"I think this just might be my masterpiece"


Inglorious Basterds by Quentin Tarrantino.

So this is it, his masterpiece, the odd ball who brought us reservoir dogs, pulp fiction and kill bill, his last film a huge flop; Grindhouse: Death Proof. Did he redeem himself? I would say so. If you haven't seen this film, go and see it.

Before I went to see this movie I was under the impression that this would be another typical Tarrantino film. The story as I understood was about the second world war, but with a twist. The Jews get revenge on the Nazi’s.

The film is split into 5 parts:

Chapter One: Once Upon a Time … Nazi Occupied France

Chapter Two: Inglorious Basterds
Chapter Three: German Night in Paris
Chapter Four: Operation Kino
Chapter Five: Revenge of the Giant Face
To sum it up, I don't want to wreck it for you but if you would like the see what would have happened if the Jews got their own back then this is definitely a must see, if not then go because Tarrantino is a legend, or because Eli Roth from hostel is nicknamed "the Bear Jew" or just because the Guardian thinks: "Much of this film seems well below par."

  1. i saw this film the other day, i loved it, thought it was very clever and funny but at times gross ie how the bear jew kills the nazi officer. But my brother hated it, said it was too long pointless and not like his other films, but i agree with you it is a must see film and brad pitt is surprisingly good at being funny.
