    Saw "Basterds" last night, wow

    Some of the dialog parts were very long but intense. I would give 40% of the movie 5 stars and the other 60% 3 stars. The rewriting of history is fun and very bloody. Some nice twists and the cinematography was fabulous.

    People clapped at the end, what a nice way it would have been to have history actually happen.

    Eli Roth was hilarious. Mike Myers was almost unrecognizable until you heard him speak. I would not have caught on so fast if his name had not been in the credits to begin with. Odd to have him in this type of flick.

    District 9 was unsettling and sometimes made me a little sick to my stomach.

    have a great movie watching weekend.

      Not many here seem to like it. I thought it was fucking great. Tarantino is about dialogue, not action. People with no patience or attention span should stay away from this one.

      If you like intense long-playing scenes, then its for you.

        Tarantino is hit or miss Jackie Brown was a great movie but he had a great writer on it

        Pulp Fiction on the other hand was stylized garbage

        True Romance, good movie

        Kill Bill was a turd...two turds actually

        You get the point havent seen this prolly wont till it hits the retail market

                    Saw this one last night as well, loved it.

                    As long as Tarantino spent working on this one I kinda expected it to be his magnum opus, so I was a touch let down. You could tell alot was cut for time. Maybe next year when the super super deluxe version is released it could be truly great, but what came out in the theatre, though good, lacked stylistic continuity. It was almost as if there were two movies shot by two different directors. Some parts felt like total Tarantino / 70's style - Let's hear it for Hugo Stiglitz- and then you have the Shoshanna Bowie, "Cat People" sequence that feels like an 80's throwback to Wings of Desire.

                    Just my 2 cents. There's alot of this movie that's left on the cutting room floor, like the history of "The Bear Jew" and his bat, good stuff. Even so, the movie still rocked. "This is jewish vengeance".

                      not only is tarantino known for his dialogue, but it slipped my mind how much i appreciate the camera work in his movies. i love the single, continuous shot that captures so much of whats going on, makes you feel like you're there in the room or outside by the marquee or wherever it happens to be

                        Saw it last night... thats 2:30 hours of my life that I will never get back.

                        Worst Tarantino movie ever.... I thought Kill Bill was over the top, this movie makes a Michael Bay movie look understated.

                        Well at least now my GF HAS to sit through District 9 for wasting my time with this turd.

                            1. Tarantino directed AND wrote Jackie Brown...adapted it from a Novel. So who is this other writer you're speaking of? Are you saying Tarantino can't write? Otherwise Jackie Brown wouldn't have been good? Which brings me to my next point......

                            2. Tarantino ONLY wrote True Romance. Didn't direct it...so I guess he is a good writer now?

                            3. Pulp fiction is considered his best work. Stylized garbage? IT IS TARANTINO. It's his Mona Lisa. It's the movie that defined him and made him who he is.....garbage?

                            4. I'm guessing we don't have similar tastes in movies. You probably think Cool Runnings was the best movie ever while I on the other hand would give it to The Godfather 2.

                              1. That other writer is a guy named Elmore Leonard who is one of the greatest mystery/thriller niche writers ever. I love Jackie Brown and you can see his influence in the movie, but he had some great source material. That said, I still think Tarantino is a great writer.

                              Overall I am a fan of Tarantino. I think his best work is Reservior Dogs then Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown third. I think all three of those movies are amazing and they are movies I can watch several times and not get tired of. But this new movie is a waste of time. Here is why I think that: First, The trailer leads you to believe you are going to watch Brad Pitt and the crew thrash their way through the Nazis and there are some great scenes, but that is only about 1/3rd of the movie. So they aren't even in about 2/3rds of the movie. The other plots are fine, but the problem is they are in subtitles and they are long winded. I understand that he drags the dialogue out so it slowly ratchets up the tension, but it doesn't really work because you are reading your ass off to keep up with the dialogue so you can't pay that much attention to what is going on in the movie itself.

                              Part of what makes a Tarantino movie great is his dialogue and getting to hear the actors say it. When it is subtitled, it loses some of that edge and electricity that makes it great. Had the movie been in English during those scenes, it might have been better. Or, had it been in subtitles, but been about an hour shorter it might have been better. When I left the theater I had Johnny Rotten's voice echoing in my head, "Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?"

                                  It is the same thing as not approving of Obama and being labeled a Republican or racist . . . or both.

I love Jackie Brown and you can see his influence in the movie, but he had some great source material. That said, I still think Tarantino is a great writer.

                                            Overall I am a fan of Tarantino. I think his best work is Reservior Dogs then Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown third. I think all three of those movies are amazing and they are movies I can watch several times and not get tired of. But this new movie is a waste of time. Here is why I think that: First, The trailer leads you to believe you are going to watch Brad Pitt and the crew thrash their way through the Nazis and there are some great scenes, but that is only about 1/3rd of the movie. So they aren't even in about 2/3rds of the movie. The other plots are fine, but the problem is they are in subtitles and they are long winded. I understand that he drags the dialogue out so it slowly ratchets up the tension, but it doesn't really work because you are reading your ass off to keep up with the dialogue so you can't pay that much attention to what is going on in the movie itself.

                                            Part of what makes a Tarantino movie great is his dialogue and getting to hear the actors say it. When it is subtitled, it loses some of that edge and electricity that makes it great. Had the movie been in English during those scenes, it might have been better. Or, had it been in subtitles, but been about an hour shorter it might have been better. When I left the theater I had Johnny Rotten's voice echoing in my head, "Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?"
                                            Reading subtitles becomes organic to watching the movie, if you've seen a few before. It's not like you actually read them -- it's more like taking a snapshot without even really looking directly at it. Kind of hard to explain. I don't see how you could be reading them -- the subtitles only appear for a second, sometimes a fraction of that.
