You must like Tarantino in order to enjoy these basterds.

Rating: 10/10 (23 April 2010)

I'm a fan of Tarantino but to be honest, I didn't enjoy his vision towards WWII that much. The reason? Well, the Nazi occupation in France seems too comic book oriented. There is plenty of action, kick ass dialogs, conspiracies that lead to disaster, gore, violence, and character development. Sure, the production values are solid but I expected more from the ending.
But I COMPLETELY understand it's Tarantino's style and he won't change it. I get his artistic point of view and I enjoy his script but I wasn't convinced in terms of reality. Still, "Inglorious Basterds" is a movie you have to see to understand how a quality action oriented movie has to be. The Direction is superb and I always like Tarantino's narrative. Always gives plenty of chances for the characters to expand their points of view and learn more about their back story.
I mean, the Nazi surrender was way too easy. I expected a more intelligent move from Landa.
Hans Landa is by far the most interesting character. I enjoyed every single moment he was on-screen. Aldo Raine added the "cool" and suave hero that knows perfectly how to battle the Nazis. While Stiglitz was my favorite! I wanted to see more from him. Sossana and Bridget were too hot for the screen and their characters were relevant for the revenge.
The scenes I will always remember: Landa's introduction, Sossana's revenge speech, the shooting in the German bar, Jew Bear beating the crap out of a Nazi soldier, the Swastika "tattoo", the theater massacre, etc.
