As with Hitchcock in the 1970s, Tarantino now has reached a point in his career where he can put out anything and it will get critical praise. As a newly published author myselfd who had to deal with hundreds of rejections beforehand, I see this as a disgrace to writing--no even remote hint of a plot structure or any kind of story development is present. It just sputters from one scene to the next. DiCaprio is the only one who gives any kind of performance in the long drawn-out affair, and only about the last ten minutes are somewhat entertaining.

By the way, I like Kurt Russell, but he has NO BUSINESS narrating anything with his vocal delivery.
