In the early '70s, a precocious 15-year-old is smitten with a woman less young than he by 10 years. Such is the bare opening of Paul Thomas Anderson's B.P.-nominee, LICORICE PIZZA. As usual for him, Anderson's narrative goes everywhere, and always engagingly. (A hefty dollop of post-viewing enjoyment can be found throughout IMDb's lengthy trivia
page for this flick.) Well recommended.

I couldn't finish it. Made it as far as them leaving the house they'd
been "cleaning" and spotting the client, Barbara Streisand's boyfriend
or something, walking back to the house and I realized I had been hating every minute of this thing and decided to bail.

There is nothing "engaging" about this movie. Not the lead actors, or the superficial script, or the music that is mostly good but has nothing to do with what is going on screen. Even the title is stupid and has nothing to do with anything. A total

At Metacritic, LP appears to be far and away last year's critical winner
-- which I'm assuming all four opinions so far expressed here (including mine) were ignorant of. As the only one of those four who quite enjoyed
this flick (though I went in expecting not to), I'm a bit puzzled.

I never use Metacritic (or IMDb). I'm puzzled as to how you enjoyed it. It was almost a spoof of an indie created by someone with ADHD.

Licorice Pizza was a record store chain in Southern California in the 70's.
