Korey and Martin's friendship is the kind of relationship I strive to have.
How the hell do you not enjoy the last ten mins of this movie? I was roaring.
Fuck Yeah!!! That ending was Badass!!!
the last 10 mins was after all of that , i liked the last 10 tho
that ending was classic Tarantino
I loved the climax as well, but I get what they're saying - there wasn't really a proper movie-long build up to it like Django or Basterds. Within the movie itself it just sort of happens. Plus, as much as I love Dicaprio with the flamethrower, thinking about it afterward, it is a bit of a random reaction and a bit out of place for a character whom we saw no violence in towards others before - a knife-wielding chick crashes into his pool, and his instant thought is "Flamethrower!" great scene though.
PaulSF same, my entire theatre cracked up
As soon as Clint slams Bruce Lee on the stunt coordinators car and makes that huge dent. That's when we know that we're in imaginary world.
and that's exactly what it meant to be
coming from the director who killed hitler in a movie theatre? It's Tarantio. based on that name you know what time it is. lol
*Cliff
And don't forget that this was a flashback from his perspective
Definitely the most unflattering portrayal of Bruce Lee I've ever seen. And I'm not talking about the actor. There's not a legitimate martial artist out there that would leave their feet with some flying kick to open a fight unless they want to get slammed like an amateur. And that's how Tarantino portrayed the legend Bruce Lee. And why? For laughs? Hmm... Okay whatever
@@Toukon4ever it worked. it was funny. Bruce lee was a cocky son of a bitch. I wish he were alive to see this and humble down.
I actually enjoyed the movie just because that last act comes out of nowhere and I think it truly is a fairy tale as told by Quentin Tarantino. I gave the movie a full price and I didn't even pay for my ticket yesterday
Better than sex!!!
It makes what really happened to Tate and company all the more sad. That those people were murdered in such a brutal and horrific and violating way is such a sad thing
Man why dont Jackie Brown get the same love his other movies do?
Because its not over the top like the others, so the people who fanboy over him on one level dont appreciate that movie on another level. Or have never heard of it because its underrated :p
Jackie Brown to me is his 3rd best film, first being Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, then Jackie Brown. It is severely underrated, and one of his best. It should get recognized more.
Jackie Brown has one the best soundtrack out of any Tarantino movie
Yeah with Jackie, Q was basically adapting a book to the screen with a bit of his style but for the most part, it was a straightforward heist film with a slight twist. Goddamn I love that movie
jack bone i liked Vol 2 best.
What Manson's lackeys did to Sharon Tate and her friends was over the top. The ending of this movie would've been just what they deserved.
Omg exactly!!!
I loved that ending i was all for it and when leo came with that flame thrower on the pool
Those people killed a pregnant woman they deserve death penalties
Martin, Bruce Lee’s English was actually good, he didn’t have a thick accent plus by that time Bruce had already lived in the United States for 9 years
And English was an official language of Hong Kong back then.
I'm sure you've seen Enter the Dragon... Do you not remember his accent in that movie? It was pretty strong and unique.
Martin is Pitt in this movie, to Korey's DiCaprio
:)
Danielle would've been Margot Robbie
johnnycanuck2 because it’s ‘Us’ but actually good.
Yup 🔥🔥🔥🔥
There was ONE black Playboy bunny as well.
Also a black actor with the eye patch on the set of “Lancer”.
splinter1psi99 many of the police and paramedics were of color
@21st On the other man Mike Moh (an Asian actor) had one of the best scenes in the film as well. So there's no contest in that regard.
@@EzeICE i wouldnt say the best. Id say the most disrespectful to asians and all minorities for that matter. He single handedly slap sticked a legend into a poorly written scene. The entire film would have been better without it.
Double Toasted always bitches about Tarantino in every way as possible.
There's no "N word", but there's not enough black people. Give Tarantino some credit, dude gives you a black hero in Django, a great black bounty hunter in The Hateful Eight, and one of the standout characters in Pulp Fiction is a black character. I love double toasted, but these guys hate Tarantino with an agenda.
I get your interpretation of the ending violence. But personally, I loved it because it gave dignity to Sharon Tate. We are so used to true crime media that glorifies criminals, and they eat it up. But here QT treats them as a joke, which is satisfying
They used Sharon Tate’s actual performance as an homage for a career and life cut short. A simple tip of the hat.
