...if all the film would have had the tension and the thrill of the first scene. Sadly Tarantino made it the usual gore fest. The complete first scene is so brilliantly written end executed. Hitchcock could not do it better. But as blood and violence are Tarantinos trademarks he had to follow his path - sadly.
sharelol ya the the scene in the bar wasn't tense at all..... or Shoshana at lunch with the jew hunter.. please stop projecting your lack of film knowledge onto the film them blaming it.
shareI go back and forth sometimes, but I usually settle on this as my favourite Tarantino piece. I think it is a classic.
The movie is broken into "chapters" for a reason, and I think each one builds to its own climax, simultaneously setting up dominoes for the slower burn of the film's climax as a whole. That strange structure appeals to me, but I understand why somebody else (like yourself) wouldn't enjoy it.
I'm not sure why you're complaining about blood and violence in a Tarantino movie, though...
I am not complaining the blood and violence in a Tarantino Movie. I am just complaining that he is commited to do these scenes in movies because otherwise it would not be a Tarantino Movie. I would be happily surprised if he could choose other ways in a movie.
shareInglourious Basterds is Tarantino's weakest film IMHO.
I think the french farm and the bar scenes are the best.
Everything with Shoshanna, Zoller and the movie theater is meh.
As for the bastards, I never liked them. They come off as really disgusting by taking scalps from enlisted German soldiers who are not even nazis. Then at the end they go full retard pretending to be Italians in a very silly and disappointing final act.
Your quite right. It’s almost like two different films.
