Quentin Tarantino reveals the ‘best movie of the 21st century’ but his answer has left everyone saying the same thing

Quentin Tarantino has revealed the 'best film of the 21st century' but people have all been making the same comment about his answer.

The American filmmaker, 62, is best known for the likes of Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained, and Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood.

During a new interview on 'The Bret Easton Ellis' podcast, in which he slammed a certain actor for being 'f*cking weak', Tarantino revealed his top 10 movies since the beginning of the millennium, with the likes of Toy Story 3, Dunkirk, Midnight in Paris and Zodiac making the cut.

But it was one movie in particular that nabbed the top spot.

“I liked it when I first saw it, but I actually think it was so intense that it stopped working for me, and I didn’t carry it with me the way that I should’ve,” Tarantino said.

Yes, Tarantino named Ridley Scott’s Black Hawk Down the best movie of the 21st century, calling it a 'masterwork'.

“Since then, I’ve seen it a couple of times, not a bunch of times, but I think it’s a masterwork, and one of the things I love so much about it is […] this is the only movie that actually goes completely for an ‘Apocalypse Now’ sense of purpose and visual effect and feeling, and I think it achieves it.

"It keeps up the intensity for two hours 45 minutes, or whatever it is, and I watched it again recently, my heart was going through the entire runtime of the movie; it had me and never let me go, and I hadn’t seen it in a while.

"The feat of direction is beyond extraordinary.”

Based on the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu in Somalia, the movie tells the story of a group of US soldiers who helicopter into the East African country on a routine mission.

Starring Josh Hartnett, Ewan McGregor and Tom Sizemore, the film sees the soldiers caught in an unexpected attack, which forces them into a battle, resulting in the death of 18 Americans and hundreds of Somalians.

Picking just 10 movies must be pretty tricky for Tarantino, and everyone was left making the same comments after reading about the filmmaker's choices.

One person wrote: "If they asked him an hour later, he'd come up with an entirely different list."

While another said: "That was then and this is now and tmrw he will say a different movie."

And a third added: "I thought this guy said that The Social Network was his favorite film of the 2010s (and it didn't make his top 20 list). Strange..."

Tarantino has also spoken about his own movies, previously revealing the film he was ‘born to make’.

During an interview on The Church of Tarantino podcast, he said: “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is my favorite, Inglourious Basterds is my best. But I think Kill Bill is the ultimate Quentin movie, like nobody else could’ve made it.

“Every aspect about it is so particularly ripped, like with tentacles and bloody tissue, from my imagination and my id and my loves and my passion and my obsession.

“So I think Kill Bill is the movie I was born to make, I think Inglourious Basterds is my masterpiece, but Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is my favorite.”