Just wish she had a little more screen time.
Jackie Brown will forever be the only serious and grown-up Tarantino movie.
Reservior Dogs.
fourth1000 as much as I like reservoir dogs, it was a bit too zany when it came to the ear scene. Jackie felt like the most serious and grounded movie so me since he was adapting a property versus making an original ip
this film got close until the end where he lost all of his control and went full on kill bill
@@avgnfandon2 the ear scene wasn't zany at all. in fact, the camera pans away so you don't see it. Reserviors dogs can entirely take place in the real world.
fourth1000 I definitely agree but idk. It just took me out of the movie
they had black people at the Playboy mansion and bunnies
Bill Cosby was there.
I absolutely LOVED the spaghetti western/Eurocrime movie sequence with the dead on film clips and movie poster art. That was just great.
Me too
Most of the scenes with Margot were clearly just to pay respect to Sharon Tate and remind everyone that this was a human being and a great person (and maybe to remind younger people of who she was). It's a nice idea, but these scenes slowed down the story and never really led to anything. You could have cut out that whole bit with her going to the movies, and I think it would have helped the story immensely. Better to leave her appearances at the beginning and end of the movie, unless you're going to feature her in a way that ties into the main (fictional) story better.
I respect your opinion but the story telling in this movie is unconventional to Americans. Americans like movies to go from point a to b in rapid fashion. Where as this movie likes to harness the moment. If you cut out the movie sequence. You probably should just cut out all her scenes. There was a point to the scene it wasn't just there as filler. I went to film school and every scene has a meaning but that is for me to know and you to figure out.
@@thereviewartistrrp5493 “every scene has a meaning” you can say that about any movie. That doesn’t mean the scene does a good job at serving it’s purpose. And that’s where critiques come it. A director can pour their Heart and soul out into every scene in a movie and believe it’s perfect. This doesn’t stop certain scenes from missing their mark on the audience.
@@maskarah8988 I graduated top of my class from film school and I keep an open mind to properly critique a film you must watch it at least 3 times. No critics do that. Some movies require a deeper look to get the full picture. I have 20 years of studying film, a film degree. I have 12 short films to my credit. And I'm a nobody but for you to understand movies better than me. You would have to start studying films now 5 hours a day for the next 20 years. To be a good critic you have to forget everything you know. Your opinion doesn't matter. You have to watch it through the eyes of a child. You do not exist in this world. Your simply observing.
@@thereviewartistrrp5493 damn dude I agree with your first comment but now you just being pretentious
@@XDarkBrotherhoodHD Talking about Quentin tarantino. How could I go too far.
Tarantino's opinion of this review 'well man I reject your hypothesis.'
This looks like Tarantino's Hail Caesar.
That's a good way of looking at it actually.
I think he means Tarantinos filmic equivalent of that film, a breezy lark that can frequently feel throwaway compared to a lot of his filmography, but is nevertheless impeccably shot and acted.
Mo Jamma right over your head dude
What Toby said.
Clooney would have been great as Rick, esp alongside Pitt.
Steve McQueen had hair like that at one point in his career. I thought Lewis looked amazingly like him.
Yeah I agree. I've seen him with that long hair too. It fits the era.
a plot point that went nowhere. kind of a smoke of a movie.
Showing the real Sharon Tate to me was good, paid homage. And the ending was awesome.
Showing the real Tate was good because out of everything in the movie, which is all stylized and highly fictionalized versions of true events, footage of the real Sharon Tate is the only true, genuine moments of film history.
I loved the ending I thought it was a solid payoff for what they were setting up before everything tied in together masterfully in my opinion but I can respect Martin and Korey thoughts as well
graphic death is interesting to some
Tarantino's gone full HAIL CEASAR.
I enjoyed Hail Ceasar.
My favorite films of his are Pulp Fiction (1994) Jackie Brown (1997) and Death Proof (2007)
phantom347 same here but it’s kinda weird that he doesn’t even like death proof
@phantom347
My favorites are: Inglourious Basterds, Kill Bill (still waiting for the whole bloody affair), Death Proof (only at the second half) and strangely Django Unchained (the most awkward movie I've been to for Christmas)
I can only watch the second half of Death Proof. I can't watch the first half. I know it's acting as an homage to those slow burn exploitation movies of the 70's but honestly it was painful. I pretty much start at where Mike leaves the bar kills the first group, then the MacGraws discuss what could happen next and set off with the second group all of whom I thought were better than the first. The one question that still bugs me is what happened to Lee with Jasper?
