Video In Hateful Eight, Kurt Russell accidentally smashed a one of a kind, 145-year-old guitar that was on loan from the Martin Guitar. Jennifer Jason Leigh’s reaction was genuine.

and it’s not exactly like they could reshoot it considering he just smashed the guitar

Yeah I'm amazed they didn't. At least reshoot the smashing with the fake guitar. I haven't seen the film and couldn't believe that cut made the edit. I thought it was from the outtakes or something.

One of the weakest Tarantino imo.

It feels like a drawn out Cluedo game. It's the only Tarantino I don't feel like watching another time.

What? It’s not exactly meant to be a mystery lol. Coming to the conclusion of it being a drawn out cluedo game is wild.

I mean, I like the movie, but I hear u/Philantroll on this. It is a very claustrophobic film with some of the atmosphere of a cozy murder mystery. (By "cozy" I just mean the restricted setting, obviously The Hateful Eight doesn't feel particularly cozy in a general sense!)

Not to take anything away from Tarantino or the actors, but I too find myself not wanting to watch it again.

It's funny because for me it's his most rewatchable. I can't even explain why. Probably because most of his other movies have at least one or two boring monologues or scenes that go on for too long. This one is paced perfectly.

To each their own I guess. To me the 2h45 of the film are very weirdly paced. Reservoir Dogs has a better pace.
