Once upon a time in Hollywood - I get the usual Tarantino slow build up, but felt myself nodding off when as usual all hell broke loose. Ill give it another bash, but it didn’t feel like one of his best efforts.

One of my favourite directors Tarantino but people’s opinions on this one put me off a little, but people said the same with the Hateful Eight but that’s a slow burner and I love it

1917

Visually great 

Plot meh. Bit too Saving Private Ryan esqe

Tough gig to get much depth when there’s only two of them on screen. No chance of any sub plots etc. Almost seemed to be lacking a sense of danger, even at the end.

As you say they did a good job of it visually, especially as they must have spunked a load of the budget on Mark Strong, Benedict Cumberbatch and Colin Firth for a combined total of about 90 seconds.

Kill Bill was peak Tarantino for me.

I think part of his genius is the way he splits opinion. He does seem to mix it up a bit.

He did manage to deliver the note all in tact. Despite floating down a river only shortly before ☺️

True Romance is the one

Anyway I quite liked Once upon a Time

Jules as a fellow Jedi, how are the latest Star Wars?

Our Maude has never seen them so we watched the original three and she loved them and wants to watch the rest, do they get better after the jar jar binks era?

Sadly not for me.

TWA was ok but essentially a rehash

TLJ utter utter wank. Ruined the lot

TROS is an ok standalone but it’s too rushed and was an attempt to patch up TLJ

Rogue One is by far the best of  the recent ones

I’ll give them a swerve then. May the force be with you.
