THE HATEFUL EIGHT
December 3, 2016  | By David Bianculli

Showtime, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

This 2015 Western, written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, is a wonderful entry in the genre – a character study with twists, turns, meaty monologues and sizzling set pieces. A bounty hunter seeks shelter from a harsh winter storm in a Wyoming cabin filled with nefarious characters, each of whom has a story, a secret, and an attitude. Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Walton Goggins and Demian Bichir are great, but Jennifer Jason Leigh, as the only woman in this wild bunch, is even greater.
