While racing toward the town of Red Rock in post-Civil War Wyoming, bounty hunter John “The Hangman” Ruth (Kurt Russell) and his fugitive prisoner (Jennifer Jason Leigh) encounter another bounty hunter (Samuel L. Jackson) and a man who claims to be a sheriff. Hoping to find shelter from a blizzard, the group travels to a stagecoach stopover located on a mountain pass. Greeted there by four strangers, the eight travelers soon learn that they may not make it to their destination after all.
Mr. Tarantino’s western tale of vengeance settles outlaws and bounty hunters around the fire to chat — until it’s time to start killing one another.
— A. O. Scott, New York Times
It crams hair-trigger racial tensions into an otherwise neutral outpost, where a mixed bag of gunslingers uneasily try to make nice during a blizzard.
— Peter Debruge, Variety
Even in the midst of what amounts to a Wild West death trip, a few performances in “The Hateful Eight” stand out, especially Dern’s quietly wild-eyed depiction of an embittered Lost Causer.
