Inglorious Bastards

Has Quentin Tarantino succumbed to infantilism? Inglorious Bastards plays out like the fantasy of a twelve year old. Hitler and the lot are certainly ripe for a spoof and Tarantino's film provides some harmless innocent clean fun. His cartoonish take on World War II has some odd flashes of brilliance - the scenes with the British agent seem to me the best - but as the film progresses to its Godawful climax, it elicits no more than an indulgent smile of mild disbelief.

I strongly disagree with you. I thought the movie was very good and well done. Moreover i think that even though you may not have liked it, it's outrageous that you only dedicate 6 or 7 miserable lines to it. Nevertheless everyone is entitled to their opion and I respect yours.
