as funny as the movie was I was kinda depressed by the end of it. idk if it was the intent but it really showed how if you dehumanize people enough nobody cares what you do to them. Sitting in a theater listening to hundreds of people laugh as a guy gets his face smashed in with a baseball bat or as you brutally show someone's face get shot up by machine guns showed to me that we really aren't much better than the nazis. sure we just make movies about horrible stuff, but we love them for it.
Inglourious Basterds is my second favorite Tarantino film the best movie he has done was Pulp Fiction and the fact that Pulp Fiction was one of the reasons i will become a Filmmaker. And i have to say i really loved your review it wasn't like any other review of Inglourious Basterds Ive seen FIVE STARS *****
Tarantino is known for his brilliant corky dialog and this movie didn't have it.I'd also go so far as to say Death proof had better dialog.I love Tarantino, but this movie is a chore to watch..
So after seeing this movie twice on DVD (and looking forward to seeing it again), I'm absolutely convinced it's fantastic. In every way. I love the dialogue. All the dialogue was full of life and the action was placed where it was needed -- not for the sake of having action -- and the movie benefited from that. And Waltz's performance! He created a character I'd remember for years to come. Loved every bit of this movie (and I disagree with everything the person below me says, lol).
Not Tarantino's best. Usually, Tarantino's ratio of Interesting Dialogue to All Dialogue is about 90%. In this movie it's about 40%. The music is just unused (and some used) Kill Bill music. Pitt is hard to understand. Inconsistent how they only sometimes translated Merci. I did not empathize with any character and Pitt's character was boring. The characters mumbled a lot. I actually believed Landa's nickname was "Junda" until he himself pronounced it with enunciation towards the end.
I'm definitely renting this. Kill Bill 1 & 2 are my two personal favorite movies of all time. And Pulp Fiction is right up there. Quentin is a brilliant director.
And I'm glad you're talking about the horrible mindless movies. Transformers 2 was beyond terrible. The only Michael Bay movies I liked were Transformers (the first) and The Rock. And to think I contributed to Transformers 2's Box Office. YUCK.
I end up loving portions of Tarantino's films, but rarely the whole thing. I didn't like Kill Bill Vol. 1 and the second half of Death Proof was just B.A.D., while the first half was excellent. This was also true with Inglourious Basterds. The 1st chapter was a masterpiece, the bar scene was good and Christoph Waltz was AMAZING but little else interested me in the movie. And Brad Pitt's performance didn't work for me, even though I wanted it to.
Im with you maggie screw transformers im sick of it
