I was very much looking forward to this movie. That may, in fact, have contributed to why I didn’t like this movie. 

Film student perspective:
Wow, this was long. Holy shit. It was long. 

There were about five solid minutes of driving throughout the movie and I get it. Trust me, I do. I understand this was Tarantino’s love letter to Hollywood. So I understand why there would be so much driving. But god damn, there was so much fucking driving. 

Cut that shit out. 

In fact, cut a lot of that shit out. So many scenes contributed nothing to the overall story. There was barely any payoff and I left dissatisfied. 

Normal pedestrian perspective:
It was aight.
