Nazis for Dummies

Rating: 1/10 (7 October 2009)

Without question, this movie is the worst movie in the top 100, and how it got there I will never know.
It is long. It has unbearably long sequences of the most awkward dialog you have ever seen. And clearly it's written for the "Low IQ" crowd. It had "Pop up" windows telling dimwits in the audience when a famous nazi would come on-screen. They even had one scene where they couldn't find any other way to show the guys with dynamite strapped to their legs, so they resorted to panning down, and doing a CGI "cutaway" of the pants. It was about as subtle and complex as Peewee's playhouse.
And yes, in classic Tarantino fashion, the Nazis at the end were SIMULTANEOUSLY a) blown up and b) blasted with machine guns and c) burned alive.
All those of you who voted this movie up into the high 8s should be ashamed. Tarantino jumped the shark well before Kill Bill, and this just cements him into the downward spiral he's been in. Hopefully he crashes soon, it's sad to see the creator of masterpieces like Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs making tripe like this.
I'm giving this bomb 2 / 10. The concept of the team of Glorious Basterds was intriguing, and showed promise early on. Too bad we saw so little of them along the way....
