Typical Tarantino, in a bad way.

Rating: 3/10 (9 December 2019)

I'm not the biggest Tarantino fan, but I would consider myself a fan. I was excited about this movie, but waited for the digital release because I didn't think I could handle the long run time. I'm glad I waited. Unfortunately, this film suffers the same issues as many of his other films, but worse. Tarantino writes fantastic scenes. That can be said for nearly every one of his films. But putting them together in a film that tells an interesting story is where he drops the ball. This film has many interesting standalone scenes, but once I finally made it through the full move after 3 days, I was left with a sense of "What did I just watch?" I'll admit I'm too young to care about the setting of this film. If you aren't a huge film buff or emotionally connected to Hollywood in the 1960's, you probably won't care either. I think the success of this film relies heavily on that and the name Tarantino. Essentially, it's 2 and a half hours of Leonardo crying, Brad Pitt acting cool, Margot Robbie going to the movies, and feet. Lots and lots of feet. Watch at your own risk.
