Like I said, I thought The Hateful Eight was beautifully shot, with stunning cinematography, production design and art decoration, authentic costumes, props, facial hair, and make-up effects.
I don't know if it would have engaged me more if the overall story and dialogue was a little more 'lean and mean' like Reservoir Dogs, but I didn't feel the story necessitated a three-hour running time so there were several occasions when it felt a bit baggy and 'talky', causing my attention to wander.