Maximus Prime that’s because it’s good, but not all that great for me to put in my top films for him. Jackie Brown is my personal favorite
Death Proof is so underrated.
Jackie brown had no story or pay off
Spoiler....
They kinda just skimmed over Cliff killing his wife.
Yeah, that bothered me. They just kinda bring it up a couple times and then just forget it and literally don't do anything with it. It served no purpose. Plus they don't explicitly say or show whether he did it or not. They just leave it ambiguous.
Big facts, but the more I ponder on it, the more I realize Quentin is the type of guy who always has some type of mystery that never gets resolved/left up to the viewer
@@nl3064
I think the purpose that served is to show that this guy is no hero. He might be a badass but he's got real violent tendencies and even if he's charming and likable we shouldn't be surprised by the incredible violence he commits in the final act.
What's interesting in this movie is that nearly everything we learn about these characters somehow pays off in that final act.
I honestly thought the film was gonna end with Rick Dalton and his wife murdered and the blame was gonna go to Pitt since he was high off that acid cigarette, kinda like karma for killing his wife. But that whole plot point went nowhere unfortunately.
So did the movie
The last part was the best part of the movie. You guys are buggin.
BEST Quentin Tarantino impression: 18:30
That last ten mins was actually the icing on the cake. And the quote you brought up about not enjoying the film, I completely agree. You can't enjoy the film if you can't accept the director's perception of their own film. 🤷🏻♂️
"... is followed by a pose" I'm dead
Strongly disagree with your confusion towards Margot Robbie watching unaltered Sharon Tate in The Wrecking Crew. That was pretty obviously a respectful tribute to Tate there.
Yeah, I'm actually surprised that went over their head. The entire movie is what the title suggests: "Once upon a time".... It's a fairy tale, including her survival. As a tribute to Tate, it's fitting that the one piece of authenticity in the movie is actual footage of her acting.
I disagree completely with their review.
With there being no black characters, that might have been a good thing since this is a QT film. That means you don't have to hear the N word in the movie.
@21st we dont count those characters ass-hat 😒
It’s the guys from spill
Lol!
Everything worked but Margot Robbie. Not sure why she was in this
Eye candy
She was misdirection.
@@Luvie1980 Yep.
fab service
Marketing and box office
This movie is like 60% red herrings and it's so frustrating.
It’s more like 60% vignettes that don’t relate much to the main plot. But it’s done so well, interestingly, and different from every other mainstream film that I don’t mind
Saw the movie yesterday and they basically summed up my exact thoughts.
Based on this review I don't think it's a film worth paying to see in a theatre so I'll wait for it on Netflix or iTunes.
I loved this film. Can’t wait to watch it again!
This movie was so chill. I loved it. I saw it on a whim, late, on a Sunday night, in my lightly filled local theater, with nothing to tie me down. I felt Like I was just hanging out in the 60's with two cool bros and a hot blonde. Really felt this movie's energy beginning to end, from the music, to the conversations, through all of Rick Dalton's ups and downs. I truly believe that I saw it the way it was intended to be seen.
Pedro Pascal (in Kingsman) looks like a young Burt Reynolds, lmao
Agreed
You guys are high. That was one of the best endings to any movie I’ve seen in a long time!
Fr
Yeah they are the only ones I’ve seen that hates the ending.
Not A Doctor all time great ending
@@DeceivedHeretic Huh? The ending has been debated since the premiere.
graphic death is interesting to some
I feel like you guys said the same exact thing about the Hateful Eight ending, I am now finally catching on that Tarantino endings are just over the top and bloody for now on
But what do you think about them. Oh, Plenty of movies climax with violence. it's almost standard.
Because of who it's happening to, I am all for that pivot at the end and that entire scene. I enjoyed it immensely because I was nervous with how QT was going to handle the Manson Family and what really happened.
All the negative reviews from formal reviewers reminds me of all the negative reviews the Big Lebowski got years ago. Somehow I think when all of the professional reviewers take a step back and watch the film again with fresh eyes they are going to love it. My like Lebowski.
