Review of Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood (2019) by Wasptar — 14 Dec 2019
One of Tarantino’s worst films. All style over substance and you are just waiting for a plot twist or just anything interesting to happen. I usually love his work but I’m left a little shocked at what a non event this movie is.
If you want a documentary of life around this time then you’ll be satisfied with the indulgent subject matter, but if you’re expecting another great entry into Tarantino’s filmography prepare yourself for disappointment.
The reason for this failure? I think it was the Manson family plot line that probably seemed a great idea to frame the narrative early in the writing process, but just ended up literally sending the director up a creative cul-de-sac.
