This is the only Tarantino film that I did not see. I am very glad that I did not see this at the movie theater, because I would have walked out.
During the waning days of the Golden Age of Hollywood, the movie follows, an aging television star Rick Dalton (DiCaprio) and his stunt double Cliff Booth (Pitt) as they meander throughout a couple of days in their lives.
I never thought these words would come out of my mouth, but this Quentin Tarantino film is boring. It's understandable that he wanted to encapsulate the heyday of Hollywood. There are better films that have done it better.
I paused the movie, did things that were more enjoyable than sitting through this. I yawned multiple times watching this. Nothing happens through most of this bloated movie. I didn't care about any of the characters. Why does this story need to be told? Tarantino did revisionist history before with greater success.
There have a been noticeable decline in the quality of his movies as of late. I did not care for The Hateful Eight nor this film. I'm not that excited for supposedly Tarantino's tenth and final film, because I don't care to see it.
Rating: 3/10
