But I did like the two bars of Einstuerzende Neubauten at the beginning of the trailer ....

apparently I'm not allowed to watch that trailer in Canada

LOL


Not sure what to think about this. I'm not sold on Brad Pitt

There was so much to love about this film I'd give it a B+. Some of the scenes and most of the performances hit it out of the park.

It was not at all the movie I was expecting -- I thought it was going to be about the group and its behind-the-lines shenanigans blowing up Nazis and cutting their scalps off, but that occupied literally about 4 minutes of the entire screen time. Instead we get a suspenseful thriller, and action movie, and a revenge porn with Eli Roth looking like he's going to ejaculate as he guns down the Naht-zis.

I was reminded a bit of Evil Dead 2 -- this is a film that is entirely of its genre (revenge picture), but transcends it too by the shear virtuosity of its film making.

The revenge picture is not a genre I have a lot of affinity for and it left me a bit cold at the end. I mean, what was this movie about, really? Parading nefarious villains on stage in two dimensions so the audience can chortle and gloat when they're exterminated? It's hard for me to celebrate anybody's death, even a cartoon Nazi.


*** Minor Spoiler Alert ***

Also I gotta say that even granting this isn't exactly a historical reenactment, it stretched credulity to put it mildly. I mean, Hitler's supposed to be at a movie premier in Paris and they don't even have guards at the main entrance?

saw this and loved it.. I want to go see it again.

Dude its Tarantino. He. Never. Shuts. Up. If we were in a relationship I'd suffocate him in his sleep. But I dig most of his movies. Just saw Hell Ride though and man did that suck. The only reason to watch it is the very heavy irony involving David Carradine's character.

and what's with all the sound of teeth nashing on silverware. heebie jeebies that is horrendous. Almost as bad as a bunch of chicks saying "nigga pleeeze!"