I honestly thought the ending was a hallucinations of high Brad Pitt in the movie, and he was gonna wake up and they had actually got murdered. Nopeeeeeee that's how it actually ended lol.
Shit, that actually coulda made sense.
Nah that is not how acid works
@@maxwellharris3365 Someone knows.
Johhny VanJohnson I’m really glad you’re not making films because that would have been an absolutely terrible ending
Basically the ending of The Haunting Of Sharon Tate then.
I saw this on a plane. I walked out
"Stay toe--" Well done, whoever edited this!
Love Tarantino, but I prefer watching his movies on BluRay, no rush to see it in theaters.
You gentlemen hit the nail. It’s T love affair with the Hollywood actor of the late 60s and the process of acting, the backdrop just happens to be during the Manson crimes and T opinion about how it could have went different. Like a What if plot.
It's like the This Is What Could Happen in The Bonny Situation in Pulp Fiction, except they don't continue to show us what really did happen.
The guy who plays Charles Manson also appears in the Netflix show Mindhunter. Scary he looks even more like Charlie Manson in that.
You make good arguments about the ending, but I just couldn’t stop myself from loving it tbh
Same here. As much as I can understand ragging on Tarantino for his batshit endings, they're always a delight to watch for me. And considering that the rest of the movie was being relatively tame, this ending was especially delightful.
Going to see this tomorrow. Got my Double Toasted Goodness on deck. Going to sneak in some Jack Daniels too out of respect.
Could you guys plz do a tribute to Rutger Hauer you've gotta have heard of him. He passed away some days ago.
blade runner?
@@johng8671 yes
@@RaikenXion Split Second?
@@Crunch_Buttsteak Hell yes! :)
@@RaikenXion Haha 😎
I had an issue with the Bruce Lee segment as the timeline with his appearance (The Green Hornet ran from 1966-1967 vs. the Manson Family Murders in 1969), and also his physical appearance (hairstyle in this film was post Enter The Dragon vs very short hair during The Green Hornet). Finally, even if you have are willing to believe Bruce Lee as egotistical, he didn't deserve the treatment that was portrayed in this film.
"Them dudes coming back?" LOL!! That was golden from Martin.
He most likely did broke that many bones. I ain't no stuntman and I have broken 9 bones in 7 instances up to my 27 years of life so theres that.
I look at it this way; since it was 1968 Hollyweird, any Black character that appeared in the movie would have had some monologue about "A nigga can't get a break in Hollywood...". I can do without that, thank you.
Pitt and Leo carried the movie and were great..But boy this movie was disappointing
@SuperPunch76 disappointing because women were portrayed in a bad light and people are sensitive
@SuperPunch76 I haven't seen it yet but a lot of my friends saw it today and they're saying its mostly dialog driven until about 45 minutes left in the film. I don't know if you saw another of Tarantinos movies called death proof. But they say it's reminiscent of that. Not really much happens
@@elijaharvinger1178 death proof has crazy death scenes, a lapdance scene, a good ending chase, a cute ending. Is it less eventful than that, then?
@Jemel Moore Hey, since you saw it, is it true that Jack Nicholson has a cameo somewhere in the movie? I read that last week.
@@calisha1889 Not sure I haven't seen it. But death proof also has 35 minutes of dialog then something interesting happens then 45 more minutes of dialog. I didn't think death proof was necessarily bad but it is a slow burn. Really slow burn.And that's how my neighbor describes this movie.
The theater I was in was laughing so fucking loud at the end, it was a little much but the Leo scene with the crazy bitch in the pool got me. I thought it was a solid movie.
I found the whole thing very cathartic....especially the last 15 mins. Getting revenge on those fuckers who did those awful things to Sharon and her friends.
