This movie was possibly Tarantino's best movie,

I have not seen the movie yet, but when I read comments like this it makes me really want to see it since I do like most of his work. Then I read other comments about it being a total mindless b-movie with only explosions and other superficial entertainment and no plot. Do you agree with those conclusions? I would find it hard to believe that this movie is better than Pulp Fiction or Kill Bill and it completely lacks anything that resembles a plot.

Do know the scene in Pulp Fiction where Vincent and Jules are about to knock on the door but they hang back and the camera waits impatiently for him? Well, that is what happens in Deathproof only the dialogue lasts an hour and a half and its not funny, witty or entertaining, its straight up painful. Someone said that this was Tarantino's intention, that grind house movies are formatted with boring filler to get you to the awesome actions scenes. The ending to deathproof was exhilarating, awesome, scary, perfect, unique etc.
