Tarantino's revisionist history is gloriously steeped in dark humor, entertaining action sequences, and a macabre and introspective look at an often captured period of history. Never has WWII been done like this. The ensemble cast shines, more so in their joint scenes than individually. Christoph Waltz's breakout role lives up to all the hype, as he fully embodies charm and evil in every lilting line and the explosive and fiery conclusion, though completely off the rails historically, is a delight, both cinematically and as pure entertainment value. |

Taratino's magnum opus (after 'Pulp Fiction', of course)! Christoph Waltz is sumptuous and sadistic as the big bad. |

My Favorite Movie of All Time |
|
This is not the greatest movie ever made, it isn't even Tarantino's greats; but this is my favorite movie of all time. It is the most fun and thrilling movie I have ever seen. Every aspects of this job was perfect and well thought out down to costume design. Pitt was hilarious and brilliant in his role as Lt. Aldo Raine but is heavily overshadowed by one of the best performances I have seen on screen in a long time, given by Christoph Waltz. The sheer brilliance of it all is captivating and exciting. It has a dark comic book goofiness to it, especially with characters Hugo Stiglets and The Bear Jew. The entire theater scene is magnificently done. It was drawn up and executed perfectly.
--Spoiler-- When the massacre began in the theatre with the screaming, the burning, the laughter of L... |

"Inglourious Basterds" by Yojimbo |
|
Quentin Tarantino returns with the story of the Basterds, a group of Jewish soldiers performing guerilla warfare and terror tactics behind enemy lines to strike fear into the hearts of German soldiers during World War II. Inglourious Basterds is a very difficult film to pigeonhole. It's part Jewish revenge fantasy, part gung ho war film, part knowing parody of patriotic flag wavers and 100% Tarantino. His trademark patchwork of styles and references is as evident as ever, but somehow Inglourious Basterds doesn't gel together half as well as his best films. The opening scenes are pure Leone, it turns into The Dirty Dozen, and then zig zags off on tangents all over the place. It's impossible not to enjoy a film with this premise (unless you are a closet Fourth Reicher or member of the BNP) ... |

Inglourious Basterds review |
|
Has one of the best antagonists onscreen. A team called The Basterds hunt down Nazi's who are tasked to eliminate Jews. SD Colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz) is definitely a genius in interrogations. 1st Special Service Force First Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) was able to recruit 8 Jewish American soldiers to be in his team. The script was clever and the cinematography and camera angles were impressive. So many tragic scenes and yet the humor never dwindled. Shades of Reservoir Dogs was present in the bar scene with the “Mexican standoff” which involves Lieutenant Archie Hicox (Michael Fassbender) the Basterds and German film actress and British spy, Bridget von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger). The downfall of Hitler and the German's consist of a movie theater, a couple of Baster... |
