Lots of buzz about Tarantino's new offering Inglorious Basterds. Some of course hate it; mostly because people love to hate things. But most like, or even love, the movie. It has been analyzed to death by mobs of Tarantino aficionados the world over (myself included), so no need to go into the intoxicating details here.In typical Tarantino fashion, it abounds with homages to countless cult movie classics. Also, he once again captivates us with his genius ability to write dialogue (how many screen writers can start off a movie with a 20 minute interrogation scene and make it work brilliantly?).
Spaghetti Western theme songs, serious characters, cartoonish characters, scalping, revenge, movie makers, Nazi killings, secret agents, sociopaths, etc.... what more can one ask for in a Tarantino flick?
Do yourself a favor and go see it on the Big Screen. See it twice in fact.
