COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Disappointing! submitted by Quoniam on December 27, 2009, 5:35pm If you're a big fan of Tarantino's work, do not see this movie. It lacks the energy, humor, and earthy philosophical discussions that really make his movies work. It was boring, and Robert DeNiro was cast in a role that was clearly not meant for him.

The acting was good, though, and as always with Tarantino's films, the music was absolutely perfect.

bad submitted by codyson159 on July 30, 2011, 11:14pm i hated this movie

One of our favorites submitted by Ilyjtwya on June 20, 2012, 3:10am This movie was one of my husbands favorites, and I love it as well. I actually didn't realize it was a Tanrantino film, so I had no expectations to see his style. I found the characters enjoyable and the ends tied up in a satisfying way. I loved the surprises and even rather enjoyed the soundtrack. Great movie! (not for kids)

Music good submitted by purchasingqueen on July 9, 2017, 9:22am The rest of the movie is so-so.
