Sky Movies asked Quentin Tarantino for his top 20 movies post-1992, the year of Reservoir Dogs’ release and the result is the kind of varied list of genres and filmic cultures as you would have expected from him.
Raised eyebrows for a few which I couldn’t possibly let slide… Woody Allen’s Anything Else (the one with Jason Biggs) and Team America: World Police somehow made it, alongside Police Story 3 – but it’s a personal list after all.
He even finds time to bitch-slap The Matrix sequels (which has ruined the experience for him of watching the original, and I would agree) and wins uber-respect by calling Unbreakable “one of the masterpieces of our time”. I’ve said it for years damnit!

Team America is one of the smartest, funniest, and sharpest satires to come out in ages. It’s also probably the best comedy of the past few years. Anyone who dismisses it is simply an idiot.
I won’t dismiss Team America. Worth the money I paid to see it. Funny and intelligent in places. Plain stupid in others. Not one I would need to re-visit.
This year’s Brit entry In The Loop takes Team America in a battle of Top Trumps Satires under any category, I’d say.
