Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood (2019)
Slept for 15 min and Missed Nothing
Big fan of many Tarantino flicks. Pulp Fiction is one of my all time favorites. This? Waste of cash.
No story, no plot, and hardly any dialogue for Sharon Tate. Hated the Bruce Lee scene and felt it was so disrespectful. Manson seen for 30 seconds. All Manson Family scenes total up to about 30-45 minutes and some of it could have been cut. I'm talking to you Bruce Dern scene. While Dern was great that whole thing could have been trimmed down to 5 min easily.
The movie should have been reduced to 90 minutes. Even then it would have sucked because there is no tie in with the characters really. Sure the acting was good, but so what? I'd rather see a story line. And feel free to deliver it out of order Mr. Tarantino.... but I didn't care about any of the characters at all.
The last 15 minutes is the only reason to even watch the flick. And it is amusing and cute, even touching in a way because Sharon lives. But the other two hours and 25 minutes were a complete waste of time, energy, a waste of good acting, and a waste of the paper Tarantino wrote it on.
Beyond the Gates (2016)
Terrible, Awful, Not Fun
Had promise but failed in a way that made me want to crush a baby. I grew up in the 80s, this was a terrible homage to those films. The acting was terrible, the story line was thin, and the dialogue was inane. It's funny that reviews go to one extreme or the other. This is not a love it or hate it movie. It's so bland you will feel like beating your head against a wall.
