http://www.rottentomatoes.com/vine/show ... p?t=683873 Apparently, this movie appears to be more star with Pitt than anything and not receiving a very good reception at the Cannes Film Festival.. Tarrantino should've made KILL BILL VOL 3 instead.. |

Bull. I just read a usatoday article that was practically praising the film and quoting a host of critics who seemed to mostly like it but not gush over it. |

I'm actually currently at the Cannes Film Festival - I saw it yesterday and it was a massive disappointment, IMO, and I'm a huge Tarantino-Pitt fan. |

Thompsoncory's review at the bottom of this thread, even brief one says otherwise.. This movie is not going to do well at all |

Not terrible, not great. Rather mixed. I'd expect something like 65% at RT. |

I myself don't think it looks that good. But it should still do well at the Box Office. At least Kill Bill numbers. It's Tarantino and Pitt. |

Yeah reviews are not that great and Im a huge Tarantino fan. I never liked the casting of Pitt in this and from the scenes Ive seen and some of the reviews, I think my instinct was correct. |

I don't care what reviews say, if it's tarintino, I'll be there a day before at midnight. I just haven't seen anything he's done to make me think he'd make a bad movie, so if it actually is, I will be disappointed. |

How did you score that? I interned with a film studio throughout the duration of the festival and had a badge that admitted me to most screenings/red carpet affairs. I'll post my full thoughts on the film soon, I didn't have a chance to when I initially posted that. My feelings haven't changed though and, without some heavy editing on Tarantino's part, this will not succeed stateside. |

Tarantino is really overrated. He has some good films, but he's making more and more bad movies as time goes on. |
