A good 40 minutes or so needs to be cut from the beginning half, especially the "acting" scenes (Seriously? You are doing the whole scene??). The end part, from '6 months later' onwards, is otherwise fine Tarantino as is.
One thumbs up - very far from his best or even his usual good baseline. I have just realised in this second viewing that this one doesn't have chapters like the others (which I enjoy), and the music/score is weaker and not a major player like the others. But mostly I have figured that the majority of Leo's scenes just keep dragging on and are overall superfluous. Brad Pitt > Leo.
