Slow, long, boring. A pointless movie.
We walked out after 1 hour
Violent. Unnecessary
I enjoy QT films however this just dragged on with nothing happening. This movie could have easily been 15 min long and you'd get the same out of the story. It almost felt like the film student project with the objective of needing to include all the kids in the class in a scene. For the first time ever I felt like walking out of a movie theater.Don't worry if you arrive 45 min late because you will not miss a single important aspect of the story. Sometimes people create films because they have nothing better to do with their lives and sadly suckers like me suffer.
It offered an explanation to the horrendous murders...a drugged fatal mistake of going to the wrong house.
Much too long ... with too many pointless scenes... mostly boring, ... the violence is pointlessly extreme-endless violence - . Sloppy directing. I did like seeing all the cameo actors and the children of famous actors ... but Save your money.
Saw this Thursday. Going again Monday. Surprised me in the best way.
Brutal
I love QT films ,but this one seemed to drag on a bit . At first I didn't get the point but after thinking about it ,I realized QT's vision was to portray real historic events , but in a "what if life was like a movie" scenario where the hero always prevails and you always have a happy ending . Thus the title Once Upon A Time , like a fairy tale . Just my opinion .
i give it all the stars however if you are not of that era i can understand the frustration having said that this movie shows us such a great time frame loved it
