Tarantino Making more Award Winning Movies

Rating: 9/10 (19 January 2020)

This was a classic Tarantino movie, a huge build up for the last scene which is full of violence and gore. The problem that I was having with the movie, was that I was having trouble figuring out the plot and the main conflict. It didn't hit me until after the movie that the conflict was Rick Dalton (Leo DiCaprio) believed that he had officially become a "has been" and was worried and disappointed at himself for becoming that man. I just relieved that by the end of the movie he finds that he is still appreciated and loved as an actor. Having that plot graph and to see that conflict be resolved by the very end of the movie was really cool. I also understand why Tarantino won a Golden Globe for his directing in this one. In a way, this was a movie within a movie, and to see the behind the scenes shots of actors calling for lines or messing up scenes and having to rewind the camera angles to restart, was very cool. To see that aspect of filmmaking was amazing and there is no doubt that he would win the globe because of it. The acting was good as always, it was cool to see Rick Dalton break character when he was filming, and it shows the wide variety of DiCaprio and all of his skills in that business. Overall, a fun movie to watch, and very well done.
