    It was awful. It had no story-line or plot. Five of us went together and agreed that our time was wasted. I'm hearing the same from other friends who saw it so am not sure why the ratings are so high. The guys were handsome. That's about it.

    Expected so much more based on the hype and reviews online. The positives: great acting by Pitt and Dicaprio, and the music and retro vibe were well done. However, the storyline was a bit all over the place and it was rather long. Sadly, I just can't give it a high rating.

    Fantastic movie. Not a lot of killing but it was really good. Still walked out of it when it was over and very satisfied. I would watch it again but I will wait until it comes out.

    A+ acting & directing, beautifully shot and depicted the era well. Not his best, don’t go into it expecting Tarantino trademarks like excessive violence and overly philosophical dialogues. Most of Quentin’s movies feel like action first and comedy second, this movie is the opposite. Not what I was expecting but overall a good movie.

    This movie had a lot of references to shows that I grew up with in the 60s and depicted actors and actresses that I loved such as Steve McQueen and James Stacey. I thought that Tarantino was respectful and he worked hard to bring realistic sets and scenery to the project. The end of the movie was such a surprise it made me weepy.

    And the attack of triggered SJWs started... Tarantino has never, ever been racist, never treated female characters with disrespect. He just commited the crime of today - he dared to put white guys as leading characters in this movie. The admins should delete troll votes and comments.

    great movie! It might be a bit confusing if you don't know Manson history or knowledge about 60's culture. It didn't feel too long either. Must watch for Tarantino fans.

    I loved this terrific movie. Brilliant in every phase of film making in my humble opinion. The acting was incredible especially DiCaprio and Pitt and there isn't one boring moment in this film unless you are into mindless superhero action. Will see it again and again.

    Wow! Intense! May have seemed too long for some, but the director did a fantastic job of developing all of the interesting characters. The story wrapped up with a bizarre, but endlessly entertaining conclusion. Highly recommend this one.

    I loved how they portrayed the hippies of 1969. Pretty clear message about how not to mess with the wrong people. In true Tarantino fashion, karma is a b!tch.
