"Any good? Normally do like his movies "
I went to see it last week. It's absolutely bonkers - the plot is all over the place, and the gratuitous violence is reserved for the final part of the film; but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute (yes all 160 of them) - and Brad Pitt is sensational in it.
A solid 8/10 from me. |

Make sure you have an awareness of the Manson family and the Sharon Tate murders before you go and see it . You will get much more out of it you do . Is it a good film? Gosh that’s a hard question . I came out the cinema feeling slightly disappointed , but then I spent the next 3 days thinking about the film and it got better and better .

It's good but it's not his best. It's very much a film for fans of film-making/the actors life.
Tons of references that you have to be of a certain age to really get. The humour is great. The violence is his usual but less of it. There's a brilliant scene with a female child actor.
As has been said, the plot really is all over the place - but it doesn't matter.
I enjoyed it. Made me feel good. |
