Inglourious Basterds (2009)

I am not a fan of Quentin Tarantino, but this film is absolutely amazing. The award-winning World War II drama is a superb, unique and grotesque portrayal of sorts of some of the actual events that occurred.  What really won me over with this film was its incorporation of cinema in a movie about War and of course movies.

It's really interesting, because you have great action sequences in here too. Weird huh? But the glory at the center of this film is the story and its characters. Christoph Waltz's antagonist Hans Landa, is an unsuspecting man of evil desires. There's so much persistency and depth to "Inglourious Basterds" that makes it so memorable.

Tarantino uses quirky and interesting ways at presenting this film. Even though the tedious subtitled European countries languages is used to provide information to audiences, it gets old after awhile.

The acting in the film is just as wonderful as the feature itself. Starring: Brad Pitt, Christoph Waltz, Michael Fassbender and Diane Kruger. They all give outstanding and emotional acting efforts in this film.

Yes, both World Wars were bad. But I bet you've never seen it told like this. This film is an utter sensation and dropping achievement. Totally worth all the accolades it received the year following its release.
