Inglourious Basterds: Tarantino Is maturing?
October 28
After, for me, disappointing "Death Proof" Tarantino returns to the screen with "Inglourious Basterds" quite correct translation of "Inglourious Basterds."
I was curious to know if you continue to fulfill their rule, which began with Pulp Fiction "after a very good movie, disappointing movie" (which is fulfilled in his last four).
Thus, Pulp Fiction is great, fairly porous Jackie Brown, Kill Bill, it becomes great (Here I do not distinguish between the two parties, because that was a decision of producers to see the original length), and Death Proof, as I that bad, so if the rule is met, this had to be good again.
The bastards were good looking, for a gang of Jews in occupied France trying to hunt Nazis, led by Brad Pitt, quite promising.
After seeing it, but I think I could have given more of himself, I think it's a movie of Tarantino's second level (with Reservoir), without reaching the levels of "Pulp" or "Kill Bill", which for me are mythical.
The movie begins with chapters, a good sign. In the first we see one of the main characters, Colonel Landa, primarily responsible for the hunting of Jews in France. The character is played brilliantly by German actor Christoph Waltz , while eclipse comes to Pitt himself. Colonel Landa is a refined, and apparently harmless, if only in form, because his inner cruelty surprise us
In a masterful interrogation sequence, high intensity, (remember the confrontation Hopper-Walken in True Romance, which Tarantino's script is also), it displays its methods with a French peasant accused of harboring Jews.
Later we are introduced to the bastards, an army of Jews led by Pitt will be a squad infiltrated to cause terror among the German lines. His methods are far less refined than the German colonel. In fact, Brad Pitt, Lieutenant Aldo Reine objective will mark his squad that will get you 100 Nazi scalps each. Pitt himself is responsible for cutting the cavalier, Apache-style, and let his "personal stamp" on the survivors. In the bastards do not like to leave more than the minimum survivors so that their adventures will reach the ears of Hitler himself. In one of these ambushes is the scene of "The Bear Jew", Tarantino at its best.
Note that for the cast of the film Tarantino wanted to give an air of authenticity, each character is played by actors of their own nationality. Thus, the Nazis are played by Germans, when they will talk to each other in German.
In another chapter we see Goebbels, Propaganda Minister and one of the most powerful men of the Reich, to extol the morale of the troops wheel the true story of a sniper, barricaded in a bell tower that repels him only 100 enemies. This sniper, Private Zoller, played in the film and the film within the film by Daniel Brühl German Spanish, will be elevated to the status of national hero.
Zoller, who is the darling of Goebbels, the force that the film is released in a theater owned by Shossana (Melanie Laurent), a beautiful French has a score to settle with the Colonel, and Zoller is in love.
The bastards, aware of this release, and that will be present jerifaltes Reich great plan, supported by a German actress who acts as a double agent, infiltrating this movie to wreak havoc and destruction.
The infiltration attempt comes out worse than expected, so we have to improvise a strategy much riskier end (do not give additional details not pop the movie)
In this last chapter we see more of the glorious moments of the movie: one of the few romantic scenes that remind Tarantino, among Shossana Zoller, and that pays off in a very own.
Nor does it waste the conversation between Bradd Pitt and Nazi Colonel, without reaching the levels of initial questioning is also second to none in the film.
The end, which does not reveal, it is also true Tarantino.
Therefore, a pretty good movie, which despite being set in World War II is not war, nor a comedy, although it has comic moments, not a drama, despite its dramatic moments. It's a good mix of everything, characteristic of a genius like Tarantino. So I think, aesthetics, and especially the soundtrack, wanted to pay homage to the "Spaghetti Western"
Of course, I missed most violent acts, sadistic bastards, something that was supposed to Tarantino. The film is less violent and bloody than we have used, especially after the bloodshed of Kill Bill. Is it a sign of maturity?
However, the most unpleasant surprise I took with the soundtrack. I do not know if this time, wanting to be consistent with the time, is his first film set in a different period to the present, has a soundtrack so powerful, and fully seated, and the rest of his films. If anything Tarantino has always fit perfectly is to know music in specific scenes. This time abuses the instrumentals in the style "Spaghetti" and the songs are conspicuous by their absence.

Rating 7.5 (8 minus 0.5, the disappointment of the soundtrack)
I have not seen the movie so I can not think of it, although the title is Inglorious Basterds and not "to" Bastards.
You say, and I quote: "I think it's a movie of Tarantino's second level (with Reservoir)", I feel horrible and an incredible effrontery.
Reservoir is at the same height (no doubt) Pulp or Kill With it revolutionized the aesthetics of cinema (maybe you were you watching Eurovision).
I think you should sit down and reconsider because age has played you a trick. Did you mean to Four Rooms is on a lower rung: O but do Reservoir Dogs? are a "Inglorious Basterd". And another thing, after Pulp, Four Rooms will then Jackie Brown ...
That will be mild afternoon
Let's take:
Corrected the title, small lapses.
Criticism is mine and f ... as I want.
To say that Reservoir is the second level in his films is a personal opinion, and eye, in Tarantino's second level is equivalent to better than 95% of the directors will ever be able to do.
Reservoir as it seems exceptional debut, and only at the beginning (dissertation Like a Virgin, and the "Hook on a feeling" that sounds as they dressed) is great.
Still, I think that was exceeded by Pulp or Kill Bill, which I think works of art.
So, at best, the term is unfortunate, because the second level would seem to be desmerecerlas, when not, by any means.
At least we agree that Jackie Brown and Death Proof I suppose, are not even remotely at the level of the others.
By the way, Four Rooms is tucked in the bag because it is a film of four stories each headed by a director. To see if the head plays tricks on you, Is it age?
Finally bet that you saw before Pulp and Reservoir probably ...
Anyway we can always open a post, whether Reservoir is on par with the others. I promise to see her soon, because while I have not seen
I can assure you have not seen Pulp before me unless it is in the U.S. because I saw in cinema in its opening weekend and Reservoir, then neither I know, as I recall, was passed by Canal + as "rare Habis ".
At Four Rooms I mean obviously its part, because if we get well, Death Proof comes in the pack of two films (Planet Terror and Death Proof) listed Grindhouse ...
Regarding the post of Reservoir, choose a weapon and place ...
Not the same, nothing like Four Rooms of the pack.
Thus, according to wiki: "Death Proof WAS released theatrically in the United States as part of a double feature with Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror under the collective title Grindhouse in order to replicate the experience of viewing Exploitation film double features in a" grindhouse "theater . Were the films released separately outside the United States and on DVD "
The pack was for the U.S., and most of all because they are buddies. That is, they wanted to do a kind of homage to the movies on double session to those who were fans of adolescents. But each wrote and directed two different movies (although both are co-producers)
Here there were released together. Just seen the two movies together earn something, but I still think it's no big thing.
Pulp fiction, Release 95, only two cinemas in Gandia Do you think the estrenarían without delay?
NO, the movies are infumables, that's for sure, but by the same token to Four Rooms can not be considered a Tarantino film to be a part of the movie, Death Proof not to be a part of a pack, only said that.
I do not know what you mean to estranarla with restraso, I know I went to see a movie.
