I have 3 remarks about this movie:
1. The movie relies on the audience knowing who was Manson and what happened to Sharon Tate. It might be common knowledge in the US but outside of it it's not. Without this knowledge the tension of waiting for a tragedy to happen dissapears.
2. The first 2h is a collage of mood setting / world building sequences that don't push the story forward. For the first 2h I wasn't looking how the story will develop but how it will start. I understand that there might be people who will enjoy this (60s yay. I didn't.
3. When I first watched Pulp Fiction I really was disapointed it ended so fast. With Once Upon. I was glad it was actually over. To put it simply: I wasn't entertained (and the ending did not compensate the wait for it.
I loved it ! The places, the acting, the non story telling and still very catchy! Brad pitt did a perfect acting job in this movie ! The end is well... just watch this masterpiece.
It's a fantastic throwback to the golden age of Hollywood, and 60's filmmaking. They did a PHENOMENAL job setting the atmosphere for 60's movie sets and the lives of a few fictional and non-fictional 60's movie stars, and used some excellent cinematography and story-telling tactics.
So why was I disappointed? I think it's because Tarantino set such a high standard for himself, he's made it nearly impossible to surpass his pre-existing work. So far, nothing's been able to top "Inglourious Basterds" imo. Some films have come quite close, but in his world, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood falls quite a bit short.
It's still an entertaining and worth-while cinematic achievement. No point in beating around the bush for this one; either you're gonna love it, or you're gonna like it.
