Inglorious Ba**ards

“You probably heard we ain’t in the prisoner-takin’ business; we in the killin’ Nazi business. And cousin, business is a-boomin’.” ~ Lt. Aldo Raine

That line is one of the many great one liners from Brad Pitt as Lt. Aldo Raine, the Commanding Officer of the “Basterds” a group of soldiers with one mission, deploy dressed as civilians and kill Nazi’s. Brad Pitt was AMAZING as Lt. Raine – Quentin Tarantino said when he wrote the part he usually has 2 or 3 people in mind for the part, but he only wanted Brad Pitt to play Aldo.

Pitt had me laughing, wanting to cheer, and rooting for his character the whole movie, he really stole the show. Eli Roth of HOSTEL fame played Sgt. Donnie Donowitz aka The Jew Bear, a Jewish American Soldier notorious for his brutal method of killing Nazi’s. Did I mention that one requirement for being a “Basterd” is providing Aldo with 100 Nazi scalps? Awesome!

Tarantino really outdid himself with Basterds. The movie is funny, action packed, dramatic, and fast paced. I did not get bored at all during the movie and found the story to be interesting and not just another “Kill Nazi’s and Hitler” type cookie cutter war movie. The score in the movie was awesome, their were scenes where the score really added to the drama of it and sometimes the humor. Let’s not forget about the bad ass fight scenes, scalping scenes, and everyone loves Tarantino for his graphic kill scenes.

I give this movie 9/10 stars, the only reason I did not give it 10 is because their was once scene where they were eating strudel that I found totally unnecessary and felt it did not have any place in the movie. Oh well, go out and see this movie RIGHT ****ING NOW, because it was awesome.

Darrell summed it up pretty good. Brad Pitt and Christopher Waltz were great in every scene they had. (And i agree, the Strudel scene was really unecessary, especially with the all close ups)
