Well acted, but I prefer a movie with a plot

Rating: 2/10 (9 February 2020)

Nothing happens in this movie until the very, and what does happen is extremely violent and gruesome.
The movie is credits for creating a great visual of Hollywood in 1969. However, Rick flew from Europe on 747, and the 747 didn't enter service until 1970, and the Tate murders occurred in 1969. It might seem minor, but since the visuals of the time period, it's an error.
So much of the plot was contrived and unnecessary. It takes about 2 hours to get him to Europe to resurrect his career, and then a voice over comes on and movie rushes through 6 months where Rick does 4 movies, gets married, and for some reason decides to move back to Hollywood with his new Italian wife while firing his best friend.
