Tarantino'S MASTERPIECE !

Rating: 10/10 (25 August 2009)

Tarantino's script and directing is superb and very clever! The Actors (Starring, Co-Starring, Special Appearances) too. Thanks for the intelligent casting of German and french speaking actors for the part of the Nazi's respectively Jewish & french characters. That makes them of course more believable. Because it would make no sense if an American/British actor portrays a German/Austrian soldier; etc. Especially the Austrian Christoph Waltz is tremendously groundbreaking charming, intelligent, evil, sarcastic, cynical... in it's own way. Hopefully he will get a choice to be the next big James Bond villain!!??
By the way this is also a Tarantino Trademark - to cast an actor that is relatively unknown or respectively a sinking star for most of the audience either in the U.S.A. or in Europe.
a few Examples: John Travolta in "Pulp Fiction"
David Carradine in "Kill Bill Vol.1 & Vol.2"
Kurt Russell in "Death Proof"
Tarantino knows their qualities they've achieved in the past and afford them a more or less new kick in their career.
Back to the movie review:
If you blind out all the brutal war crime respectively gore scenes (Tarantino TRADEMARK)(which are by the way also very good) you will find out that after all "INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS" is the new "GREAT DICTATOR" of the 21st century, because of it's antiwar Jewish "revenge" message!
For all Anti-Tarantino's: A Tarantino directed movie is sometimes like a KUBRICK movie - maybe the first time of watching it can disappoint you in a way, or it will bore you to death - YOU HAVE TO WATCH THEM A SECOND OR A THIRD TIME TO ENJOY THE GLORY OF CLEVER Film-making - trust me!
And don't forget a Tarantino flick has it own fans, but this one hopefully will get a lot of new ones, because it's a definite MASTERPIECE (Lt. Aldo Raine closing words ;-) ) of excellent work in each level of production!
P.S. I guess that SERGIO LEONE would kiss QUENTIN'S forehead for go down in movie history!
