Amazingly stupid...easily the most overrated movie of the year

Rating: 1/10 (24 August 2009)

Going into this movie, I expected and hoped for "Tarantino kills Natzis", just like we were promised in the trailer. Unfortunately, that was exactly what we didn't get. This was a ludicrously plotted, overly long movie filled with inane and useless chatter. It was full of 20 minute scenes showing characters eating strudel, 30 minutes drinking milk, and 45 minutes failing to get out a simple message until everyone gets mercifully shot. Some say that builds tension. I say this shows the director doesn't know what the hell he's doing.
In all, I estimate that 90 minutes of the movie was utterly boring dialog, and the other 60 minutes was one of the weakest war movies I've ever seen. **EDIT** I think the most offensively BAD part of this movie was how little the Basterds were in it. They had maybe two scenes of mayhem, then the finale. They could have been dropped completely and the movie would have ended exactly the same.
If you want to see a good war movie, rent anything but this off the top war movies list. This wasn't a war movie, this was awful. It was the first movie where I walked out furious that I sat through it, and I vowed to never see another new Tarantino movie after this EVER. The man is out of cinematic tricks, ideas, and talent. Fool me once with Death Proof, shame on you. Fool me twice with this tripe, shame on me.
Save your money and don't bother to see this trash. It makes GI Joe look GOOD, and GI Joe was a lousy movie. The only reason this got a 1 was because I couldn't vote 0. Utterly terrible.
