Inglourious Basterds is a great movie!

Inglorious Basterds is a exquisite and intriguing movie located at the occupied France during the Third Reich. It may be cataloged not serious or respectful enough ,but it has to be considered the style and manner by Quentin Tarantino to interpret real facts and transform them to tell stories. A marvelous and original version of one time that changes the end of one of the most tense and remembered tragedies of history.

Victory for Germany but tragedy and pain to France. Inglourious Basterds shows a different end of this happening, based on revenge by two jewish forces. A woman whose family was killed, Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent); and the head of a group of eight american-jewish soldiers, First Lieutenant Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt). The fictional unconceivable end is what makes the movie an unusual experience.

The determination and power of the characters to fight for their ends are exceptional. Their motifs are based of revenge, handled out with an audacity on deception, but always keeping on mind their dignity and courage. Constructing with secret meetings and elaborated arrangements in order to end Hitler’s domain, genious women and fearless men perform with elegance their conspiracy.

When it refers to a serious and polemic time as it does in the movie, there will be negative judges and commentaries. It is hard work handling a situation where many people were killed. Times where people were used to murders day by day; times where horror and fear surrounded all places. The movie succeeded on the challenge of portraying all kind of violence with black humour so that everyone can be delighted by the combination of unique dialogues and images.

A well written and directed movie carrying infinite expectations for and alternative end of a decisive historical time carried on by people who deserve their revenge. With black humour and sarcasm the movie stands out with strenght. It may not be the best movie of all times, but Inglourious Basterds won’t disappoint anyone, not for one minute of the two hours and a half.
