Once upon a time in Hollywood

[antipop]

Short version: I slept during a movie made by Tarantino with Di Caprio and Brad Pitt !

Longer version: Tarantino has become his own cliché: shots of feets checked, Nazi getting burned checked, revision history checked, reference to old movies checked, reference to bruce lee checked ...

The story is all over the place and you have very long scenes that contributes nothing to the story. The actors play perfectly and the camera movements are amazing so any cinephile will love that. Too bad he forgot that it needed a story or people would get confused, then bored and finally asleep.

I guess Tarantino has finished drinking his own Kool-Aid and now believes in his own hype. We're very far from Pulp Fiction or Kill Bill on this one.

I'm even more disappointed that one of my favourite movie is Once upon a time in the West and Once upon a time in America is a masterpiece. This movie doesn't deserve that title and doesn't tell that story.

ps: I'm too young to get 80% of the references...
