This movie was almost 3h long. And with that it was pretty much 2h30 too long. Even more than Pulp Fiction this is just a random collection of pointless scenes being exploited for Tarantinos fetishes and goal to stuff as much 60ies and 70ies fanboy dreams into his scenes as possible, just for the sake of it. Because people will eat anything out of his hand, even dog food.

There were about three, max. four, good scenes in it. Scenes that you can cut down, put onto YouTube, stripping them from their context and show someone with no clue, and they'll probably enjoy it more than you did cuz they didnt have to sit through 2h30 of boring junk to see it.

DiCaprio nailed his role, he synced very, very well with Brad Pitt.

Margot Robbie was probably the most wasted casting of the century and I take many issues in Tarantinos portrayal of Roman Polanski as a cool, total OK guy.

And I know, people will tell me, "Tarantino writes amazing dialogue, he knows cinema better than anyone else". Blabla. Im sorry. I dont buy it. I can watch gore, sexual innuendos and funny scenes elsewhere, in a more condensed and frankly better fashion.

And yeah, i didnt like Pulp Fiction either, nor Django. But I freaking love Inglorious Bastards and The Hateful Eight, so I don't know. Maybe i like Tarantino in settings that provide no way for him to fulfill his fetishes and daydreams.
