As a die-hard Tarantino fan I felt a tad let-down by this, his latest effort (and last if we are to believe what he's been saying) It's just too self-referential, which makes it difficult to fully get into the characters and the plot....wait....was there a plot? There seemed to be a thin veneer of a plot, which is not un-Tarantino like; but it seemed to wander aimlessly at times. While it has it's moments (mostly of the surreal variety), I feel like this was a movie made for Hollywood. Almost an inside joke for Hollywood insiders....and a movie that only Hollywood could love.
