Best tarantino films

2154 duels later, Pulp Fiction is still #1 in the Quentin Tarantino ranking, with Django Unchained close behind at 1389 ELO points.

Pulp Fiction dominates with 1453 ELO points and a 67% win rate across 135 duels, opening a 64-point gap over Django Unchained in second place. This separation between ranks 1 and 2 represents the sharpest divide in the entire ranking, underlining the community's conviction that Pulp Fiction stands apart from the rest of Tarantino's filmography. Kill Bill: Volume 1 secures third with 1335 points, while Inglourious Basterds trails by just 4 points at 1331. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood rounds out the top 5 at 1323 points after 176 duels, the highest volume among the leaders. The bottom tells a different story: Four Rooms languishes at 748 points with an 11% win rate, suggesting voters consider it Tarantino's weakest work among the 13 contenders. Planet Terror sits just above at 868 points with a 28% win rate, while Sin City holds rank 11 at 1001 points.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
