    'Inglorious Basterds': Long March, By Kurt Loder  Aug 22, 2009
    All of this said, the movie is beautifully photographed (by Robert Richardson, who also shot Tarantino's "Kill Bill" pictures). And it contains some wonderfully well-constructed set-piece scenes especially the opening farmhouse encounter (overextended though it is) that introduces the silky-scary SS colonel Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz), and later a chaotic shootout in a French pub. There's also some gorgeous imagery: A shot of an ecstatic face rearing up on a screen amid engulfing flames is one... (VHI.com -- Music News)

    Tarantino makes a maniacal mockery of the Holocaust  Aug 21, 2009
    Yet you come away amused and unmoved, and that wasn t the case with, say, Kill Bill, where by the end Uma Thurman had assumed an exhausted, hard-won majesty. For the first time in a Tarantino movie, the women s roles feel underwritten, and most of the men don t get enough screen time. (Boston Globe)

    With 'Basterds,' Tarantino answers critics  Aug 21, 2009
    The critical grumblings around Tarantino began with the two-part magnum opus "Kill Bill," in which he seemed to compress every chopsocky flick and revenge B-picture he had ever seen into one gigantic sprawl ... "Grindhouse" bombed when it was released in April 2007, a lackluster follow-up to the profitable but coolly received "Kill Bill Vol. 2." Suspicions arose that Tarantino had gotten lost in the junk-movie obsessions of his youth and was no longer relevant to the ordinary film-goer. (Fresno Bee)

    "Inglourious Basterds"  Aug 21, 2009
    Throughout his career, Tarantino has often been guilty of showing off how much he knows about movies, sometimes to the point of being a bore (as in "Kill Bill, Vol. 1"). But over the years, he's gotten better at integrating that knowledge and affection into his work, instead of wielding it like a billy club. (Salon)

    Review: Tarantino's 'Basterds' Bloody Brilliant  Aug 21, 2009
    Tarantino has no qualms about turning the history of World War II on its head with "Inglourious Basterds," which begins with the tag line, "Once upon a time in Nazi-occupied France." Unlike the fractured narratives of his previous films including "Pulp Fiction" and the "Kill Bill" movies, "Inglourious Basterds" is mostly told in chronological fashion from two points of view. The narratives eventually intersect, where Tarantino ultimately marries his love of movies with pivotal set piece: a posh... (Click2Houston, TX)

    Taken as a yin-yang whole, Kill Bill Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 constitute a globe-spanning feat of genre scholarship, blithely connecting the dots from Chinese kung fu to Japanese swordplay, from blaxploitation to manga to spaghetti Western ... But there is something strikingly of the moment and perhaps even utopian about Kill Bill's obsessive pastiche, which at once celebrates and demonstrates the possibilities of the voracious, hyperlinked 21st-century media gestalt: the idea that whole histories and...

    Tarantino does digress, as is his wont, but these are not the irritating indulgences they were in Kill Bill. As with Pulp Fiction, Tarantino's focused direction automatically welds you to the heart of a scene - whether it's an action set-piece, a comic burst of violence (Aldo loves etching swastikas into the foreheads of his Nazi captives), a moment of straight-out farce (poor Hitler, playing the fool again) or during one of the film's many magnificently sculpted dialogue scenes.

    Review: 'Basterds' has its glorious moments  Aug 19, 2009
    "Inglourious Basterds" may be Tarantino's most artfully photographed film next to his "Kill Bill" movies (Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Richardson shot them all), with spaghetti Western touches at the beginning eventually giving way to dramatic noir imagery by the end. But for every inspiring moment or performance -- Waltz especially stands out, in four different languages, no less -- Tarantino frustrates in equal measure. (Jefferson City News Tribune, MO)
