MOVIE REVIEW : Inglorious Basterds


INGLORIOUS BASTERDS

Directed by Quentin Tarantino

Starring Brad Pitt and Christoph Waltz

PLOT

In Nazi-occupied France during World War II, a group of Jewish-American soldiers known as "The Basterds" are chosen specifically to spread fear throughout the Third Reich by scalping and brutally killing Nazis. The Basterds soon cross paths with a French-Jewish teenage girl who runs a movie theater in Paris which is targeted by the soldiers.

REVIEW

+ Brad Pitt knocks it out the park with his performance - just as good as Burn After Reading. +

+ However, Christoph Waltz as the Jew Hunter steals the whole show (he is effectively the main character!) +

+ One of the best looking films of the year. +

+ Soundtrack, though a bit weird at times, is perfectly put together again by Tarantino. +

+ Dialogue heavy - but brilliant dialogue none-the-less.. +

+ Tension is perfectly built is many scenes - just wait till you see the opening 20 minutes. +

+ Very brave, and never shys away from the violence. +

+ Great direction from Tarantino as always, you can still always tell its directing by him! +

- Is absolutely nothing like the trailer makes it out to be. -

- I just wanted more. -

BEST MOMENT

When Brad Pitt and co reveal how well they can all speak Italian. Classic.

MY RATING
++++++++--
