I'm sure his latest film will be no exception, having it's fans and detractors (I'm sure there will be�a segment of my brethern here who will instantly hate it for using the US title of Enzo Castellari's film, INGLORIOUS BASTARDS�as well as part of that film's premise). I just saw a preview of the film and�it looks fantastic. I'm stoked to see it already.�Starring Brad Pitt and Eli Roth(???) Also starring Mike Myers as British General Ed Fenech! Some guy playing a Nazi named Hugo Stiglitz! Cameos by Enzo Castellari, Bo Svenson, and more!� Who else is looking forward to this film?

Mirek Yeah, this will definitely not be a serious treatment on WWII. What I like about Tarantino's films is that they are goofy, over-the-top, often have some really funny/memorable dialogue, and pay homage to a lot of stars/films/directors/genres I enjoy (as well as ripping some of them off, I suppose). I've been inspired more than a few times to check out one of these films based on learning that they inspired some part of Tarantino's film (the last one I recall was watching LADY SNOWBLOOD after seeing KILL BILL).

I am on the fence with this one. I like Tarantino as an actor. He is funny and silly looking. However, aside from the first Kill Bill film, I find his stuff rather boring and way too talky. Not that dialogue is bad, but make it meaningful. A lot of his dialogue is just there to be hip and literally drags the picture down. Even Pulp Fiction. Yawn. Again though I like it when he acts. His part in Desperado was a hoot! Loved him in Planet Terror also! Great zombie flick. I will probably wait for the DVD.

His part in Desperado was a hoot! Loved him in Planet Terror also! Great zombie flick. I will probably wait for the DVD. I disagree!! And so would most of his fans, as those dialogue scenes are what make his films so great (along with the usual blood-shed). PULP FICTION has some classic lines in it, as does KILL BILL. DEATH PROOF was probably his most annoying film, as far as dialogue goes. I wanted to run all those women over after listening to them for an hour. And PLANET TERROR was worse! Tarantino is good in a few small bit roles, but that film is not one of them. FROM DUSK TO DAWN was a good role for him, I thought. I will reserve judgement on this film until I have actually seen it, but I am anticipating a return to something more akin to KILL BILL than to DEATH PROOF.

Posts: 3276 (07/02/09 14:03:10) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I still stand by my opinion that DEATH PROOF was much better than PLANET TERROR. I also think the KILL BILL movies are immensely entertaining, as is JACKIE BROWN, PULP FICTION and RESERVOIR DOGS. Didn't really like his segment in FOUR ROOMS though. His acting is...stilted but fun. Really enjoy FROM DUSK TIL DAWN, but it's not a Tarantino film. I'm cautious about INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS, though -- not a Brad Pitt fan and definitely NOT a fan of Eli Roth. Could still be good, but we'll see. Looking over the IMDB cast list, I see Cloris Leachman, Rod Taylor, and Julie Dreyfus are in it too. Tom Tykwer did the German dialogue translation too. Oh, there's Samm Levine too.

I also think that both parts of KILL BILL combined make up an epic masterpiece. Quentin Tarantino is one of the most exhilirating things to happen to "modern movies" (in part because they're partly homages to older movies!) in the last 15-20 years.

But I don't think DEATH PROOF is one of Tarantino's best. And it worked better as a shorter movie within the "GRINDHOUSE" concoction; the long cut was just too much.
