Quentin Tarantino's severely under-educated USA redneck teenager dream of what WW2 was like. Hitler the Clown. Rock music in WW2 (wtf?). Jews kicking the Nazi's backsides (Dude, that's not what happened irl...). Brad Pitt's bad southern accent. The finale set in a cinema and the obsession with movies and films rather than the actual subject matter of WWII!. "Classic scene" of woman in red dress in the mirror, that has nothing to do with anything except director homage/overintellectualisating. Ennio Morricone aesthetic mismatch soundtrack (great music that doesn't fit the film). Yuck! I'm really surprised at all the 10/10 reviews out there. I bet that future generations will ignore this film, 'cos it steals the ideas of the classics but it's not a classic itself. There are good points to the film, like sexy women and nice sets and acting and stuff, but it would be much better if Tarantino didn't make it. The reality of World War 2 is far more beautiful, creepy, sickening, chilling, and weird than the shit flowing out of Tarantino's ears. See Hitler playing with a dog and chatting to a girl in a friendly way, just like your grandfather might have done. See nasty fucker soldiers enjoying grapes in the countryside. See the North Korean-like cult-of-worship adulation of mass murderer Stalin. English women and young children trying on gas masks. Etc etc. Loads more things in this video, which at 9 minutes long, blows away any of this stupid stupid aintitcoolnewsgeeksatisfying Tarantino shite. |

What 10/10 reviews? It had mixed reviews at best and I have no intention of seeing it. |

I take 10/10 reviews with a grain of salt in general, but for this movie I'm inclined to think anyone who says 10/10 is an utter moron. |

i think that the intellectualizing like tarantino does does not make art per se. also it's maddening this particular guy is the most poplular film author or whatever you want to call it, independent film maker, whatever. especially because it's because people think he's hip the movie is flawed in several aspects. too many characteres for instance. kind of sloppily written or edited. however. i did get to see an original film. i hadn't seen anything like it yet. i did think it was funny and cool (though i can hardly stand the violence). it's good tarantino took on ww2 because the movies on them seem to be made with a rigged mold the point is the last paragraph of this review is maddening. it's a movie and fiction: people didn't go to the theatres to see a documentary on how crazy ww2 was |

Dont get me wrong,I adore Tarantino films,but the subject of world war two is one thats very close to my heart,and it makes me sick that some fat fucking 'movie mogul' probably watched the opening scenes of Saving Private Ryan and said...'Bah,I wish that whole ww2 thing was a little more hip you know?'(pause)'Wait just a goddamn minute...whats Quentin doing?Get that motherfucker on the phone...'etc etc. I looked forward to this film,watched it all,cringed through most of it,and will not watch it again. I apologise for the swearing in this post but it really was a bloody awful film. |

the movie theatre part was just so awesome. with the nazis enjoying a ultra violence movie. that too is very unrealistic because the nazis were actually for family values, a herrenvolk |
||||||||
|
|

|

the film is a collection of good ideas arranged in bad way, it's a movie in which I sense he struggle to be cool. If you pick characters per se they have great potential, you see a character introduced with his name on the screen as he is going to be badass and then you realize he is not that important in the storyline, the blackspoitation reference has no purpose at all and Landa is a dumbass with a big pipe or a evil character? Still it's a nice film, it could be great though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but he'd been playing with the idea for 10 years. also i'd still like to see him as independent, despite the financiers know investing in tarantino will always pay, if it's funny and violent enough. after 60 years, and many respectful movies, it should be ok to make light of it once? make light of the movies and myths mostly, because imo it doesn't really make light of ww2 anyway, because it's so unrealistic |
||||||||
|

|
|
yes what's the blacksploitation aspect? are the jews the black here? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I didnt say he shouldnt make light of the subject,I just found the whole idea of trying to 'hipsterize' that event to be painfully obvious and awkwardly trite. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's an interracial relationship between the fugitive girl and the macho black guy |
||||||||
|
|

|

i don't think many people now think ww2 was cool. and if they do they're just dumb |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, that's not blaxploitation imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
imo, this was one of tarantino's worst movies. with or without landa. ...without would be worse obviously |

