Simply One Of QT's (and 2019's) Best

Rating: 9/10 (12 December 2019)

Here the thing about Quentin Tarantino and Once Upon A Time in Hollywood - no matter what your opinion on him or his movies is, it's one of Tarantino's best, with a lot of heart and love for movie making, for building characters and relations. No 2 of his movies are the same, or even similar. This one is its own category. One just can't deny that QT is amazing at what he does. The movie needs to be watched at least 2-3 times, because one definitely doesn't pick up on every detail the first time around, despite its lengthy runtime, which is really not too long for a standard Tarantino movie. There's a lot of long takes, great dialogues, hilarious jokes and a grand payoff at the end. The movie gets better with each viewing and is 1 of 2 of my favorite movies of 2019. Maybe my favorite, because there's other director-auteurs, and then there's Tarantino, one of a kind.
