Quentin Tarantino menyebut film pasca-pandemi sebagai “pabrik sosis tanpa rasa”: “Saya lebih suka membaca buku”
Quentin Tarantino has written a scathing assessment of modern Hollywood, calling it “a flavourless sausage factory” that no longer inspires him. The Oscar-winner, famous for films such as Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill, wrote for Sight and Sound Magazine recently to discuss his feelings about the type of films being made currently. “Sejak pandemi… rasanya hampir tidak mungkin ada film baru yang tidak saya pilih,” katanya. “Flaws, implausibilities, audience pandering, miscast performers or just plain stupid shit usually torpedoes every new movie coming out of the flavourless sausage factory that used to call itself Hollywood.” He continued: “These days, the entire concept of what is a movie is more inclined to inspire contempt in me than generosity. Which is fair enough, because by comparison the movies of the last six years make the ’80s seem like the ’30s.” Sutradara kemudian memeriksa beberapa film yang dia nikmati dalam beberapa tahun terakhir. “I’ve seen movies I’ve liked since then — West Side Story (2021); Horizon: An American Saga — Chapter 1 & 2 (both 2024), a few others, but nothing that really held me in its grip and swept me away to the magical land of enjoyment that I used to visit and was the reason why I loved movies above all artforms,” Tarantino said. “Saat ini saya lebih suka membaca buku.” He also mentioned 2026 film The Rip, starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, which he described as “an exciting cop thriller with a novel premise that manages to deliver the goods in really clever ways.” “Seluruh paket berhasil untuk saya,” lanjutnya. “(Joe) Carnahan’s direction, the splendid cast, the look of the film (courtesy of cinematographer Juan Miguel Azpiroz) — but the real powerhouse component of this splendid collection is the sensational screenplay by Carnahan and Michael McGrale.” Quentin Tarantino has been vocal about his taste in cinema, causing controversy last year after criticising actors Paul Dano and Matthew Lillard. Banyak nama Hollywood yang mendukung Dano, sementara Lillard mengakui kritik pembuat film tersebut “menyakitkan”. Sutradara saat ini sedang mengerjakan produksi teater London bertajuk The Popinjay Cavalier, yang akan dibuka pada tahun 2027.
