Inglourious Basterds
2009
A Jewish cinema owner (Mélanie Laurent) in occupied Paris is forced to host a Nazi movie premiere, where a radical group of American Jewish soldiers called the Basterds, led by Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt), plans to roll out a score-settling scheme. The face-off is about to go down -- that's if Col. Hans Landa aka "The Jew Hunter" (Christoph Waltz) doesn't get in the way. Quentin Tarantino directs this World War II-set spaghetti Western.

Quentin Tarantino has an interesting take on history sometimes. The middle of this movie was actually really uneventful, which is odd for a Tarantino film. I have to give Brad Pitt props, he was hilarious. Most of the other actors were good too.
Surely a very good movie but it left me wanting! It was drawn out and didn't really have much to do with the Inglourious Basterds as a whole. I expected more from QT.
