Directed by Quentin Tarantino
Normally I approach a new Tarantino film with caution because more often than not, due to his fame and talent, his movies are severely hyped in the months leading up to their release; they are promoted with so much zeal and accompanied by so many industry buzz-words that I usually end [...]

Inglourious Basterds
Directed by Quentin Tarantino
Inglourious Basterds is Tarantino`s Pierrot Le Fou, his 8 1/2, a movie about cinema and quite possibly his most sophisticated entertaining and exhilarating film to date.

But the editing is sharper, it’s funnier and we get a better idea of the large scope of the story. American audiences seem to be getting sold the action [...]

A new trailer for Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds makes it on to the web. The film received a lukewarm reception at Cannes (some even considering it Tarantino’s worst film by far). It currently getting a huge reedit with the Harvey Weinstein pressuring him to scrap at least 40 minutes from the original 2 hour 40 [...]

Quentin Tarentino’s new film Inglorious Basterds was screened to critics with a mixed reception. It has its fans but has plenty of detractors. Most agree that the film is an entertaining romp but way too talky.
“Inglourious Basterds is great fun to watch, but the movie isn’t entirely engaging. And it is defiantly an art film, [...]
