REVIEW #1: INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS



"You probably heard we ain't in the prisoner-takin' business; we in the killing nazi business. And cousin, Business is a-boomin'." - Lt. Aldo Raine





The first Tarantino I watched was his two-part piece 'Kill Bill'. I watched it on VHS and was amazed at the entertainment value I received. Three years later, I watched 'Pulp Fiction', Quentin's most critically acclaimed film, garnering him the 1994 Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. I thought to myself whether the man could pull off a stunt again, and i'll tell you - he did.





In what immature, impatient viewers may find the most boring and long-drawn opening scenes, may not the case: As I discovered that Chapter One (As Tarantino calls it himself), the commencement with a 17-minute straw, is the initial setup for the remainder of the film. In other words, minutes and minutes of important dialogue; quickly cut to a no-holds-barrel, violent outbreak with extravagant proportions. This concept is what I believe Quentin Tarantino himself created.





The acting is very well done, with Christolph Waltz playing Col. Hans Landa, as the absolute diamond in the motion picture. May the Austrian gentleman win his Oscar. He steals the show, along with four different languages plus a moderately monstrous character who feels so natural and effortless. Melanie Laurent, who plays Shosanna Dreyfus the sweet-looking French girl, is fantastic as the ruthless yet cunning heroine with careless revenge covering 90% of the time (the other 10% is the act of avoiding an irritating, yet emotional soldier). However, Eli Roth (who plays Sgt. Donny Donowitz) is debatable in his role.


Thank God for Sally Menke, for her wondrous efforts into building an award-winning cast.





The music integrated is brilliant, along with the gentle existence of David Bow playing behind a famous still from the film. One highlight is Ennio Morricone's "Un Amico", played during one of the film's most powerful and heart-sinking scenes.





All in all, the film's ultimate climax is long awaited for. Go see it now!
