    This movie is seen as a classic and maybe a culture changing movie to depict more realistic/accurate representations of the once glamorous and dramatised crime movies.

    However, for me it just doesn't do a whole lot unfortunately. Maybe it's the movie syndrome of everyone telling you how amazing something is it struggles to reach that high. Perhaps I am not a big Tarantino fan but overall tye movie was just good. No more no less

    This is a movie I love. Short and direct with minimal extra fluff. The dialogue is precision which is fitting in a movie of espionage and traitors.

    Really loved it, and only fault is sometimes the amount of information we are expected to absorb in a scene isn't given enough time to settle.

    This movie I feel tried to sample a bit of everything and did them all well, they did not excel in these aspects which is unfortunate as there was a lot of interesting concepts (including rather odd ones).

    The acting across the board was super and thoroughly thought every cast member did a stellar job.

    I would definitely recommend to watch the film and make up your own idea behind it.

    ★★★½

    This movie is enjoyable for the previous movies successes. You long to see more of middle earth and learn more lore and stories. The film succeeds in this with giving some enjoyable little lines relating back to source material and some nicely timed humour moments.
    The negatives arrive with the lack of empathy I feel towards majority of the characters. I never felt attached. Furthermore, the long runtime does feel a little dragged out in sequences and a 90 minute runtime would seem more appropriate.
    Overall enjoyed the film and story told however have some negative criticism.
