Divided by chapters and well filmed from the start, as well as containing enough of an interesting story, that would have been remarkable to learn from, had it been made at all by any American movie director, ‘Inglorious Basterds’, sadly demonstrates a severe lack of style, although does have some scenes surfacing throughout that could make it a decent enough movie to watch.
Yet expectation of anything new will obviously lead to serious disappointment.
Unnecessarily long, with attempts to tension that Tarantino is clearly capable of directing on an excellent level with, achievement is graciously missed and constantly throughout its entirety.
Mediocre
Instead of momentum gathering and continuing on, the movie stalls at a level of mediocrity, becoming even tedious at times, with the resounding question as to why Quentin Tarantino of all modern American film-makers, has not made a movie of capable quality for some considerable time.
Although the story of revenge towards Nazi’s in occupied France, the path-work of coincidence and chance for revenge through violent action and destruction is told well enough, the process of telling the story through a movie seems to defeat itself entirely.
In its entirety, the only major attraction and point to watching ‘Inglorious Basterds’ is the name Quentin Tarantino as director. Sadly the director has managed to tarnish his own name and capabilities, I wonder why?