"And dont forget... you're Korey fuckin Coleman" LMAO
3rd act was the best part, these guys are nuts
The reason he was so violent at the end was to give the satisfaction to those who WISH that would’ve happened to those real life horrific bastards that killed Sharon Tate and her innocent friends.. Not sure how anyone missed that. 🤷🏾♂️
When I was watching this film, I kept thinking to myself “there’s a lot of thought here going into something that’s surprisingly thoughtless.” It’s not a bad movie by any means, but as a Tarantino fan I was disappointed to see a film that felt so slow and disjointed with aggressive shout outs to elements and references that fuel Tarantino’s boner. Just an overall meh for me, and that’s a shame because there are great performances and bits in this movie that shine. 👎
This is gonna be one of those movies with a huge following after rewatch because I feel like people were too into the idea that this film was only going to be about the Manson murders but it truly is for the most part a hang out/ slice of Hollywood life movie that doesnt truly have a narrative but still flows through the lives of these people who represent different parts of Hollywood. The performances are amazing and Pitt absolutely steals the show as Cliff. The literal only issue I had with this movie was that the Bruce Lee scene should have been much longer and I know for a fact that huge Lee fans are going to hate that scene because it depicts a fictional stuntman as an equal to arguably the most influential onscreen and real life martial artist and having him thrown into a car is definitely gonna throw people off but nevertheless, this is a work of fiction and an attempt to mock America's view of Asian Americans in film culture. Mike moh killed it though. Also, the ending 10 minutes seem to be everyone's favorite part but even if it didnt happen, the movie would be great.
7 minutes of standing ovation at Cannes... I never trust film festival reactions. I don't dislike the film but I think most would not consider it Tarantino's best.
My audience and I had about 3-4 minute standing ovation and went wild and the ending 10 minutes 👏🤘
@@nickford3328 my audience booed and yelled, one guy took a shit in his shoe and threw it at the screen. sorry for my anecdotal experience.
Tarantino is overrated hack trash, can't wait to hear this one
7 Min standing ovation. I'm sorry that's bullshit, can you imagine how surreal a room of people clapping like automatons for 7 mins would be? Could you clap for 7 mins? Boredom would catch up. The longest standing ovation you're going to get is 1 min tops.
This was the best ending of al time! If you don’t like the ending you really don’t understand what Tarantino was doing. He was romancing a certain era of Hollywood and how the Mason murders stained it! He put a golden era Hollywood ending to what was in real life a real bummer!
Bruce Lee is the #1 reason why I'm interested in seeing this movie.
Glad to hear it did not disappoint.
Onislaughter he gets his ass beat tho 👀
@@lawrencescales9864 the fight ended in a tie. Pitt hit the ground first. So did Bruce after. And all Pitt did was use his weight against him. The fight stopped right when it was bout to get serious.
Bruce Lee being portrayed how he was became the moment in the film were my feelings were hurt. It was a huge struggle getting back into the whole film after that. Left a disgusting taste in my mouth for the disrespect to Lee. Fuck QT real talk
@@gaditetheghost1953 That's exactly why I'm reluctant to see the film. When I saw "Bruce" in the trailer, I just knew they were gonna do him dirty. Disrespectful as hell, and now I'm definitely gonna pass.
@@gaditetheghost1953 Yeah it was a good scene until he was throne into a car. Thats when i knew the movie was really a fairy tale.
Getting that toasty goodness to continue my good day. Thank you
Great great review! Love how you guys dont just bow down to everything QT does and I'm a fan of QT but this movie can be summed up in one word : overindulgence
I was thinking underindulgence.
It was the perfect level of indulgence.
Once Upon A Time In DT MERCH
I haven't seen the movie yet as I live overseas and it has been pushed up till August when it will be released. One trait Tarantino has done with music in the past is really create an atmospheric environment. One great example is Reservoir Dogs and Stuck in the middle with you. The seventies ballad takes a really dark turn with the torture scene happening. If you watch his movies music is used not just as background filler but as part of the scene on screen. I worked in Hollywood as an extra so I know a bit about the behind the scenes Hollywood he's raving about in the movie. But Hollywood is also a lonely place where dreams get shattered and if he captures that then I'll give the movie the praise it deserves. Will wait and see.Right now just trying to stay away from spoliers so I can watch it without it being ruined.
This movie was not as good as I thought it would be at all - the plot drags on endlessly and the Charles Manson stuff doesn’t even happen until the last like 20 mins of the film. Such a letdown
Read the ending for this film via wiki page. I knew off the bat the ending was going to leave a bad taste in once mouth. I don't hate Quentin for going the silly path. However, you're using real people to tell a story. It's not as awful like Bay's Peral Habor, but you'll question Quentin storytelling skills.
@shogun harlem that's a fair point.
While I still really digged this flick and the ending, I agree more focus on Tate & The Manson Family could've helped suit the film more akin to Django or Basterds.
