It's good. Nice tunes, characters, scenery.

Well strewn together. Doesn't seem as long as the run time. Worthy of a rewatch.

I loved it. The dog deserves an Oscar.

But I am a Tarantino fan.

I will watch tonight.

Yes.

It's probably one of the more "fun" and accessible Tarantino movies, which, while it certainly has all the hallmarks of Tarantino movies it doesn't go overboard to the point where it would make the average movie goer uncomfortable.

expectations. It is not a traditional Quentin Tarantino movie in that it doesn't have the over the top violence and action. Much funnier than most of his movies. My wife and I were laughing hysterically at scenes, more so than others in the theater who may have been expecting something else.

Tarantino's love of the movies really shines through. If you love movies too, like I do(took a 400 level Films course at Clemson as an elective and loved every minute of it), you will appreciate it.

Here is a review from Peter Travers of Rolling Stone that may set your expectations properly to enjoy the movie as much as possible.

I would add that QT wrote a nice role for Brad Pitt

in that he is one absolutely super cool dude(even if he is down on his luck).

So many great characters and performances.

Dicaprio was pretty good also

Yes he was outstanding. I loved the little girl and their

long discussion about acting.

The roles themselves may have been the difference in which one of the two got the Oscar, they were both that good.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I still loved the dog

Yep.

Fine movie, top entertainment with good acting and fantasmic sc-ript.
