Not the cinematic journey it should have been

Rating: 5/10 (6 October 2019)

Being a big fan of Tarantino, I was looking forward to this but walked away feeling he had conned me out of a decent film or story. There is no denying Brad Or Leonardo's acting prowess and that is what gets the stars. Interesting to see Brad looking younger than Leo as each day goes by !
The film didn't seems to know what story it was telling with the resulting mess that the story arc was flimsy at the most. The build up wasn't the right build up to the climax, which itself was more of a whimper than a climax (no matter how much you try and pad out with some QT violence). Margot Robbie's character could have been played by anyone with hardly any lines or real acting to do. Had any other writer or director pitched this film, it wouldn't have got any big stars and probably wouldn't have been funded - fortunately for the money men, they were guaranteed a return based on it being QT.
the whole point of the film could have been done smartly in a 30 minute short story film.
Very very disappointing and a real case of style of substance.....
