Duo of Awesome

Rating: 8/10 (29 July 2019)

If I didn't walk out of Once Upon A Time In Hollywood and not loving it, I would be disappointed. It has Leo and Brad Pitt sharing the screen together. The amazing Margot Robbie and even Al Pacino! Well, the movie was very good but it was a little underwhelming.
The film is about the friendship of Rick Dalton, a struggling actor on TV, and his stuntman Cliff Booth. There's a sub plot about Charles Manson too. Now there's some great scenes in this like Pitt against hillbillies and Leo struggling on the set of a film. It just that the film feels slower paced and halfway through the movie you would be screwed if you had to write an essay on what you just saw. Quentin Tarantino is known for that. He doesn't follow the rules. However, the ending is great.
Pulp Fiction is my favorite Tarantino film but Django Unchained and Inglorious Basterds are close. This is better than Hateful Eight but not sure where I place this on the Tarantino list. Definitely not top 5 and it should have been with this star power.
