"Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" - What did you think? - GoFuckYourself.com

So I saw Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

What did you think?

No Spoilers:

I saw it the other night. I thought it was... a little weird, a little slow, and a little weird. There's lots of driving around, lots of obscure 60's music. Lots of dialog. Some fun movie-within-a-movie stuff. Some GREAT acting by Leo & Brad. But... but but... I just found it pretty damn morning. It's a typical Tarantino slow-burn to epic payoff (That ending - wow). But damn if I wasn't zoning out at times.

Did you see it? What did you think? Did I miss Margo Robbie's tits?

too long.

Stick to the MCU, Mark. Tarantino is for grown-ups.

Evil Chris · 08-12-2019, 07:46 AM

I thought it was great, and I agree with you on a few points.
Acting was top notch, and I believe Brad Pitt sort of stole the show. I think he just had better scenes overall.

are you sure? most of his writing is about on par with a 14 year old mentality with a severe coke habit.

He has talent, and i've always enjoyed his movies for the most part but it's more often than not overrated nostalgia porn. His movies could have been much more if he hired an actual editor, but he was always too arrogant for that and we are left with movies that are long and drawn out with a mix of gore that is usually out of context with the story.

You’re like the top piece of bread. Everybody touches you, but nobody wants you.

I agree. Brad Pitt Stole the show.

This movie reminded me a lot of "Death Proof". There are long scenes where the actors are just talking about seemingly (actually?) stuff unrelated to the movie. What it's doing of course is crazy character building. It's a super slow burn to the epic crash, and then another slow burn to the epic car chase and truly epic beat-down.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is similar. The ultra-violent ending is gross as hell and incredibly fun and funny, but still, something is just not working for me. It seems less satisfying than QT's previous efforts to me.

He is shirtless a lot, I guess. Heard a few women say that is what made it for them.

TrafficTitan · 08-12-2019, 12:55 PM

If you aren't familiar with the manson family murders it doesn't make any sense. For example Margot Robbie character has zero relevance without that background.

Be honest. When he took his shirt off, your penis moved a little.

Yes I was, and so sorry! I forgot that I have to speak-up around you. I said "Be honest. When he took his shirt off, your penis moved a little.". "BE HONEST I SAY!".... BADDOG! Your Penis moves when you see Brad Pitt! BRAD P-- Oh forget it.

bronco67 · 08-12-2019, 09:23 PM

It's a movie which seems unfocused...and it kind of is unfocused, although after the last 20 minutes much of that stuff you might think is unimportant, like the Cliff vs Bruce Lee scene, Cliff feeding his dog, the flamethrower, turns out to be some pretty nice setup.

And that last act was fantastic. I should have seen that coming but I didn't.

it's no Inglorious Basterds, but I still enjoyed it because even a mediocre Quentin Tarantino movie is better than most other movies.

The Porn Nerd · 08-13-2019, 03:04 AM

QT has been trying to recreate the success, both commercially and artistically, of Pulp Fiction for twenty years now and he hasn't come close. Every movie since then (Kill Bill, Django Unchained, etc) have been over-stylized gorefests with little story, plot or motivation. Just all blood, guts, endless dialogue meant to sound 'hip' and senseless violence.

He's exactly like M. Night Shamalama ding-dong: one great movie, a couple halfway decent ones, the rest pure crap.

CaptainHowdy · 08-13-2019, 04:12 AM

I'll watch anything with Margot Robbie in it . . .

I'd wish that women could stay like that all of the time (she is missing a little bush for my taste) . . .

Paul Markham · 08-17-2019, 02:07 AM

It was well directed, well acted, well shot and terribly wrote. So slow boring and missed a great opportunity for another great Tarantino movie.

He could of made it about a hippy gang who were murdering celebs, with the story of Rick and Cliff running alongside it. Then keep the same ending when the break into the wrong house and get killed.

Oh great. Another critique from a dumb dickhead who reviews the film he could write better instead of the film made by a master. Good one, genius.
