Quentin Tarantino’s long-awaited WWII movie Inglorious Basterds made a stir in Cannes, most of critics were counting hours to enjoy it. Frankly speaking, I was also looking forward to watching this film. And now I must admit with the critics – the film was fine, catching but not a masterpiece at all. Tarantino failed to reach the height of “Pulp Function” once again. According to the critics, the movie has the following pros and cons:

PROS:

• perfect acting. Everybody’s performance was fantastic, brilliant and highly natural. It was real pleasure to enjoy them acting;
• wit and smart dialogues;
• realistic depiction of the historic events;
• incredible costumes;
• a great written story.

CONS:

• this movie is lack of actions, I think movies about war should be more detailed and contain more action scenes;
• the movie has too much violence and some of these scenes are obviously completely unnecessary;
• too extensive and sometimes even boring dialogues;
• the movie seems to be hurried up;
• the end definitely doesn’t meet the expectations while watching this movie;
• it doesn’t provoke a feeling of move that has been polished to perfection like a gem.

Or, please, don’t feel upset, it’s only critics review. However, I am ready to bet the movie has dozens of really terrific scenes!
