    Lol, sorry man, I figured they were trying to setup the background of the movie and all that BS...but it was lazy as hell how they did it. I didn’t need to watch Brad Pitt driving fast for 5 mins or see how Leo and Brad both spent their evenings making Mac and cheese and eating in his pool reciting something. The Damian Lewis part where he decided to tell that girl about the dynamics about Polanski and Tate did it for me...it was boring...period. At least for me. I got better things to do than go to a movie and it spend almost an hour before it starts to be interesting.

    Are you going to be okay? Maybe you should seek counseling if someone doesn’t like a film you do and it upsets you this much. Maybe you and Your butt buddy @Hardy Toll Road just have **** taste in films ? Lol

    Aw man, yeah I’m not big into “deep drama, slow moving films” , I just like to be entertained ...you might like it man, give it a shot. Lots of other folks like it...you may too.

    Sounds like a few of you need to start a "Hobbs & Shaw" thread for some deep discussion of real cinema vérité.

    Is this movie good? It's almost 3 hours long? If I'm going to watch it, it better be really good.

    I’m just here to say I don’t know. I’m not sure what constitutes good for you. And I am not willing to go out on a limb to say it is for fear of consequences if I was wrong. I hope you find the answer(s) you are looking for.

    I really enjoyed it. I’m a massive Bruce Lee fan and that scene cracked me up. It’s a fiction, let’s all lighten up.

    Best scene in the movie. Unless I'm forgetting a better one.

    I’ll put it this way. I didn’t see it in the theater because my wife was not a fan of the over-the-top violence in The Hateful Eight.

    I rented it on UVerse while she was overseas at Christmas visiting her family. I laughed my ass off. I seldom laugh so much at a movie; few of them are worth a s**t anymore.

    DiCaprio’s performance would win an Academy Aware if it weren’t for Joaquin Phoenix. Brad Pitt will likely win for Supporting.

    I think the less-than-30-years-old crowd (at least earlier in this thread, when the movie was in theaters) found it slow until the ending. I was never bored: writing, acting, humor.
