A masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (21 January 2010)

I see this movie has the audience divided on their stance, I am among those that consider this movie to be a masterpiece. But only when you watch it the first time, because the tension in some of the scenes is only experienced one time, when you don't know what's gonna happen next. To all the Tarantino haters out there (lol) that claim this movie was predictable, well that is only because you know when Tarantino directs, a lot of people are going to die. I personally love all of Tarantino's movies, because he creates the unique moments. I don't know how much of this movie is similar to what actually happened during the WW2, but realize that each character is developed and has his own mind set. The German soldier that was trying to hit on Shoshana, he didn't know the situation until he got a bullet in the back. Was he a "bad guy"? Or Goebels, he was an ego maniac, but at the same time a silly guy that was trying to get the recognition for his film work from the fuhrer. And for what? Who are the people we look recognition from? None of them realized what was going on, they thought they were "ok". And then they all die in the cinema theater. And the spooky face of Shoshana appears in the smoke and says: "this is the Jewish revenge". Tarantino tried to say a message here, there are no "good" or "bad" guys, but in the end we all die and we won't see it coming.
