I saw many bad reviews for a film rated so highly

Rating: 7/10 (3 August 2018)

*** SPOILERS in places.
I have my own scoring 'tool' with 12 categories and here's how I arrived at the above score of 7. Quality of script: 8; Quality of cast: 8; Appeal of characters: 8; appeal of storyline: 8; Quality of photography, images, etc.: 6; How quickly it engaged and held my interest: 8; Plausibility: 2; Music: 7; Overall entertainment value: 8; Inspiring: 3; Overall *style*: 9; Ending: 7.
Things I didn't like: some of the casting, like Hitler for example. I actually can't think of much as I write this.
Things I liked: I thought Pitt was very funny and I liked most of the actors very much. This was my first time for C. Waltz and M. Laurent . . . VERY enjoyable performances. This is a comic book type film and pretty much sticks with QT's known style, etc. He comes up with ideas I find original and interesting, though in places he can be borderline too chatty. Sometimes he rides the line. I turn away when T's films get too violent -- not my thing -- and this film had some of those. I'm anti glorifying violence, but for some reason T seems to get away with it, for me . . . perhaps b/c of the comic book quality of his films.
The whole idea of wiping out the German high command, including Hitler, was inventive. I'd not seen anyone else do that.
I may come back and add to this or tweak it.
