If it were not for the specific actors, this would be one of the worst 3 shows we have ever seen. Too bad the 2 male leads agreed to do this one.
The plot, language, graphic and lewd scenes were horrible. What a waste of Brad Pitt's abilities. Even one star is too high but because Brad did the best he could do with an awful script, I'll rate it 1 star.
Loved the 60's vibe and attention to detail but the movie was way too long and very slow paced.
Awesome movie
I loved the character development, and how the story unfolded.
A great movie. Only prudes and dirty idiot hippies will hate it.
The first two thirds or so of the movie was great. I loved the camera angles and the shots of downtown LA with all the old cars dating from 1968 and earlier; the costumes that mimicked late 'sixties fashion were right on. Tension slowly builds as we are introduced to the Manson Family. However, once the killing begins the film drops from a four or five star rating to a one star rating (if that). The violence was over the top, even for Tarentino. The apparent attempt at blood drenched humour was sickening and the constant disparaging of long haired poor people as 'dirty hippies' was tiresome.
An homage to Hollywood in the late 1960s. Try to keep up with all of the movie genres Tarantino weaves through this story. Great acting, neat insights into movie-making, and great music. The Sharon Tate murders is tossed out there in the trailers, but Tarantino has more up his creative sleeve. Some people seem confused by that. They should look at that movie poster a little closer. The story gets a bit too loose for me in the middle, but my thrill never wavered in this ride.
Immensely entertaining! Loved the attention to the details from the 1960s. This was classic Tarantino—unpredictable, funny and also violent. If you’re expecting ‘The Sound of Music’ or a Doris Day movie...this ain’t the movie for you. I’d definitely see it again!
Brilliant! Kept me interested for the entire movie.
