Very Quentin, But not so Tarantino!

Rating: 8/10 (29 September 2019)

I didn't go to the movies to watch Leonardo DiCaprio, or Brad Pitt, or the guest apprentice of Al Pacino. I went to see because of Tarantino. Tarantino, the creator of the iconic character of Uma Thurman in Kill Bill . Tarantino, the father of witty scenes such as "I dare you, I double dare you" or the Russell's garage, those mexican stand offs, those details, those witty dialogues, those glamorous violence!
Now talking about, once Upon a Time in Hollywood whether these Tarantino signatures are there! There it is, very well. At the same time, there are strategies for pairing stories in parallel. Editing is awesome, Los Angeles in the sixties was masterfully crafted, but there was something missing!
What are those?
I did not find anything comparable to the unforgettable scenes of Pulp Fiction.
Violence is much less, though, when it comes to Tarantino style! Everyone laughed at the characters' plight.
The first half of the film is quite slow, but everyone knew something will happen. But the time until the original suspension of the second half was made is quite frustrating.
More attention has been paid to Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt. The powerful side character in Tarantino's cinema is not here. Although there were attractive characters like director Roman Polanski and Cult leader Charles Manson, he didn't show them at all. .
What are the good things?
The conversation with Leonardo DiCaprio at a little girl's shooting spot was both fun and touching best scene in the movie. Brads scary appearance Manson's ranch was top notch. And I got the classic Tarantino in the Humor Violence of the End scenes.
The people who watch this movie have a little clue about Charles Manson. But Polanski's wife has something to do with it, which is not shown in the movie, but if you know the thing, you'll have more fun.
Caprio did a wonderful job. Brad Pitt found his the character he suited best.
So, how did it all feel? Will not fall into Tarantino's best work, nothing is iconic, but there has been a good movie. And if you are obsessed with 60's Hollywood , you will enjoy it more.
My rating - 7.5 / 10
