After a very long set up, things pick up late and end a bit awkwardly, creating an unfulfilling experience. This film really takes its time to get to the point. It’s quite a ways in before the plot is revealed, and once it does, it moves a bit too fast to savor it. What normally makes Tarantino film’s standout is his dialogue, particularly his humor. There’s a lack of that here, and it causes the movie to drag in a few scenes. These films also allow actors to take their unique characters and have fun with some scene chewing. While Samuel L. Jackson did get one such moment, there was some flat performances that sucked the life from the movie. Some over-the-top violence and a late plot twist looks to make it all worth the wait, but a subpar final act derails what they spent so long setting up.
