Interesting change of tone yet remains so Tarantino

Rating: 9/10 (14 May 2016)

Couple things up front:

This is not the movie that will make you like Tarantino if you are cold to his style - this is not a movie for the historically accurate aficionados

But it's good. Came in with low expectations: not my favorite cast for a Tarantino joint; the WWII setting is a tricky one; etc. but the Tarantino magic brings it together with his typical strengths: strong scenes & pacings, impeccable use of music and some fascinating characters.
Some of them are a bit on the corny side but the Tarantino humour makes it work.
Recommended.