I didn't particularly like it. Can't seem to figure out what the accolade was all about. |

I'm curious. Gonna watch this in the next view days. It seems like one of those not meant to be taken too seriously. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

this is a weird film, as it isn't historically correct, or wants to be. it's a strange tale in a rich, detailed, b movie manner, that concentrates more on a couple of characters. these characters make the movie bizarrely enjoyable. like it or not it is a very original piece, despite its inspiration. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
except it's not funny? Brad Pitt? oh lol? Landa smokes a big pipe? fantastic? Daniel Brühl? Fuck off? David Bowie? ffffffffuu...? and that baseball bat guy? FAIL? i'm sure there are more questionmarks to be found but i'm tired. |

I never had a very good feeling about this film, but now I know not to waste my time watching it. I might watch the 9 min docu that cwnt posted tmorra, though. Thanks for thinking for me, guys! :) |

you're missing out on two or three good dialogues though. the king kong vs african american slavery dialogue, the jews vs rats dialogue and there's probably another one i'm missing here. the amount is sub-par for a tarentino movie, but individually they're enjoyable for what they are. |

As I said in the original Inglorious Basterds thread, this film thinks it's far cleverer than it actually is. While it's shot beautifully and is full of little curios and touches that interest and entertain it is completely ruined by Tarantino's 'I'm a scholar of fucking genre film, watch as I reference stuff and lecture you at every available opportunity' attitude. This makes massive stretches of the film dull and his desire to insert every fucking brain fart he has gives the movie serious pacing problems in the last half. Also who in there right minds thinks casting fucking Eli Roth in any acting role is a good idea, let alone one pivotal to the story. Tarantino's films are increasingly becoming condescending to the viewer, he needs less yes men agreeing with his self obsessed preachy 'this is what's awesome, I'm a fucking barometer of cool' crap and more people who just want to make a decent movie. |

so yeah i've watched Lars von Trier's Europa last night and i gotta say Tarantino is a sack of shit. Europa had everything Basterds didn't have, which was a lot: humour, characters, decent acting, excellent camera and editing, soundtrack, an intriguing plot, VERBOTEN NEIN VORSCHRIFT, and a fucking train. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Europa is brilliant. Gotta love Udo Kier. |

The opening scene is great. I'm probably a philistine but I think the Western soundtrack in the beginning was hilarious. Less good, but amusing was the Michael Meyers en Churchill scene. Less good, but still pretty intense is the bar scene. Did they play '20 questions' back then already btw? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I liked it a lot, I thought Brad Pitt was really holding it together for me but it seems like a lot of people thought he was shit. Landa was amazing, I loved the whole first scene and pretty much all of Landa's scenes. Some of the quirky Tarantino shit was a bit silly like flashing names up on the screen, Bowie etc. I don't understand why people can complain about it not being historically accurate, who gives a fuck. |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|

It's not meant to be historically accurate. If you think it is, you're missing the point completely. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Anyone hoping to garner historical accuracy from a Tarantino movie should have known better. The real problem lies in Tarantino's scripts, which are bloody awful and get worse with every movie. Each scene is overly long, and most of the dialogue nothing but a big bag of shite that does nothing to enhance the story. There doesn't seem to be any room for improv, or that moment of genius that might come from an actor being allowed to exhibit their personality or lose themselves in the role. They just stick to the script like glue, which is bad filmmaking in my opinion. |

hitler wasn't killed in a movie theatre in paris? |

HITLER WASN'T KILLED AT ALL!!!!!! |

maybe Tarantino is making a statement about all the new remakes that are being made and are damaging the integrity of their originals. Tarantino similarly insults the integrity of WWII history??? |

are you guys joking? |
