Excuse you, I only watch C E R T I F I E D F R E S H movies because of my C E R T I F I E D F R E S H life.
We got like 10 good years left on this dying earth before even the first world can't pretend the misery isn't inescapable. Time is fuckin precious dawg.

Dowd gave it a B+, which is an A+ for any other critic.
Hype intensfies.

I'm sure it's good, but that first review on it being a "love letter to TV and Hollywood" is something I hate and those movies that are just fart sniffing "man we're awesome" shit always review well.
Pitt is one of the best actors going. He's in the tier below the exceptionals of say DDL.
That's amusing cause I like basterds, django and hateful 8 more than his first 3 films.
How would we know what movies we should love and which one we should hate?
Reviews already?
Wow, this is getting some of his best reviews yet. Super excited for this one. This might be his best movie since Pulp Fiction, I hope.

So, there's a piece on Vulture up now that delves into some spoilers as it argues against Taratino's adamant refusal to address the scale of Margot Robbie's role.
Avoid it if you want some spoilers on minor characters, but it doesn't spoil the third act.

So, I saw this thread, thought to myself "Aladdin reviews dropped today, too, and that comes out tomorrow". So I clicked here to find out if this movie is out this weekend, or next. Only to see it's 2+ months away. Grrr.
B+ but he almost only have good things to say
Yeah, i thinking i will like a lot
it sounds like its the closest he's been to that style of movie in a while
shame the tate/manson stuff sounds like it will be as stupid as I feared and indulging in taratino's need for hyper-violence in his movies
He continues to be an ass, but I got a laugh out of the line "I reject your hypothesis" when that reporter asked him about Sharon Tate having little dialogue.
The official, objective, correct ranking:
Inglourious Basterds
Pulp Fiction
Kill Bill 1
Jackie Brown
Kill Bill 2
Reservoir Dogs
Django Unchained
The Hateful Eight
Death Proof
"Movie about movies" puts it in contention for the top but I'm worried it meanders a bit for its length...

I'm surprised by the very high Metacritic and RT scores. The initial buzz from Cannes seemed a bit more mixed.
It's currently (only) the fourth best reviewed film in the Screen Daily's jury grid. Interestingly, the international critics have been a lot less enthusiastic about it than the Americans and the Brits.

I absolutely love Tarantino's work; Pulp Fiction, the Kill Bill's, Inglorious Basterds, Django, Reservoir Dogs all are some of my favorite films ever... his reliance on the utterance of "nigger" in his films is starting to become bothersome for me though.
I can understand using it in a historical context but he seems to be using it for shock value these days. The usage of it in Hateful Eight was just too much and tested my patience.
So... how many times is it used in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood I wonder.

The last 40 minutes or so is probably going to contribute to it. For the flip side, I'm surprised A Hidden Life isn't lower overall.I'm surprised by the very high Metacritic and RT scores. The initial buzz from Cannes seemed a bit more mixed.

Edit: Going back through some lists, I forgot just how badly The Sea of Trees and The Last Face ranked. lol

It's still the fourth highest rated film of the festival despite getting a 0/4. Most critics seem very impressed by the film.I'm surprised by the very high Metacritic and RT scores. The initial buzz from Cannes seemed a bit more mixed.

Quentin Tarantino has written full scripts for the in-universe show 'Bounty Law,' and he would like to do a 5-episode show in black and white with 24-minute episodes like the old Westerns. He thinks it would be great with Leonardo DiCaprio in the role, like he is in the movie, but wouldn't count on it.
