A modern classic

Rating: 10/10 (10 April 2019)

I bought this movie about a week ago and I don't know how many times I've reached the first two scenes. The conversation between Col. Hans Landa and the dairy farmer is one of the best scenes in cinema to date, and even though the next scene is Lt. Aldo Raine giving a speech to his soldiers, it helps to establish a small connection between Hans and Aldo, being that both of them claim to have come down from the mountains to aid in the war efforts.
Reading a few negative reviews, most if not all of them bringing up all the table talks full of subtext in this film, but a few of them praised Pulp Fiction, which when you think about it, is also a collection of conversations full of subtext. Don't get me wrong, I love Pulp Fiction, but doesn't it seem a little hypocritical to praise one thing but criticise the other, when at least in my opinion, the quality of the subtext in Inglorious is just the tiniest bit worse than Pulp Fiction, but not worth knocking it all the way down to 1 star.
