I'm going to see it in a few hours. Will report back tomorrow. I expect it to be excellent. For a frame of reference, I think Inglorious Basterds is Tarantino's best work. Sure his first movies moved the needle more but I think it all came together in that movie. His most polished and complete work. So I expect this to compete with that.

So, first a few negative things. It's long. It's unnecessarily long in my opinion. It drags and seems a bit confused in parts. That's really about it.

Other than that it's excellent. It doesn't surpass Basterds, where every scene hit it and was spot on but it certainly pays off. It's 100% worth going to see and the acting of Leo and Pitt is fantastic. Perhaps Pitt has too much Aldo the Apache but it's great nonetheless. Definitely recommend. It's a beautiful movie.

Thanks man...I personally consider Basterds a lesser of his movies so this should be good.  

How many QT movies have you seen?  IGBSTRDS is great but there are many others better

I've seen them all. I think Pulp Fiction is a more polished version of Resevoir Dogs. RD was a game changing movie and I loved True Romance but that's not technically QT. However, I view Basterds as his most polished movie of all. Every scene just hit. Django was great and I like H8 too but I still think everything came together in Basterds.

I agree with all of this...

Kill Bill 1 is still a favorite of mine and love the Grindhouses too.  I can’t discount IBs though, that movie is fuggin amazing.

Forgot about KB1. Yes that movie is fantastic. It's very QT and it's nod to Kung Fu movies of the 70s is fantastic. However, I do think that specifically that nod to those movies makes it less...mature? (from a film making stand point) than IB. I'm not sure what I'm thinking is what I'm saying. Anyways, I agree that Leo's performance was fantastic but I saw the Red Letter Media review of Once and they did bring up an interesting point.

Leo did a great job playing the has been actor who has revelation relating the story of the has been cowpoke in the book he's reading to his own life. Leo does a great job with that scene. BUT how much more meta or impactful would it have been if, instead of Leo, that part wasn't played by an A lister but instead an actor that QT is rehabilitating? I don't know who that might've been but that would've been an extra level that would've be amazing. But I thought Leo was great and did a fantastic job. He doesn't really make bad movies.

Love QT Grindhouse, highly underrated IMO,  the dialog between the  characters is Outstanding! 

 

Bastards is one I seen in the theater and didn't really care for it, seen it at home several times after that and its incredible also great dialog. Prbly in my Top 5 now

      Grades are in; how did Panthers do in this years draft

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Not to mention, the trade back in the 2nd was A++ in terms of value to pick up a future 2nd to move back 13 spots. The trade up for Legette was also excellent. Even if you hate the picks, the draft itself was extremely successful. They got the top RB in the whole draft in the middle of the second round. A RAS monster at WR. They got who many had as TE 2, a contested catch machine with ZERO drops, in the 4th. Another explosive RAS guy at LB to develop behind Thompson and Jewell. And we’ve got whiners in here saying we got no physical traits, a TE who can’t catch, and a RB who won’t start for 3 years. People just determined to complain whether they even know what they’re complaining about or not.

      More on the Panthers and Rams 2nd round trade

      By Martin · Posted

      Obviously it is not even close to offsetting the 5th rounder we swapped for a 6th rounder to move in to the first round for Legette to make sure we got the WR we wanted and secured the fifth year option. Combining the two we really messed up. Btw, this is sarcasm if that wasn’t clear.
