Inglourious Basterds

"Tarantino rewrites history with the only authority he has: his sovereignty as a filmmaker. Will Basterds polarize audiences? That's a given. But for anyone professing true movie love, there's no resisting it. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)." 

"To hell with the history books, this is Tarantino's own war. (...) a big, bold, audacious war movie (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of four)." 

"Is not boring, but it’s ridiculous and appallingly insensitive (...) The film is skillfully made, but it’s too silly to be enjoyed, even as a joke." 

"From the moment charming, smiling, laughing Nazi [Waltz] (...) sweeps onto the screen, he owns this film even more than its maker. (...) rarely has one of his movies felt as interminable as this one" 

"By turns surprising, nutty, windy, audacious and a bit caught up in its own cleverness, the picture is a completely distinctive piece of American pop art" 

"A transcendentally disappointing dud, in which Brad Pitt delivers his most charmless performance to date (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)" 

"A surprisingly tame war movie (...) The film is by no means terrible but those things we think of as being Tarantino-esque, the long stretches of wickedly funny dialogue, the humor in the violence and outsized characters strutting across the screen, are largely missing."
