Review of Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood (2019) by Andycted — 25 Mar 2021
Bland and uneventful, sometimes even dragged or built up to nothing, this seems a very nice exercise in style, or a testimony of the director love for the theme, or rather a sandbox for him to play at will.
The screenplay left me baffled, and while it shines often for the way it is directed, the story itself has only a few highs and for the rest falls very flat to my eyes. Not my cup of tea, maybe somebody will love it, but the way it is directed, combined with its uneventfulness and uneven theme, bogged the viewing a lot.
Acting is mostly spot on, but quirky at times, and not in a way that adds something.
