The beginning of the end

Rating: 1/10 (29 November 2017)

I'm sure if I'd never seen any other movie by Tarantino, I wouldn't be so harsh. But as it stands, This film signals the end of a truly magnificent filmmaker. By far, Tarantino's most cpensive film (more than double kill bill and about 9 times more expensive than Pukp Fiction) and staring box office darling Brad Pitt as a Jewish American warrior, to me, this film represents the end of Tarantino as an independent filmmaker. Also, taking Tarantino'sfamously witty dialogue and setting it at other times in history simply doesn't work! And it especially doesn't work during World War II Nazi Europe. And these characters simply fail and are forgettable. Most of them are uncharacteristically charmless And there is something disgusting about making the most charming character a murdering Nazi. At the end of the day, the worst thing about this movie is that it's simply not good. It makes a lot of promises it doesn't keep. It doesn't really go anywhere or at least no where good or believable. The IMDb rating and all the praise it received is classic "emperor's new clothes". Tarantino is over and this is the turning point.
