Edit: I don't think a lot of people understood what I was getting at when I first wrote this review. Like I said, it's a phenomanal movie, but I simply cannot condone the ending. It's one thing to depict graphic violence if it's either a) stylized to a point where it is completely unrealistic, as is done in movies such as "My Bloody Valentine 3D" or b) meant to horrify the audience, like in movies such as "The Hunger Games" or "Hacksaw Ridge." It's an entirely different matter when the violence is there simply to supply the audience with some twisted sense of childish glee. It's not that I can't stomach or "get over" gore. It's that there was no reason, and it aided the story in no way. The same script with tamer, whackier violence would have worked just as well, yet the victims are shown being brutalized beyond recognition - and for what? For fun? The movie was perfectly fine without it. That's simply my opinion, however, and I'm raising it to a six simply because the rest of the movie was phenomenal.

@dastenhero have you watched any other Tarantino movies? Blood and gore is his trademark as a director. I was really happy when I finally saw it happen at the end :)

@Devalabra Mac Quayle does the music for this show, he's amazing. He also happened to make the music for my favorite show ever, Mr. Robot

@dastenhero Luca, my man... get your shit together... this movie isn't worth 1 and you know it... I never comment on other people's opinion but yours is just...wrong and unnecessary
