I'm not sure why this movie got so much praise during awards season. It's a pretty mediocre movie. The acting from Pitt and DiCaprio is good but the story is weak and pretty boring. Margot Robbie is pretty forgettable as Sharon Tate, basically all she does is smile & dance in basically all of her scenes. DiCaprio plays the part of an actor realizing he's on the downside of his career well. Brad Pitt plays the calm & cool stunt double well. Not sure though how this was the role that got him an award compared to some of the other better movies he's been in.

Basically this movie feels like it got such a positive reception because it's Hollywood stroking Hollywood. It's not a terrible movie, DiCaprio & Pitt have good chemistry together. But the story is pretty weak and the movie kind of drags on.
