Review : Inglourious Basterds (2009)


Tarantino's Greatest!

Rating : 4/5

Genre : Drama | War

From the director of classics such as “Reservoir Dogs” , “Pulp Fiction” , “Kill Bill” , etc etc comes yet another masterpiece far better than the previouses , “Inglourious Basterds” is legend Quentin Tarantino’s brilliant creation of WWII. It is a movie worth every penny of your ticket or every tick-tock of the clock taken for downloading this amusing flick.

The story is set in Nazi-occupied France during WWII where a group of Jewish-American soldiers called as “The Basterds” by the Germans go on a spree killing Nazi’s and executing a plot to kill the third reich.

Though all that which is shown is not true and only fiction , one might start to wonder if all this could be true and if it was , then the world which we are living might be completely different and might have been better.

Quentin Tarantino is known for his eccentric way of movie making , rather story telling , making the viewer feel like reading a book with chapters one after another. He does stick to that in this – his best film yet. Everything , be it the camera work , the background music , the stunts , the fires , the explosions , the expressions of the cast in the out-focus , Tarantino conquers it all and my personal feeling is that , there is no one born yet to surpass the amount of entertainment that he provides.

The most important spoiler is that Brad Pitt is NOT the hero of the movie , i mean he does have a major role to play , the genius of acting is seen in a guy named Christoph Waltz who plays the character of “The Jew Hunter” deserves an accolade or maybe an Oscar too.

So , please do watch this movie as it is one of Tarantino’s finest and most entertaining movies.

Quentin Tarantino – Legend - wait for it - dary!!
