    This hit different in the cinema—bigger, bolder, and impossible to look away from. DiCaprio and Waltz dominated every scene, and while Samuel L. Jackson’s character got under my skin, his performance was unreal. The tension is suffocating, the action explosive, and for nearly three hours, it never slows down. Tarantino’s humor, sharp dialogue, and striking visuals make this a perfect film. A western. A revenge thriller. An action-packed love story. Not many movies come close.

    I like the way you make films, boy.

    ★★★

    I went in with low expectations since it’s so hyped, has four sequels (never my thing), and sci-fi isn’t really my taste. But I watched for the culture and the slight "red pill" themes.

    Loved the action, the all-black fits, and that green-tinted, Y2K piracy video aesthetic, plus the soundtrack was great. But the middle dragged—too much re-explaining, long-winded dialogue, and filler training scenes. The pacing dipped hard before the action picked up again.

    Felt like a mix of Fight Club and Men in Black, but leaned more on special effects than its premise.

    This had me gripping my sofa like I was the one stuck in that canyon. James Franco delivers a masterclass performance, making every ounce of pain, fear, and triumph feel real. By the end, I wasn’t just watching a survival story—I was living it. Pure madness, and I loved every second!

    One room, 12 personalities, and a case that turns into a gripping battle of logic, bias, and humanity. No action, no gimmicks—just razor-sharp dialogue and tension so thick you could cut it with a knife. It’s a slow burn that hooks you from the start and doesn’t let go. A timeless reminder of how one voice can change everything. Watch it, and get ready to pick favourites—and despise a few.
