Good movie. But for me "Inglorious Basterds" is as close to a perfect movie as it gets. Even alot of the second and third tier parts; from the opening scene with the French father, to both of the officers playing the card game in the basement..And if anyone EVER deserved the Supporting Role Oscar that they won, it was Christoph Waltz.
"Pulp" 2nd, "Django" 3rd. I'd say it's his 4th best. -

Yup, this is the only QT movie with a really strong emotional center (well, Res Dogs, with Tim Roth and Harvey Keitel is something in that direction also) as well as complex, nuanced characters that aren't merely cinematic constructs or cooler-than-thou apparitions. And with all that, QT effortlessly retains his signature style and vibes and humor - only now it's more grounded and given a more weighty context. As outrageously entertaining as Pulp Fiction is, Jackie Brown is easily his most accomplished work - and will probably remain so, even though The Hateful Eight was a rather unexpected return to form after many years.
