Vile 5 out of 100
Just sickening gratuitous violence dressed up as unfunny comedy to try and make it palatable, turned it off after hearing the horrifiic noise of a man's skull being smashed in, avoid at all costs.

Harsh but it kept my interest 25 out of 100
Compared to a lot of other films on offer, this kept my interest for the entire film. Might have been something to do with Brad Pitt............anyways better than I expected.

Try Hard with a Vengeance 10 out of 100
I admit, I might have had high expectations. I thought it would be haphazardly funny, maybe haphazardly violent. The only thing I failed to predict was it's predictability. It's like some sort of badly disguised comic book parodying war films and war stereotypes. I'm not even sure it did it self consciously. The only thing I enjoyed was the fact that every character in the thing was a tragic idiot. I really didn't give a ... what happened to any of them. This is also the film that finally

You need to suspend belief for the duration of the movie but absolutely brilliant. Thoroughly enjoyable movie. Fast paced action.

Wow and yuk all at once 20 out of 100
Is this movie really based on a true story??? If it is, it illustrates the huge change in warfare we have today, image releasing a bunch of cold blooded homicidal maniacs to reek havoc in a war zone. I suppose, if the concept of mind and heart was secondary to sheer terror of complete war it might happen. I just could help thinking about the reverse rolls; the enemy sends to England or the United States a group such as these Inglorious Bastards to raise holly hell. This is a little shocking,

Basterdly good 40 out of 100
Tarantino wins the war and takes on Adolf. Not all that historically accurate, but a very good story. You could watch this for Christoph Waltz alone. He blows everyone else away. Evil has never been so creepy.

Sinister! As much of a creep the SS guy is, you have to admire the acting. Exceptional.

Hilarious 40 out of 100
Typical Tarantino. I thought it was very witty and very funny in parts. Brad Pitts 'Italian' accent was hysterical.

Inglorious Basterds 40 out of 100
Seriously funny if you realise that it is a complete historical piss take. I laughed from start to finish although some scenes are a bit gorey but you get over it.

Glorious 40 out of 100
Some violent excesses to be expected but not too bad overall. Beautifully shot, SS chap was just superb - deserved the oscar. I could have watched him reading the phone book!

A good watch 35 out of 100
I thought the film was really good, in terms of the acting, storyline, pace etc. - just a bit gorey in a lot of parts, hence I speant a lot of time with my hands over my face. Good one though

Entertaining but overly long 35 out of 100
This is an entertainin movie, but they try and fit too many characters into one film. If they only concentrated on one of the character arts i think it would have been much better

Irreverent but enjoyable 35 out of 100
If 10 is the highest score, I have given this film a 7. This is not a film to be taken seriously and if you can tale it with a grain of salt, the violence and historical content, can be put to one side and carry on with the humour with which I believe it was intended. It has a very disposable attitude to life and makes a mockery of convention. For someone who does not like violence, I could take this without offence. Beautifully redicilous and a fair reflection of its Irreverent Title. Knowing

Inglourious Basterds 30 out of 100
The opening scenes are fantastic but the rest of the film turned into a farce in my opinion. I was disappointed but maybe I expected too much from Tarantino.

Great story, not the perfect Tarantino movie tho 30 out of 100
I loved the movie but the subtitles were ridiculously fast. Made the story hard to follow at times but mostly made it frustrating to watch.

I expected something different 20 out of 100
... but in the end I was impressed. It was a lot funnier than I was expecting and the acting was great particularily Christoph Waltz (playing Hans Landa). Definitely Oscar worthy.

Alright.. 30 out of 100
OK at best. I was expecting great things from this film and although there were some funny and exciting moments it just didnt live up to the hype for me. Give me Pulp Fiction anyday!

Excellent 40 out of 100
I was seriously worried about this one after the all time low of Deathproof but this was a real return to form. Up there with the very best Tarantino movies.

Very Enjoyable 40 out of 100
Not what I was expecting from a taratino film. But this is what makes the film unique. Very enjoyable from start to finish with some comical moments. Brad pitt delivers as always, but its the "newcomers" that steal the show particulary the french lady cinema owner and the SS officer. The film has many tense moments which keep you at the end of your seat. My only quibble is the ending, which was a bit ott, but hey! what do ya expect-Its a taratino film!

Return to form for Tarantino 45 out of 100
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It's a bit brutal and gory in parts but that's what you expect from the man. Brad Pitt was very funny putting on an Italian accent, but the star of the show is most definitely Christoph Waltz as the SS Colonel. Absolutely brilliant character. Some memorable scenes including the Bar fiasco and the colonel's first interrogation of the French farmer. Highly recommended.

hmmmm 15 out of 100
Not sure I liked this,not a fan of either Brad Pitt but have to say his southern accent is even more annoying than his Irish accent.He's too pretty for this role in my opinion. Not a bad story,a little predictable and no characters that one could really get behind.Actually caught myself hoping the Germans would win?? limped to a grumbling end rather than the bang I think was intended,not worth the hype
