The Apex of Tarantino's 9 films...

Rating: 9/10 (28 August 2019)

Although "Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood" imbues an inchoate aura, it does - however - succeed in its depiction of the antiquated beauty of cinema during the 1960's. It's redolent presentation of this era also contains outstanding cinematography, with DiCaprio's visage and bravura of "Rick Dalton", who is meticulous in his representation of the character's impediment. As for Pitt's "Cliff", the character offers an insight into the adroit of a stuntman - whilst also elucidating Cliff's ingrained intonation, which ultimately coalesces Rick Dalton's act. Forbye, DiCaprio and Pitt out-perform one another, whilst Margot Robbie further augments this idyllic image of retro Hollywood; irrefutably, this picture is the superior of Tarantino's 9 films, which merely adumbrates his intentions of the 10th and final film he shall direct - will it be his best?
Initial Rating - 8.9/10
