I agree with you OP, it's a great movie. However I think it's a bit disrespectful to always call this movie "a Tarantino movie".

Sure, you can tell he worked on the script, but what about the work of the great director Tony Scott ! He isn't just a yes man that did nothing on that movie !

That man is so underrated it always break my heart.

Didn’t QT dislike this film?

I don't think so. As far as I know he loves Tony Scott (and every movie fan should).

But Tarantino himself says that he would have made a very different movie with the same script.

At the time he had nothing to do with the shooting, he didn't even set foot once on the set. It's all Tony Scott's work, except for the great script and casting and music. Good recipe !

He disliked Natural Born Killers which also came out around the same time. He wrote it then Oliver Stone as director butchered it.
