Even though this is a beloved movie, Tarantino doesn’t really like it. The director has previously stated that he’s not a big fan of “feel good” comedies and that he doesn’t really like Bill Murray.
As Tarantino says: “Interesting characters are not always funny and vice versa.“. The director also thinks it seems forced how Murray’s character becomes a good person in the end. According to him, the focus is on the study here, without making Murray’s story really interesting. Watch the trailer below .
Natural Born Killers
Interestingly, Tarantino himself took part in this project. He wrote the script before Oliver Stone started working on it. Even though Stone kept the most important part of the story intact, and Tarantino is listed in the credits as one of the writers, Stone made some adjustments.

The Hunger Games
While the Hunger Games is a blockbuster franchise, Tarantino is definitely not a fan of it. The reason for this? According to the director, it is a copy of real battle 2000. This Japanese film is one of Tarantino’s ‘all-time favourites’, so he regrets that this film is not getting enough attention.
As Tarantino says: “‘The Hunger Games’ is based on Suzanne Collins’ 2008 book. She has always said that she was not inspired by ‘Battle Royale’. Even though the story is almost identical, Collins has always said that she has never seen ‘Battle Royale’…“
Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolution

When the second Matrix movie came out, called ReloadedTarantino’s also came Kill Bill: Volume One since. The director feared that his movie would not be a success because of this, but when he saw the second Matrix movie for himself, he put all his worries aside.
