Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a true Tarantino classic. Over the course of more than 2.5 hours (you’d better have some time to kill!), Tarantino tells the intricate story of Rick Dalton and his stunt double Cliff Booth as they navigate life in Los Angeles during the late 60’s. It even includes a whole historical angle, highlighting the stories of Sharon Tate, Roman Polanski, and Charles Manson. Overall, the movie is excellent – Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt (who won an Oscar for the role) form a dynamic duo well worth watching. We would argue that it probably could have been a bit shorter, but in this age of quick-cut action movies, we don’t mind one that takes its time to tell a great story.
