How are the Bruce Lee/Steve McQueen/Sam Wanamaker lookalikes? I know they use makeup but are they somewhat convincing in look/voice? You mean Damian Lewis?.

Saw it today. It's fantastic! If you're a fan of movies, TV, and music from the 1960's this movie is like a love letter written for you. 10/10

Keane?. Homeland? Billions? Wolf Hall?. Nope. Heard the name but when I hear Damien Lewis I think of Damien Thomas and then Al Lewis.

Literally nothing happened for 90% of the movie. There were some cool scenes, but they ultimately added up to nothing.

Another thing--IMDB lists Martin Kove, Clu Gallagher, and Brenda Vaccaro in the cast--are they? They have no characters listed so I assume its someone BS.

So Brad's character killed his wife accidentally or not but kind of not a big deal, but the controversy ended his acting career?

I don't know what to think. I was completely onboard for most of the movie. Pitt was awesome, but I think it may be Leo's best performance since Gilbert Grape. I also saw it at the Cinedome in Hollywood, which was cool since not only were the featured cars (Leo's caddy, Pitt's Karmann Ghia) sitting outside, but the actual theater is in the movie itself (to which everyone cheered).
But then the third act happened and I couldn't believe what I was watching. I guess it shouldn't be too surprising after Inglorious Basterds, but still. I was waiting for it to all be some hallucination or something like the scenes of fake shows and movies you see Rick Dalton in, but it just kept going.
Maybe I'd like it more on a rewatch knowing what to expect, but it still felt at odds with the tone of the rest of the movie, which *was* QT's most mature and reflective. Then it became a Tom and Jerry cartoon.

I'd say the part where Pitt's dog starts chewing on Tex Watson's nutsack, Sadie Atkins taking a statue to the face, the dog then chewing her, the Italian wife's reactions to everything, Pitt's non-reactions to everything including being stabbed in the leg because he's tripping balls, Pitt bashing Red's head into 40 different orifices, Sadie running out a window and into a pool while firing a gun blindly and screaming like Yosemite Sam, and Leo pulling out a flamethrower on a whim and roasting her. So basically the entire climax.

Interesting that Tarantino put three Paul Revere and the Raiders songs in the soundtrack. The producer (Terry Melcher) and lead singer (Mark Lindsay) once lived in the house that Sharon Tate et al were in when the Manson killers struck. Melcher had listened to some songs Manson wrote but didn't offer him a contract. Terry Melcher was the son of Doris Day.
Maybe all this is in the film. I haven't seen it.
