It's OK, Not Great

Rating: 8/10 (19 January 2020)

Upon entering seeing Hollywood, I heard so many negative comments about this latest Tarantino film that I was expecting the worst. By the end, however, I was somewhat entertained by the film and pondered the possibilities of what might have happened if such and such events occurred instead of what actually took place that August evening in 1969.
Like all Tarantino films, his pacing takes its time examining the psychosis of each main character. This layered examination of each personality ends up steering the plot towards varying conclusions that one can deduce is logical. In Hollywood, DiCaprio and Pitt's actions determine the direction the Manson family will take as they launch its quest on murder.
Hollywood is another feather in the cap for Tarantino. If you have the patience and are willing to peel the onion back to dissect the writer/director's intentions, you'll be richly rewarded.
