Photo: 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood'/Sony Pictures Releasing A Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Review Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, compared to some of the other Quentin Tarantino outings, comes off as a slower-paced and more character-driven film. Its narrative is an examination of the highs and lows associated with Hollywood stardom. It shows a contrast of Hollywood socialites living comfortable and seemingly carefree lives, juxtaposed against anxious and fading Hollywood idols, as well as their loyal behind-the-scenes wingmen, on the precipice of potential greatness and financial security. Fans of the more action-driven Quentin Tarantino films, such as Django Unchained and Inglourious Basterds, may find the nearly three-hour-long Once Upon a Time in Hollywood a slower than usual ride. Some scenes are thrown in to simply show off the time and care that went into building sets and transforming Los Angeles back into the 1960s.
