Tarantino has one more movie in to join the list of his legacy as the director has been quite clear that his upcoming flick The Movie Critic would be his last. Tarantino has also made several astounding cameos including his own movies. Also being an avid screenwriter who writes his own movies, secured two Oscars in the Best Original Screenplay category in 1995 for Pulp Fiction and in 2013 for Django Unchained.
Pulp Fiction is undoubtedly the best work of Tarantino which stood the test of time still engrossing fans. Now, The Movie Critic has been the most ambitious movie of his career with the immense buzz surrounding the movie since its announcement. If he decides to retire from directing after his 11th movie there will certainly be a void in Tarantinoesque filmmaking. Still, one must respect his decision as it all comes down to the creative and personal choice.
