My Review:

Be prepared.  This is a Quentin Tarantino movie, so that usually means lots of violence – even if some of the violence makes you laugh uncomfortably.  The villain is so over-the-top you expect him to twirl his moustache!  Set during the Nazi war, Brad Pitt heads a group of rebel soldiers who have taken on the task of basically hunting and killing Nazi soldiers.  It’s an intricate storyline, that comes together magnificently in the end.  Inglorious Basterds earned many Oscar noms, and you can definitely understand why.  Completely original, well acted, well written.
