roger ebert was less enthusiastic; he felt that the script could have been better and said that the movie "feels like it's going to be terrific", but tarantino's script does not have much curiosity about the characters. he also stated that "[tarantino] has an idea, and trusts the idea to drive the plot." ebert gave the movie two and a half stars out of four also claiming that he enjoyed it, and that it was a very good movie from a talented director, like other critics, he enjoyed the cast, but stated "i liked what i saw, but i wanted more".