Nope! The point of the movie is to take the focus away from the assholes that murdered Sharon Tate. It gave life and focus to the victims of that band of dickheads and I'm glad they weren't a main part of the movie. I do respect your opinion though just wanted to share mine
What was the plot in this movie?...The ending did not happen in real life but this movie is a tribute to real life Hollywood...that's like making a tribute to New York but showing that 9/11 was prevented
I understand where your coming from but I thought the ending was brilliant, you could tell that scene was coming. I didn’t expect it to be as hilarious and it was the perfect way to end it
This was his "love story" to this time...which is why the ending is the way it is. Because of what happened to Sharon Tate. They say what happened to her killed the love and freedom in the 60s...
They could of enjoyed it more with the right perspective. Way too critical, but it's their right to do so. They just didn't have an emotional connection to Tate's life. They viewed it like it was just some storyline. I personally felt as if Quentin wrote for someone he loved dearly. This felt personal. He hated those hippy fucks for what they did. I felt it. The respect he had for Tate/ the innocence of the era was obvious. The ending becomes twice as powerful knowing this. I loved that he made the Manson crew into a complete joke. A bittersweet fairy tale ending ha..
@@johnt84 I was SO HAPPY how it ended...especially Leo's character walking through the gates to get to Sharon Tate's home. It was like Terantino was saying "Hello" to her in heaven. But you can definitely tell this was his love letter to this time in Hollywood. The look, the music, the style, everything....it was beautiful and so happy. Even the hippie killing was amazingly beautiful! Lol. He got to kill Hitler and these horrible people...it's a shame we didn't get to see Manson die.
@@wickednikki1303 I love that ending too. What you said about Leo walking through the gate is spot on. I had a similar feeling that's what he was going for . I was hoping Manson would get his. Can't have it all ha... it was satisfying either way .
With the whole backstory about Cliff (Brad Pitts character) I thought Quentin was going to do a reverse O.J. Simpson moment that everyone is saying that he killed his wife and the way the flashback looked I had a little doubt about it still but until the confrontation with Manson’s followers at the end quickly changed my mind I thought to myself “oh yeah he 100% killed his wife.”
@Bryan Logan I was thinking, unless they told The Police about the Ranch, isn't Charles Manson and his gang still at large at this point? Could they come for revenge? What about the ranch owner, does Cliff go liberate him? With Bruce Lee's assistance?
Steve McQueen actually had a perm, so..... weird complaint
Last 10 was my favorite part, but I totally get your points about it.
i hated the ending. i thought we were going to see the real life murders but instead we get something goofy
That wouldnt make sense
People would be offended if he just did that
We dont want another "haunting of sharon Tate" do we?
@@mrflipperinvader7922 then maybe they shouldnt watch any movies since they're easily offended. now we're stuck with this mess
@@BriefcaseWanker well the haunting of Sharon Tate sucked for entirely Justified reasons
Just watch Chris stuckmann review
I loved it im glad they didn't do it and it's a fairytale
This is Tarantino's fairytale, *"Once upon a time"*
I think the last scene was great, bc it making fun on the manson family, taking away that power.
Didnt know it was the manson family :o
You can’t ever be a “has been” if ya got some toasty goodness!
Jackie Brown is a mature, warm, funny and a spectacular adaptation of Elmore Leonard's Rum Punch.
Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is a homager/pasticher masturbating for almost 3 hours and it cost $80 million to make?
There's a reason I haven't paid to see anything Quentin Tarantino has "made" in 15 years.
He's a hack.
Sorry to the fanboys.
Tasteless
I completely agree the last 10 minutes ruined the movie for me. It was completely unnecessary and pretentious AF. I don’t mind if Tarantino wants to rewrite a historical event, I loved inglorious bastards. I really wanted to like this movie but it’s really hard to understand why the Manson/Tate storyline even needed to be there. This could have been awesome. There were pieces of a great film in there but the ending was incredibly stupid.
Pretentious? A dog ripping off a dick?
If a person watch this movie didn't know the story of Sharon Tate, they'd probably wonder why the hell she was even a part of this movie.
That is the problem with the film. I loved every minute of it, but clearly Tarantino thought the audience would know about the reality of the Sharaon Tate murders, the Manson family and how Hollywood changed through the 1960's.
I like Robbie as Tate, but if anyone doesn't know who she is, her character is pretty much pointless.
