Inglourious Basterds (2009)

I was in sathyam for Inglorious Bastards and I was amazed to hear the shrill whistles when the name Quentin Tarantino appeared in the Title card.Its very difficult to be Quentin Tarantino because if any thing just resembles his style ,it can be easily branded as Copy cat from Tarantino.With Inglorious Basterds he just earns the uniqueness more with style and craft which he is made of.

Inglorious Bastards is told in chapter and We laugh at the scenes which aren’t funny but this what the intention of Tarantino also.Jew Hunter (Christopher Waltz) allows a girl Shosanna (Mélanie Laurent) to escape.Four years later the same girl finds her opportunity to kill a Nazi premier league in a Film premier. Aldo Raine recruits a team of eight Jewish-American soldiers to France as civilians to create panic to the Nazis.The missions of the Bastards and Shosanna meet ,Jew hunter strikes a deal with Bastards, but the Bastards remain clear to their mission.

Christopher waltz as the Jew Hunter is witty ,dangerous,thickly accented ,he drives us crazy with his long conversations in the tense moments of his victims.He knows what is he up to and this would be one of the best written character of Tarantino like Samuel Jackson character in Pulp fiction.Initially it was DiCaprio who was suppose to play this role ,Waltz has made a phenomenal presentation of a Nazi Hunter with poise and intensity.He makes the real bastard in the movie in hunting down and making the deal with Bradd Pitt.You cant enjoy his character but you cant stop being too keen on his way of expression and handling the clause.

We get to see the charming but quiet serious Mélanie Laurent whose opportunity to take revenge on the Nazi’s comes her way in the form of the premier show .She is not clumsy but she is definitely unlucky .Shosanna character defines the plot for the movie.We know who she is ,but the real meaning comes when she puts the final plan against Nazis.Brad Pitt is quiet amazing in his performance he has a very unusual accent but had a very clear course to take it up.He doesn’t give up even when he is caught and his humour continues with the Jew Hunter which actually deceives the Jew Hunter.He is much relaxed and he enjoys every second of his performance.


We see a French man cutting woods in the initial scene and we obviously get thrilled about the brutality of the initial scene going to be ,but its composed .We have a definite adventure right from the scene one.Sure we have scalps being removed,heads being brutally beaten up but still the blood of the movie remains in the well crafted script. Thats Tarantino ! The cult status of his movies makes us expect assorted music and characterisation. This movie doesn’t disappoint with any thing but this is definitely a diverse mould from Tarantino.We know about the lengthy conversation which he fits in his scenes which continues about a argument with no leads, Tarantino this time puts here with a differently poised scene in the bar with Nazi and German Actress.

At some point you need to agree that this is the matured movie of Tarantino for its stage and plot.Than Pulp fiction there were lots of meaning in the script which makes it much more engaging.I loved this movie truly for the characterisation and the splendid script of Tarantino.
