Movie Review: Inglorious Basterds

The DVD was with me. But i couldn't make up my mind whether to watch it. The cover looked interesting plus it had won an Oscar. I wasn't keen on watching a depressing thing as it was about the Nazi- Jew thing.. After all it was by Tarantino. But I was drawn to it & when I heard the music i could not resist watching the rest. The movie begins in a grim manner with a murder scene. In fact all the scenes have a liberal sprinkling of that whenever possible. Do you think Quentin was a vampire in his previous life or something?

I prepared myself for a dismal yet interesting story. But I was in for a surprise. The movie has a twist. The narration is different and the general feel is that of black humor. The Jews get back at the Nazis for a change. Brad Pit looks & feels different. But the movie belongs to Christopher Waltz, the main Nazi and Melanie Laurent a Jew. They are too good. Diana Kruger also makes an appearance.At the end of the movie I din feel all that bad. If you can take all the shooting with a pinch of salt, it's fine really....
