Entertaining even without a plot

Rating: 6/10 (16 August 2019)

The movie isn't slow like some people are saying, it just lacks a deep plot. Everything feels very shallow, like QT wanted to make a compilation of short hollywood tales. The pace is good, makes you laugh a lot with clever dialogues but you just keep wondering when the QT style will pop up, which happens only in the last 15 minutes. So for 2 and a half hours I was happy, anxious and delighted by the actors performance, but feeling really empty.
Also, you MUST know who was Charles Manson and Sharon Tate BEFORE seeing the movie, otherwise everything will makes no sense. I know this may be very trivial for americans, but on other countries (Brazil, in my case) the murder didn't have the same repercussions and lots of people doesn't remember who they were. I know its a movie made in America, by an american, for americans with every possible reference to their culture, but Quentin knows he has a huge audience all over the world, and didn't even bother in saying Charlie surname to refresh the memory of those who were lost.
