easily his worst, most boring and least inspired film.
I'm a fan of his movies too. AND westerns.
He'd have to MAJORLY fuck up to make his (supposedly) 9th and last film any worse.

...personally I don't fall asleep watching films at home, but sometimes I do check out if I get bored.
That's why I try to see the majors ones in the theater where they were meant to be seen.
In the theater I found this one fascinating, if uneven like a lot of his stuff.
are far too wordy as a result of him thinking he's clever. This is his greatest fault: being overly clever just like Chris Nolan.
But it's been a steady decline since with not enough story ligament to meld his various great scenes into
a whole, tasty enchilada. Jackie Brown being the most obvious exclusion and his most cohesive film, it
being a "tribute" and all.
He's NOT a film maker I'll miss when he's gone, nor a guest on any talk show, et al.
He's very much remained an obnoxious puer aeternus sort and that's seeped too far into his films.

wouldn't have improved the vapid, stilted dialog OR wooden overacting.
The sound system in a theatre might (just might) have kept me awake with the door slamming/nailing, wind whooshing and stagecoach ruckus et al.
There was likely loud gun fire at some point too, but never will make it far enough to find out.

Finally finished it the other night. Barely OK, just above Death Proof Car. As opposed to any number of Tarantino movies, we have no desire to see it again. A twist of sorts at the end? Story told out of chronological order? Hours of typical Tarantino dialogue? Lots of people getting shot? Duhhhhh. I did like Jennifer Jason Leigh's character. She was one crusty ol gal.
