Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood: Great actors with a poor fairy tale.

Rating: 5/10 (21 December 2019)

Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a television star who has a career going downhills, and his stunt double/friend, Cliff Both (Brad Pitt) tries to help him with everything he asks. Meanwhile, Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie) is living his best life in Hollywood.
That's the plot. Don't expect anything else. This movie is a dramedy that should last half of what it actually does. 2 hours and 10 minutes of this movie are full of drama about how bad is Rick's career going. And showing us how he is a really good actor. On the other side of the story, we will see how Cliff is doing with his career that is also going downhill but he is hot so who cares. Meanwhile, Sharon Tate is just there for people to see how gorgeous Margot Robbie is, also to make us love her in case she's killed by the Manson family, you already know what really happens.
I didn't like this movie, but I didn't hate it either. Allow me to explain myself; I wanted to like this movie because I love the Sharon Tate case. Also, I think that Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio are amazing actors. And they were pretty good. Leonardo DiCaprio carries the whole movie; I love most of his scenes, he's charming and it makes you love him. Even when the story is boring, you really want to see what Leonardo DiCaprio is going to do next.
Brad Pitt has a great scene, and it's the Bruce Lee scene. That scene alone is the second best thing in the whole movie. But that's it with Brad Pitt's character. He has a scene in Rancho Spahn that is superficially tense but I actually find it quite useless.
The ending is whole other level. It's full of action, and it has been so far the best of the whole movie. But it feels like another movie so I don't know. I would like having more scenes like that in this movie.
This movie gets 5 out of 10 because it's so slow and boring sometimes but the acting is so great that saves the movie.
