Was there any purpose to this movie other than gore?

Rating: 5/10 (15 November 2009)

I admire Quentin Tarantino for his creative mind but find most of the movies to be a tribute to murder and violence. Putting the gore aside you'd be compelled to say "it was a good movie". I enjoyed the drama in the bar when the inglorious bastards met the German actress (the informer), and everything went wrong. I enjoyed the drama around the theater and that the Germany's best Marksman fell in low with the Jewish girl boasting about his many kills (without consideration to whether her relatives or friends would be among the victims) and how the circle is closed at the end.
But after seeing the mass murder scene in the theater I cannot help to be disgusted by the glorification of hatred, murder and revenge. The basic ingredients of anything marked Quentin Tarantino.
