A Variety Of The Best Movies Directed By The Incredible Director, Quentin Tarantino

By Colin Richards


Few directors have such a distinct style that you can tell a movie is theirs without any previous knowledge. In my opinion, one of those directors is Quentin Tarantino. Tarantino manages to showcase his personality and unique sense of storytelling in any movie he is associated with. His is one of the true auteurs of his generation, and the movie business is better for having him around.

When it comes to choosing Quentin Tarantino's best movies, it is not such an easy task as they are all great. Here are my top five favorites.

Reservoir Dogs ranks in as the number 63 film of all time according to the Internet Movie Database, and with good reason. This was one of Tarantino's first films, but still remains one of his best.

Another incredible film by Quentin Tarantino was Kill Bill: Volume 1. Many people get into heated debate about which film from this duo is better, volume 1 or volume 2? For me, Volume 1 set the precedent and is the better of the two movies.

Tough to compile a Quentin Tarantino best of list without giving praise to Pulp Fiction, which is considered by most to be his masterpiece. This movie stars John Travolta, Bruce Willis, Uma Thurman, Ving Rhames, Samuel L. Jackson and Tim Roth, to name a few.

One film of Tarantino's that does not get enough love is Jackie Brown. This is an excellently executed script featuring a star studded cast including Pam Grier, Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Keaton, Robert De Niro, Chris Tucker and Bridget Fonda.

The last spot on my list goes to Inglorious Basterds, Tarantino's latest creation. Sure this movie is a work of fiction, but if you take it as such, it becomes a very enjoyable movie very quickly. One of the better films of its year.

Hopefully there are one or more films from the great Quentin Tarantino on this list that you have yet to see.
