It may not be Tarantino's best, but after a day of reflection, I really enjoyed it.

1) The tapestry of sights and sounds do an amazing job of transporting you to 1969. The use of commercial audio is powerful.

2) Pitt and Dicaprio are both insanely good. Even at 55 Brad Pitt is still ripped, even though he is slowly turning into Robert Redford

3) It was un-even pacing at times, even for Tranatino, and they probably could have cut out 10-20 minutes of random Sharon Tate stuff to make it a tighter movie

4) You are making a huge mistake if you go to this movie without knowing the real life background. You really need to understand the basics of how Sharon Tate was murdered by Charles Manson followers at the Polanski house ahead of the movie.

5) The little girl from "American Housewife" is super good

6) While the movie might be behind Tranantino's best, the one scene (and all those who watch know the one scene) maybe the greatest 5-10 minutes of any of his movies

7) Dakota Fanning is super creepy as Squeaky

8) I love that he put Uma Thurman's daughter in, even for such a small part

What did others think?
