Inglourious Basterds begins in German-occupied France, where Shoshanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent) witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz). Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris, where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema.
Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt) organizes a group of Jewish soldiers to engage in targeted acts of retribution. Known to their enemy as "The Basterds," Raine's squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget Von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger) on a mission to take down the leaders of The Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquee, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own...

This was an awesome film, 2 and a half hours of pure 100% tarantino GOLD. lots and lots of awesome dialogue and nasty bloody nazi killing. the story is simple and sweet, its a very interesting point of view thats for sure, the cast is first class as always, brad pitt was awesome, and eli roth was great too as the bear jew. this was a long film and if your not too much into war movies you may get tired of the long subtitled scenes, but if your a tarantino fan then you know what to expect, this is another genre that tarantino has cracked and shows that there is nothing he cant do.
Quentin Tarintino proves with this movie that he is a true Film Making genius, not just wannabe hack who got lucky with a couple of movies.
The way the stories are told in this movie and the tension in some of the scenes just cant be faked.
A few of the scenes were so tense, I felt I almost needed to pause the film just so I could prepare for the inevitable.
Ther are long scenes of cat and mouse dialogue in the film, but they are so well written, that you become totally engrossed.
My only niggle is, that I am not sure how some of the more suspenseful scenes will hold up under repeat viewings.
The acting is Exceptional by all involved.
Highly recommended
i felt this movie was a massive let down. tarantino must be on a different planet. if its so good why has it done so poorly. too long and the narrative to drawn out.
best bit was the cinema part near the end. very good.
but overall i felt like i had wasted a whole eve.
Will keep it short and sweet, great film great blu-ray.
Completely agree with the other reviews, in my opinion this is near enough perfection.
Tarantino is clearly a genius and i was extremely impressed, superb acting throughout with genuine foreign actors making the narrative flawless. The intensity of the scenes are compelling, only tarantino can make extended dialogue work with his usual addition of graphic violence making it even more enjoyable.
Brad Pitt is excellent and the lesser known actors really shine aswell.
This masterpiece should only be watched in stunning Blu-Ray
