVE Django, Reservoir Dogs and OUAT in Hollywood. Really like Jackie Brown and the Hateful Eight. Not a fan of deathproof and I never know how to rank the Kill Bill movies. I saw them in theaters and never really re-watched them. Now I want to go do it. lol

[@mvpfireant5188]

Every year my favorite QT movie is different. Last year it was Django. The year before it was pulp fiction. Before that Once upon a time in Hollywood. Just did a Kill Bill rewatch, and Kill Bill Volume 1 takes the best spot for me currently. I think it’s my favorite action movie ever

[@zbennalley]

This is probably the only time that any of the top 5 in this list can be switched around in any order, and I wouldn't necessarily disagree with it.

[@witchbvrner]

Fun fact; The showdown at the House of Blue Leaves goes black and white to avoid an NC-17 rating.

My favorite is once upon a time...brad and decaprio are amazing! Two of my favorite performances. Next for me is django unchained. Hateful 8 is 3 for me..i do love westerns. Inglorious bastards #4...great movie. #5 kill bill 1 and 2. I do group these together. #6 pulp fiction. #7 jackie brown. #8 resevoir dogs. #9 death proof. This list changes for me because i love all of these movies!!

[@pete6705]

I’ve seen every person rank QTs films differently. And I think that’s a good thing. The only thing I would argue is that Pulp Fiction should always be #1. That is his biggest movie, the one that made him famous, and the one that created millions of QT fans. But after that, the rest could go in any order. Personally I go: Pulp Fiction Kill Bill 1 &2 Hateful 8 Jackie Brown Inglorious Basterds Reservoir Dogs Django Once upon a time in Hollywood
