I'll never see this - Anyone else the same?


Brad Pitt, DiCrapio and Tarantino is just too much for me in one film.

Maybe two out of the three in combo I could handle but all three together just seems a step too far.

I've never been able to take DiCarprio and his wee red bawheid seriously. I mean he was eye candy for girls in Titanic (which I never understood given his head) but here we are a few years down the line and he's built up with Pitt here like they're a pair of real acting gods. Do most people really buy that these days? Just seems too weird to me.

And Tarantino, yeah for years I thought his films were cool, real event cinema. But now I guess I'm just too old and cynical for that too. I just can't be buying that either...

Anyone else not completely blowing their wad over this one?

I won't see it because I'm not a fan of graphic violence and stuff like that. I was initially intrigued by the idea since I'm interested in that era of history, but oh well.

I'll never read the OP. Anyone else skip right over it and post in this thread too?

reply

LOL. Most people did just that!

yup. it was pointless to me. I got about 25 minutes in, got the feel and the flow, and knew it would waste my time. never a QT fan, and these types of films are why. could have been fun. instead, he's just jacking himself off again. filmed well, neat color and concept, with pointless cutaways to filler with zero value. done.

Celebrating five years now of never seeing this one 🥳🎉!

Anyone else?

I eventually got round to watching it , I was saving it for a particular type of mood on a rainy weekend with 3 hours to kill .

Cant say it was worth it .
"nothing happens!"

I've watched it and it's mostly forgettable. The scene with Bruce Lee and Brad Pitt with Pitt throwing him into the side of that vehicle and it denting like it did would've never happened in the early 70's when this was portrayed because vehicles back then were fucking solid 100% unlike in 2024. Also, Bruce Lee would've killed Brad Pitt in record time

I'm not going to lie it's 5 years later and I've never seen this movie.

It's simple; revenge porn just ain't my thing

reply

I wouldnt call it revenge porn , like "man on fire" , or other vigilante movies
I cant see where that description fits in , this movie doesent really fit any genre because ... nothing happens!

so , good call not watching it.
