    Whew!! Holy boredom, Batman! This was an unenjoyable viewing. This movie just never clicked for me. I had the same experience with “Once Upon A Time In The West”. Each film featured very good actors, but that didn’t help. What’s interesting is both were directed by Sergio Leone. I am surprised because Leone collaborated with Clint Eastwood in a trilogy of westerns culminating in their masterpiece, “The Good, The Bad & The Ugly” and I never get tired of them. I can’t say the same for Mr. Leone’s “Once Upon A Time” duo, they’re both a snore-fest! 🥱💤😴🛌

    Was gonna watch this until I seen there is 25+ add breaks !. I know they gotta make a buck, but that's out and out taking the fucking piss.

    Watched this film in 2 days, and still loved it. Fantastic! The entire film unfolds like an old diary, everything is so visceral and mesmerising that you can't ignore the beauty.

    Like an old fancy wine.. it’s subtle, refined, elegant, but also kinda boring.

    An incredible movie with great characters. The score and how it ties everything together gives you a great film and an immersive experience.

    A masterpiece. Devastating at moments. Begging the lead to do different things but a true grit and grime tale.

    A lot of drama. Not much dialogue so it keeps you guessing every scene.
