Second fave would be Kill Bill Vol. 1.
But there isn’t a film in this poll that I dislike. Strike that, I’m probably on the fence with Natural Born Killers...but the rest I enjoy.
I don't really care for Natural Born Killers either. It was way too over the top and crazy and really lost the point along the way. Evidently Tarantino hated what Oliver Stone did with it as well. I'm not sure that he ever intended to direct it, but you can just see it in the film that he would have made much better choices.
The same can be said, sort of, for True Romance. I love that movie as it is, but I think it would have been much different, and I think, better if he had directed it the way he wrote it originally.
I love True Romance, though I think the weak link in the film is actually Christian Slater. Not a bad performance, but probably the weakest outside of the always annoying Michael Rappaport. Gary Oldman? Brilliant. Tony Soprano? Amazing. Patricia Arquette? Fantastic. But that scene between Walken and Hopper is an acting clinic. They are actors’ actors.
As for NBK, outside of that soundtrack I didn’t care for it and haven’t seen it since its original theatrical release.
