Review of Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood (2019) by P2Ska — 28 Aug 2019
Where to start with this one. Well, i've liked most of Tarantino movies from the past and always enjoyed smart dialog and fun over-the-top scenes. But this last installment is kinda disappointment - it lacks the stuff expected from Tarantino: to be actually entertained.
Instead what is offered is 3h journey to the 1969 which was really well done, alas uneventful. Sure there are few Pitt scenes that stand out but those are it - rest of the film is like forced and mandatory 60s commercial.
Tarantino brings all his childhood crushes and influences to the screen - Polanski, Bruce Lee, stuntmen, riding cool cars, moviemaking backstories and business, watching movies in cinema etc - lots of bowing to the past glory days.
Actors performances are fine but fail against weak story. 4/10 and never watching it again, any of his previous films are far better.
