TRES, I saw it but only liked the final 20 minutes of it.

I won't spoil it but I was extremely happy about Pitt's character doing what he did do and the way it ended even though it was far from accurate.

And those three actors did a great job making me hate them just as much as I hated Manson when he his crew actually did kill Tate.

I did not know her but I did know some of her close friends and everyone assures me that she was one of the nicest ladies in the Hollywod movie biz exactly as she was portrayed in the movie.

Did you notice that there was an abundance of bare foot scenes?

I personally think that each scene was a bit too long ... thereby making the entire movie too damn long ... and it wasn't till the very end that I really got into it. (From the flat tire scene through the end.)

But I'm glad that the real death scene was not a part of the sctreen-play.

And it was evident to me that the weapon used to kill the nazis would re-appear later in the movie.

I actually walked out of this movie after an hour and a half. The main reason was because the girl I took with me kept complaining how boring it was. She obviously has a short attention span and I don't. I will admit the movie was very slow paced and most of the scenes were really drawn out. But I wanted to stick it out and stay until the end but I couldn't take listening to her complain any longer. So we both left. In hindsight, I should have told her to wait outside in the lobby where they had a full bar. But that would've guaranteed no pussy for that evening.

It was very slow placed...A lot of emphasis on visual authenticity and product placement, which I can appreciate. But an hour and half in...no kills, no blood, no violence---very uncharacteristic of a Tarantino movie. I will watch it again by myself without anyone chirping in my ear next time.

I did not like how they portrayed Bruce Lee in the movie. His personality was nothing like it was depicted and I think it gave his memory a disservice.

also before one sees they need to know the general background

who was Sharon Tate, Roman Polanski, Charles Manson, hippie communes

1960s Hollywood, what is spaghetti western etc

when they had a billboard for the TV show "Combat" that was classic 1960s shit right there! I loved that - it is the little things

My kids also mentioned the lack of violence for a Tarantino film. I doubt it, but maybe it's becoming politically incorrect to promote violence, what with all the mass shootings lately.

He's portraying a fictional character in a fictional world so yes, Bruce Lee met his match in this universe and Cliff Booth gave him a good challenge. I grew up with the myth of Bruce Lee and idolized him at one point like every other red blooded man has, but at this point I thought it was refreshing to see someone take down the myth a little bit.

That Bruce Lee scene is pure bull shit. And Bruce didn't dress like that during his Kato days. He was only around 26 years old and comb his hair parted to the right. And he didn't use that bull shit Kiai until his later movies and certainly not when talking. It was during the Enter the Dragon Days that he wore his hair long and it just hung down and he would wear sunglasses in public.

Love this scene in Return of the Dragon. Bruce never meant it for the American audience. The dubbing was lame and it was kind of corny but Bruce Lee could pull it off. I liked how the girl gave the "oh brother" look and shook her head only to start creaming when Lee started kicking butt.

Hard to believe that a tiny Chinese man could become a legit leading man back in those days. Other than Jackie Chan there hasn't been anyone else.

For the original version, Bruce himself dubbed much of the English dialogue, including the black dude's, "You mean to tell me you don't know what Chinese spare ribs are?"

Here he's dubbing for the Russian:

For whatever reason, I found the movie to be a collection of incoherent dialogue and scenes. The signature Tarantino "jumping from one scene to another that might not necessarily have anything to do with the prior scene" was also very much in full effect. I felt like the movie kept bouncing back and forth without being able to make a clear point. I think the end was typical of Tarantino films in that it created an alternate reality to what truly happened in life.

For what it's worth, I gave it a B-/C+. I've seen way better and think it was a waste of DiCaprio's acting abilities and Pitt's star power.

Excellent music and wardrobe and a good feel for the period with a slant on characters and story and the usual violent ending.

Manson didn't kill her

His disciples did.

I dunno...The same way you "convince" people to vote Democrat?  By lying to them. A lot.

He had armed guards there that would shoot anyone who didn't drink it.  A better question: why didn't the guards shoot him first?

Was he the character who convinced people that they had to die before catching the next scheduled spaceship?

How can that many people all be dumb that much at the same time?

I mean you see it here on this board, but NOT ALL AT ONCE!

No, that was Marshall Applewhite's Heaven's Gate cult.  Jim Jones's People's Temple was a church he founded in Indiana and moved it to the Bay Area in California.  The group then relocated to Guyana in South America where they lived together until Congressman Leo Ryan from California visited because of rumors that the people were being held against their will.  Ryan was shot to death when leaving before he got on his private plane.  Jones then had the whole commune drink cyanide laced grape flavored Flavor Aid.  Those who didn't drink got shot although several escaped into the surrounding forest until help arrived.  Jones shot himself in the head.

I've always wondered if some of those who escaped were actually the guys with the guns who decided to hide after everyone else was dead.

Yes, he is Joe Lewis.

Don't know if Lewis ever said he took down Lee, definitely not in that interview.

I meant, is Brad Pitt supposed to be Lewis?

I haven't seen the movie, just the scene itself on YouTube.

Not so much dumb as brainwashed. Blind faith can be dangerous and destructive and yet most religions demand it.

Cults demand it.  And a cult is nothing more than a "religion" with no political power.

Watched the movie last night. I thought it was pretty good. I won't spoil it so can't go into a lot of detail as to why other than to say I enjoy period films from the 60's/70's that make an attempt to be in that time and this seemed as real as possible. Both main characters were interesting. The movie dragged on at some points spending too much time on the movie filming scenes within the movie. The ending was much better than expected. Would recommend

Personally, I've never been much of a joiner. The only cult I've known is that of bodybuilding.

Good flick but loose with facts so don't take it seriously.

Bruce Lee would have kicked his azz and Charles Manson was really a nice fella.

When I first watched it and the end came, I backed it up three times  to that scene just to watch that most excellent finale!

Tarantino is a fuckwit lib but he knows that crushing scum is what sells.  Even his father was said to be disgusted with his son's attitude toward law enforcement (NOT to be confused with Agnostic007's brand of  law enfarcement).

Time to watch it again!

You really need to let this obsession with me go... I lived Law Enforcement 34 years. From patrolman to Commander. Do you really think anything you have to say about my position on matters involving Law Enforcement matter? Really?

Nothing of worth matters to such as you and your kind.  "Obsession"?  You flatter your ego with that one, ace.  I think you are a farce.  You?  You don't think at all and that evidenced by your politics.  You "feel".  You're another barrel boy here.  Law Enfarcement Officer fits you perfectly and you do not like the way it makes you feel.
