A laid-back fable

Rating: Null/10 (26 July 2019)

I saw the movie at an early screening and I liked it. I'd even venture to say that this is the best movie Tarantino has directed since "Kill Bill".
The best way to describe this movie would be as a laid back fable, a what if story and a bit of a word play on the title "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood".
Throw in some alternate history and a cautionary love letter to movies, actors and all the other elements which make up Hollywood, and you got yourself an entertaining film to watch.
It is also much funnier than I expected. Pitt and De Caprio are the one-two punch combo of the movie and they deliver in spades through their performances and on-screen chemistry. Margot Robbie, the movie's third focal point, has an almost ethereal presence in the movie. Not through dialogue heavy scenes, but her almost muse like appearances.
This might not be Tarantino's best movie or a masterpiece, (something
many seem to expect each of his movies to be) but for me at least, it is a solid cinematic effort.
