Needs to get back to basics

Rating: 1/10 (21 December 2009)

There's two scenes that stand out from the disjointed mess that is Inglorious Basterds and one of those is squandered when QT just can't help himself and breaks out the gun fight at the OK coral. There we lose one of the more interesting characters who's long introduction pecked our interest, alas to become a false alarm. Implausible story line, overacting (BP), inappropriate sound overs, clichés and cheesiness all add to the heavy load that ultimately outweigh the few redeeming qualities. A film like Kelly's Heroes does it better and without the confusion that arty pretentiousness has inflicted on this work.
