The dragging critique is probably spot on. It’s like he is too much in love with his characters and dialogue to not indulge here and there, which can work in its own way, I’m certainly not averse to king patient films. But pulp fiction has a vitality in its pacing. And when a film has that without rushing things and staying coherent it’s magical.
I was going to say something about him being too self indulgent in all his later movies. That’s exactly what it is. Too in love with his own style. It should work but it comes off a bit…cartoonish.
