One of TARANTINO'S BEST

Rating: 10/10 (1 August 2019)

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - Movie Review
Where do I even begin with a movie like this. WoW, just WoW. Quentin Tarantino has out done himself. This is by far the BEST TARANTINO movie. The way he wrote and directed this movie is beyond phenomenal and amazing.
Leonardo DiCpario as Rick Dalton was so good. He plays a washed up actor trying to make a name for himself again in 1960s Hollywood. DiCpario captured the essence of this role and played it to a point where this role was better than his role in Django Unchained. DiCaprio one ups himself in every scene he is in and it shows.
Brad Pitt as Cliff Booth stole the show and made the movie beyond amazing. The character of Cliff Booth is the Stuntman to Leonardo DiCaprio's Rick Dalton character. The back story that is given to Cliff Booth is intense and shocking so to speak. Brad Pitt from the moment he is shown in this movie just makes the movie better. This is his BEST PERFORMANCE as an Actor and it shows.
Margot Robbie as Sharon Tate. The character is not in it all that much. Maybe close to about 15mins of total screen time and that was it. The character really didn't have to be in the movie, but when you see it. You will understand why.
Al Pacino finally makes his debut in a Tarantino movie. He plays Marvin Schwarzs a local Hollywood Agent. While Pacino's role was minor, he left a mark on the movie and it was good to see him portray this character.
Mike Moh as Bruce Lee, was done so well. He captured the feel and look of Bruce Lee and even sounded like him. There is a great scene between Bruce Lee and Cliff Booth that is both funny and bad ass.
Kurt Russell as Randy. Randy is a stunt coordinator for one of Rick Dalton's movies and also serves as the narrator for this movie. As he narrates the movie it's done in a subtle way where it keeps your attention.
There are other minor actors in the movie, But they had small parts in the movie to serve as some small backstory to everyone.
Now the dog, yes I said dog. The Dog that in this movie is great. I can't say much more about it, but it does play a major role in a few scenes. If there was an Oscar for animals. This Dog would WIN.
The music in the movie really takes you back to the 1960s. The way Tarantino captures the feeling and emotion of the music with this story setting is unbelievable and makes the movie work so well.
The cinematography in this movie is by far the BEST in any Tarantino movie. The tracking shots were smooth and clean. The editing was good and quick but added to the suspense of the movie. The interior car scenes are the best, as the camera is positioned in the back capturing both Rick Dalton and Cliff Booth.
Tarantino has made a movie that is a call back to the 1960s. The ending is by far the best and most shocking. Especially the way it was done, he had intense moments that worked for a movie like this.
This is a MUST SEE movie. Especially if you are a Tarantino fan, he knocked it out of the park with this one and it truly shows, and if you are not a Tarantino fan still go see this movie and you will understand why this movie is the BEST movie of 2019.
