Not quite great, but very good.

Rating: 8/10 (12 January 2020)

Inglourious Basterds is a very good film with a great cast, it just doesn't resonate that well.
Christoph Waltz and Melanie Laurent the standouts and the most memorable segment is the bar rendezvous, which involves neither. Tarantino's chapter style with lots of characters sort of has to have consistent great moments, because it's missing something as a whole and this is a bit up and down. For the lack of seriousness, it's lacking comedy, but it has suspense. The Basterds themselves are weak in the scenes that aren't the rendezvous, Pitt and Roth in particular.
