I just loved it

Rating: 10/10 (14 August 2019)

I loved everything about this.
Could easily be spoiled, so if you plan to see it don't talk to anyone who has seen it.
Not that it has a twist in it, not really - I realise "spoiler" might suggest a twist, but it would be a shame to know how it all turns out in advance, aside from the obvious.
It's a 10/10 movie for me, though I wouldn't necessarily say it's his best film, then again I'm not sure.
I'll see it at least a couple more times before the month's out!
I think it really helps to be into movies of the time, and to know something about that time in Hollywood, not essential, but might help quite a bit. In any case if you love movies, and a certain era of cinema in particular you might struggle to be disappointed.
Some reviewers said it dragged a little in the middle - it didn't for me.
Some others said that Margot Robbie's Sharon Tate had too little to say or do, whereas I felt she was great, and just about everything she needed to be, perfect actually, with consideration to other things going on around her, and it's not really about her. Though there is a lovely quality to her presence overall... right into "Once Upon a Time..."
Brad Pitt and Leonardo Dicaprio are great, and every other big name's relatively small part was never a waste of screen time.
I recall reading that Tarantino had considered a longer cut, and I hope that emerges at some point down the line.
Anyway, go and see it!
Got an 18 in the UK for strong violence and gore, which appears to be predominantly subject to scenes of movies within the movie, and in that regard it's rating might seem a little too heavy - I swear! ;-)
