Some of the earlier ones like Fargo, Oh Brother and The Big Lebowski were brilliant (in my opinion) but the later ones lacked the originality and humour of the earlier works

I've enjoyed Tarrantino films but never thought they were as great as people said.

I agree with you about Tarantino peaking with Pulp Fiction and then there is Robert Rodriguez and M Night Shyamalan to add a couple more who made some great early films but couldn't match them later on

Arrival........heard it was great, but I just didn't get it. Agree with this...it essentially went at a snails pace and went nowhere fast...have to say I'm surprised at the number of times that momento has come up in others posts...I thought it was a great film.
