Born in Knoxville, Tennessee, Quentin Tarantino, 51, has been one of the best writers/directors in the world for more than two decades. He has won two Oscar’s for his writing – Pulp Fiction (1994) and Django Unchained (2012).

Almost every single movie he has written has been nationally recognized as a work of art. It is honestly a surprise that he hasn’t won more than two Oscars. While IMDB ratings are based on fan opinions it is still very hard to receive more than an 8.0. With that said, almost half of Tarantino’s films are rated better than 8.0.

The following list is based off of the screenplay of each movie. He also directed all of these films except for From Dusk till Dawn (1996) and True Romance (1993).

Throughout his career he has working with countless top of the line actors/actresses such as Harvey Keitel, Brad Pitt, Steve Buscemi, George Clooney, Uma Thurman, Jamie Foxx, Samuel L. Jackson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Christoph Waltz and John Travolta.

Basically every single movie on this list is a must see film for any Tarantino fan.
[new page = 10. True Romance, 1993]

IMDB: 8.0
This is a classic thriller about a man who falls in love and does some dumb things to protect that love. The film involves the mob, cocaine, prostitutes and a nerdy comic book clerk. When the clerk falls in love with a prostitute, he goes to kill her pimp to free her for their love. He also accidentally steals millions of dollars’ worth of cocaine. When the mob finds them all hell breaks loose.

[new page = 9. Death Proof, 2007]

IMDB: 7.1
This is a segment of the movie Grindhouse that also features Planet Terror. It was a very good film that showed a lot of human corruption. Kurt Russell was exceptional in this film and his lines were all very intense. Overall the film displayed good writing and a good outcome.
[new page = 8. From Dusk till Dawn, 1996]

IMDB: 7.3
This movie might have one of the biggest and most bizarre twists in history. It is also one of the few movies that Tarantino stars in. He makes cameos in all of his films but he plays one of the lead roles in this. It is almost two separate films, the beginning about two of FBI’s most wanted that turns into a film about vampires.

[new page = 7. Jackie Brown, 1997]

IMDB: 7.5
Samuel L. Jackson has too many good lines to count in this film. It is just another brilliant film that takes a random person who is in the wrong place at the wrong time and becomes a key element in a major crime. It is simply a masterpiece of twists.

[new page = 6. Kill Bill Vol. 2, 2004]

IMDB: 8.0
This could be one of the best sequels in the history of film. With that said, it isn’t much of a sequel as it is a continuation of the first film. I think the best part of the film revolved around Michael Madsen’s capture of Uma Thurman and eventual death to Daryl Hannah. It was a great script all around but it was written best for Madsen.

[new page = 5. Inglorious Basterds, 2009]

IMDB: 8.3
This script was genius. It took a light and slightly comedic side to the American forces, especially with Brad Pitt as the leader of their outfit. With that said it was like a completely separate movie every time it dealt with the Germans. Even the way Hitler was portrayed in the famous scene when he screams, “Nein! Nein! Nein!” He brilliantly brought the film together at the end as well when the US forces met the Germans and the Jew Hunter.

[new page = 4. Reservoir Dogs, 1992]

IMDB: 8.4
The script was excellent but the way this movie was filmed made it genius. Going character to character telling each of their stories while the viewer already knew the basic outcome was brilliant. The best lines in the film however are the very first scene. They are sitting around a table at a diner or something and are basically talking about nothing but it is such a realistic conversation that the viewer stays interested.

[new page = 3. Kill Bill Vol. 1, 2003]

IMDB: 8.2
The most impressive part of this film in my eyes was turning Lucy Liu into an absolutely terrifying woman. With that said the best part of the film was the black and white scene when Uma Thurman is killing Liu’s army. Just the idea to film that scene in black and white was very powerful. Overall this was one of the most random movies that focused on the idea of the samurai. With that said it is one of the best scripts the Tarantino ever wrote.

[new page = 2. Django Unchained, 2012]

IMDB: 8.5
The best line of this film is delivered by Christoph Waltz on multiple occasions. First is the very first scene when he negotiates the purchase of Jamie Foxx from slave traders. He is just such a smooth talker. The more impressive speech however happens after he takes Foxx into a random western town and simply shoots the sheriff. He then goes through this elaborate speech backing up his story as a bounty hunter and that the sheriff is truly a criminal. Also the scene with the KKK is brilliant just based on the order of events. There is truly a lot to like about this film and if not for the next movie on the list this would be his number one film of all time.

[new page = 1. Pulp Fiction, 1994]

IMDB: 9.0
For those who have scene Pulp Fiction it is one of the best movies ever made. The amount of twists and turns that happens throughout this film is incredible. It has countless big stars such as Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta. It takes simple aspects of human corruption and turns them into a feature film. There is simply nothing bad to say about this movie from Travolta stabbing Uma Thurman in the chest to save her life to Bruce Willis and Ving Rhames being kidnapped by twisted store clerks.
