Inglorious Tarantino

I was really exited by the idea of watching "Inglorious Bastards or Bustards or whatever", and yesterday morning my father told me the video store had send it and he had already watch it twice because it was so great. Generally I don't share tastes in films with my father, but he does has some hits, this wasn't one of the. The acting is overacting. The plot does not exist. The story is completely unbelievable. This is fiction with over-fictional elements brought in a semi-serious setting. A farmer hiding Jews in the basement, being "interrogated" friendly by a Nazi, while the guards wait outside, they come in later and shoot them all and let one escape that is the only good part of the movie and actually, It is stupid. The stupidity does not end. This was not a funny movie, this was not satire, this was not entertainment, this was a long long list of stupid scenes, one unbelievable plot hole after another. An insult to history, an insult to every intelligent movie-lover. I was mad after seeing this. I really do not understand why people give compliments to this movie. Really.
As you might now or not, I love whatever Tarantino directs, writes or spits on, because his style is my style. But this, this was just bad, bad and stupid, stupid and american. If this was directed by any other director I would just say, "bah, its bad, but entertaining", but when you expect Tarantino, you don't expect entertaining, you expect Jackie Brown or Pulp Fiction or Crazy Grindhouse, but never entertaining. This is really bad. Just Bad. I watched it with my brother, and he hated it too, my mother hated it too, but my dad loved it. I don't know, but I think that this is just crap. And Pitt, someone who's acting I find generally fantastic fails in every single way. Mr. Waltz does saves the film, as his acting is superb. But as a whole, its just bad, really bad.
