Inglourious Basterds (2009)

Tarantino's self described masterpiece.

I find this to be Tarantino's best movie. It doe shave his dialogue as usual but this time it is never annoyingly intrusive like it can be in some of his other movies such as the Madonna speech in reservoir dogs and the pot belly speech in pulp fiction. Here the dialogue and the plot interact well to create a very satisfying picture with many interesting characters and some great scenes. The plot is incredibly interesting and I was fascinated to follow through the whole thing. After a rewatch of it it slows slightly involving a series of three scenes involving the character Shoshanna that slowdown the film slightly but not enough to harm every other scene that all work incredibly well. I did not mind the history rewrite since I know the history it more of made it a interesting twist and it did not telegraph the ending like it could have. Every thing was great the music the acting the look of it all into a great world war 2 picture that used some of the old techniques but never really copied them.
