For those who've followed Quentin Tarantino's career over the past several years, news that "The Movie Critic" will be his last directorial effort isn't much of a surprise. For a while now, he's maintained that his 10th movie would be his last — a decision he's made not because of money or tiresome Hollywood politics. Rather, as he explained in an interview with CNN's Chris Wallace, he's calling it quits after 10 because he doesn't want to stick around the moviemaking scene longer than he has any right to.
"I'm an entertainer, I want to leave you wanting more...and I don't want to work to diminishing returns. I don't want to become this old man who's out of touch," Tarantino shared, admitting that he already feels he's entering such territory when it comes to the modern film landscape. At the same time, this doesn't upset him. It's just a natural occurrence for those in the industry. Therefore, in his eyes, it's best that he completes his filmography with 10 films he can be proud of instead of going until the wheels fall off.
If "The Movie Critic" will indeed enter production in a matter of months, expect plenty of information about it to reach the internet very soon.
