I heard so many great things about this movie, but honestly I really couldn't get into it...even the villain, who apparently has won several awards, spent all of his potential within the first 20 minutes. The movie overall seemed too long...very strange for a Tarantino movie.

Everything is amazing about this movie, the imagination, acting, intensity and story telling. Christoph Waltz is such a great actor that his acting captures every second of your attention. Brad Pitt has expanded his acting to another level.

One of the worst pictures I have ever seen. The way it was ******** flow from scene to scene and the poor lighting made the movie hard to watch. I believe the whole industry should be ashamed to award this movie any awards except for Christpher's outstanding acting performance.

Isn't about history or war, or people and their problems, or anything of substance or meaning. It's a movie about other movies. For all its visual bravura and occasional bursts of antic inspiration, it feels trivial, the work of a kid who can't stop grabbing his favorite shiny plaything. Full Review

Tarantino exercises both his obsession with vengeance and his fascination with the movies. Full Review

Tarantino's radical rewriting of the war's ending is audacious and perversely enthralling. But if Inglorious Basterds were about something more than the cinematic thrill of watching Nazis suffer, it could have been a revelation. Full Review

With Inglourious Basterds, Quentin Tarantino has made his best movie since "Pulp Fiction." He has also made what could arguably be considered the most audacious World War II movie of all-time. Full Review

Nothing about the emotionally unmoored Inglourious Basterds adds up. Whether it's parody, farce or a fever dream is anyone's guess. Full Review
