    I loved this movie. Terrific in every aspect of movie making. Great performances by entire cast especially DiCaprio and Pitt. Will see it again soon. As with all Tarantino movies they are about style and dialogue and if your looking for mindless actions with no story line then you won't find it here. This film is beautifully plotted and delivered. I also understand the ending was changed so as to respect the death of the people involved in the Tate Murders and what he did with the ending was awesome. I can't say enough good things about this film.

    Poor plot, in almost 3 hours it never got off the ground. Don't waist your time or your money.

    Don't expect a great, well developped plot. There is NO plot. Don't expect anything cerebral that will challenge you in understanding what's going on. Very little happens. Don't expect a typical, excellent Tarantino movie. He took a break. But you will find a lot of comical moments and super acting from Brad and Leonardo, as would be expected. There's a lot of very graphic violence, and a copious amount of foul language. Contrary to some other reviewer's comment, Sharon Tate does play a pertinent role in this 'story'. I won't spoil it by saying more; you will notice when you see the movie, close to the end. And stay for the credits; it's worth it for a bonus short. Overall a funny and entertaining movie.

    If he wasn't already this one puts the director right up there with the greats, Hitchcock, Scott, Spielberg, Kubrick. Sometimes it takes more than money. If its good it should be long.

    Leonardo De Caprio and Brad Pitt saved this movie. If anyone else played their parts it would have been a dud. That being said a good 45 minutes should have been shaved off this movie and it would have been a winner.

    Typical Hollywood: take an interesting Story and completely destroy it. Tarantino is not right in the head... the Bruce Lee scene alone has earned Mr. Tareantino a kick in the sack.

    A unique movie. Not sure what to make of it. I enjoyed watching Brad and Leonardo do their thing. Unless you are over 50, you likely will not get most of the cultural references from the late 1960s.