I look at Rick Dalton and Cliff Booth as two sides of the same coin, and the same coin being Quentin Tarantino.
Rick Dalton represents the comedic timing and acting chops of the mind of Quentin Tarantino who brings the best of people.
Brad Pitt represents the mayhem and brutality of the violence Tarantino brings to his characters.
Rick Dalton and Cliff Booth are the best Tarantino duo since Jules and Vincent.

@@GooFucYourselfSir That might be the most unconventional list I've ever seen.
I just saw it. On the way out I asked to guys what they thought. One said they hated it and the other said they loved it. So I get this movie is not for everyone and people will feel very different about it
Dude that plays Charles Manson was brilliant as Dewey Crowe on Justified (also starring Timothy Olyphant and QT alum Walton Goggins.)
Man, me and my friend knew you guys were gonna be divisive with the ending xD I honestly loved it, but that’s because I loved blood and gore, and not to spoil anything for anybody, but the people who received the violence deserved it massively! It was supremely satisfying.
basquat76 I don’t wanna spoil anything for anyone who might not know, but I would’ve very much would’ve love to have seen that too!
@@VEZOK54 I'll delete my comment to not potentionally spoil it for anyone
You're spot on that the movie didn't have much plot. My initial reaction to the movie was that it was boring and subverted history with the alternate ending to what really happened to Sharon Tate. After reflecting upon it and watching the reviews, the movie was more of a homage to the golden age of Hollywood and was a stylistic look back at the history of Los Angeles in 1969. With that understanding of the movie, you'll begin to enjoy what Tarantino did as a film maker.
Agreed
I really loved the movie and now I am reading the novel. Amazing how Tarantino wrote the novel for the people who liked the movie, they complement each other really well.
This movie: Acting, set design etc... brilliant.
Outside that, plot wise and payoff its all kinds of awful. And there's easily about 45mins worth of worthless scenes that have NO meaning to the film and should have been cut out...honestly.
JayMetal 1 I honestly think they cut out Kore than the should've, the film was originally longer.
What scenes were useless?
@@tommycipriani2254 If they'd shortened some scenes, and added deleted material in, it would have been better.
I like the last 10 minutes mainly because that's exactly what those Manson members deserved!
The thing about the perm on the actor portraying Steve McQueen. Back in 1969, McQueen did in fact have a similar perm. If you search his name and that year on Google Images you’ll see pics of him with that perm. Some of those photos also feature him at parties talking to Sharon Tate and Roman Polanski. Funny thing about hair in the film, as much as people are against Bruce Lee’s depiction in the film, his hair isn’t right. When Lee costarred in The Green Hornet his hair was cut much shorter. In this Tarantino flick Mike Mo is wearing Lee’s hair that he had later in the early 70s during filming of something like Enter The Dragon or Game Of Death.
Back to the Playboy Mansion party scene-That couldn’t have even occurred. That too is an anachronism. While A Playboy Mansion did exist in Chicago since the late 50s, at that point in time that Los Angeles house wasn’t yet owned by Hugh Hefner. In 1969 that mansion was a private residence. Hefner purchased it in 1971 then later moved into the place in 1974 until the time of his death.
what Quentin did was make a version of GTA using the setting of 1969 Hollywood.
He created this world he is so in loved in and created characters to inhabit this world and function while there is an underlying story playing out with events that occur. All, Rick & Cliff do can be considered side missions while progressing the story until they reach their climax. Is that very much like how GTA plays out in a way? You can spend most GTA games just exploring the world. Even, Quentin's use of the radio and TV plays out similarly like GTA.
That is the appeal of this film, it is world Quentin has created which draws you, or, which drew me in.
Burt Reynolds was to have played the old ranch owner, and he of course played Avery Carrington in GTA.
Oh man! Glad to agree with you guys on something 100%. Just watched this movie the other day and the whole time i was enjoying it, loving it even, all the way up until that fucking ending. Tarantino just couldn't keep his dick in his pants. Glad he didn't win an oscar for this.
All of Quentin Torillini's movies take place in a universe where people are more inclined to violence. For example in this movie Rick Dalton is in the movie based on the events of Inglorious Basterds.
Yeah, totally disagree with this review. Tarantino's best film.
My favorite Burt Reynolds Hal Needham film was Hooper.
