This is not on par with Pulp Fiction...

...or many other QT movies. Not even close.
This is a movie that QT seemed to create for himself.
I liked the 60s references and a few of the scenes (here and there), but overall the movie is a disappointment. I like QT movies, so I was looking forward to this one. But it rambled on far too long and really didn't end up anywhere.
The story could have been much better, especially for the very long run time. In fact, I feel it could have been better even with 45 minutes less screen time. This is the first QT movie that I was looking at my watch, hoping to leave the theater soon. I don't mind long movies...if they have a compelling plot. This movie was a mess.
The story of the Manson Family Members and the Sharon Tate murder could have made an interesting script, especially in the hands of Tarantino. I'm confused as to why this fell on its face so hard.
DiCaprio's character was so-so, but he played Rick Dalton well (with what he was given).
Brad Pitt did well with his character (Cliff Booth) and was the more interesting than Dalton. Heck, Booth's dog was more interesting than most of the characters.
I guess Robbie did well as Sharon Tate, but she didn't have a lot to do.
Al Pacino did a good job as Marvin Schwarzs. I was dubious of the type of role he was going to have in the movie, but it worked well.
It's not the worse movie that I saw this year, but don't expect it to be anywhere near the level of Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill, Jackie Brown, ...
