Once Upon A Time In Hollywood received positive reviews when it was released in 2019. The story revolves around actor Rick Dalton (Leonardo DiCaprio) and stuntman Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt) in 1969 Hollywood. It also includes the fictional representation of Sharon Tate, whose fate in real life was tragically different from the film's portrayal.
Although the film was well-received, it faced criticism for its depiction of female characters, especially Tate. Robbie's portrayal of Tate was seen as one-dimensional, with limited screen time. This choice, which was part of Tarantino's artistic vision, may have hindered the film's appeal for some viewers. However, in the movie Barbie, Robbie's character takes on a more prominent role.
Barbie's reviews have been consistently positive, with Robbie's performance receiving special acclaim. The actor brilliantly embodies the iconic Mattel doll, delivering a mix of comedy and heartfelt moments that showcase her versatile acting skills. While Once Upon A Time in Hollywood is widely regarded as one of Tarantino's best films, Barbie relies solely on Robbie's exceptional performance to achieve success.
