A Movie Who's Third Act is Worth the Price of Admission

Rating: 9/10 (27 July 2019)

This film is full of the Tarantino-isms you've come to expect. Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio pair so well together in this movie, you'd think Rick and Cliff really did exist. Although her screen-time is negligible and only necessary for the setup of the third act, Margo Robbie gives a respectable performance as Sharon Tate. The combination of Robert Richardson and 70mm film is a visual delight as always. While the second act is a bit slow and misguided for a Tarantino film, the third is what you came for and boy does it satisfy.. The tension and suspense debt is paid in full plus some, in what is probably the funniest, and most violent finale to a film I've seen in a long time. Do yourself a service and watch this film.
