A-Typical for Tarintino--hoping Trek project is less boring!!!

Rating: 5/10 (3 December 2019)

I was thrilled to hear Tarantino was doing a Trek film, and figured this film would help boost that anticipation I'm feeling
It did the opposite. I'm now less hyped than ever for his Trek project, and considering the ideological turns his most recent film is showing signs of -- I'm leary to say the least about his 10th upcoming project.
As for his 9th (this film):
Not enough action. No, I wasn't looking for another Pulp Fiction, and what little we got was somewhat realistic--but I seriously expected to see a *SPOILER* Charlie Manson appearance, and hopefully--a murder or two at his hands.
What I got was an off camera post credit assumption that yes, Manson killed these people eventually, about 5 minutes after the credits roll....
and after seeing the lead up to why maybe Manson chose the victims he did from the characters in the film--it suggested their murder had motive and wasn't just senseless. That was the real insult, we were denied seeing that play out. *SPOILER*
What we got, was a double dose of Tarantino's female foot fetish (and unfortunately, no girls desperate to pee like he also tends to throw into the mix--fetishes are fine with me) and some action... but did we need to see Leo freaking out about acting so much? Those scenes would have been better filled by--the Charlie Manson murders I think most of the viewers were expecting.
I sure was.
Not as terrible as Ocean's H8, Not as bad as the Supergirl plan to kill all former supermen of the 21st century with their F rated (F as in FAIL) crossover event--but only slightly less disappointing than Avengers and Dark Phoenix turned out being.
If this is what we can expect from Tarantino in his 10th film--I hope the 10th is his last, because he's clearly losing steam or had to sell out to some extent to even get his projects green-lit.
Sadly, hollywood producers are trying to sell idealism to an audience that just isn't interested in politics when they're tuning in for theatre. Theatre is what we engage in to escape political issues-don't fill our films and series with it anymore. It's very unoriginal, and if you haven't noticed yet: is causing your studios to lose money... to the point Disney can afford to buy them all.
