JISHCAND'S LABYRINTH: SO ENORMOUS... TOO LATE!

When you say Quentin Tarantino, his name simply means bloody amazing.

We've seen his Kill Bill films and I gotta say those 2 movies remain on the top of my list for being the bloodiest films ever made. It is Tarantino's signature now. After months of waiting, Inglourious Basterds has finally made its cinema release in the country. But it's really late!

Imagine this movie was shown last August in the US and the rest of the world except the Philippines. Here's the bad thing: the Blu-Ray DVD is already available in UK and Australia. Next week, it will be released in the US. Here's the WORST thing: the Dibidi copies are selling like hotcakes everywhere. Call the basterds and kill the distributors now.

FILM PREMISE: In Nazi-occupied France, where Shosanna Dreyfus witnesses the execution of her family at the hand of Nazi Colonel Hans Landa . Shosanna narrowly escapes and flees to Paris, where she forges a new identity as the owner and operator of a cinema. Elsewhere in Europe, Lieutenant Aldo Raine organizes a group of Jewish soldiers to engage in targeted acts of retribution. Known to their enemy as “The Basterds,” Raine’s squad joins German actress and undercover agent Bridget Von Hammersmark on a mission to take down the leaders of The Third Reich. Fates converge under a cinema marquee, where Shosanna is poised to carry out a revenge plan of her own...

The film is divided into 5 parts. Unfortunately, some parts are good and some parts are a little bad.

There are only few fights actually and it is a little surprising for a Tarantino film. Though his loquacious script may daunt some blood-hungry fans, for me I find the script as compelling as ever.

The conversation at the outset may give you heart attack. It is a little intense I may say. Each specific part of the film is full of first-rate performances and the kind of talking-with-thrill that Tarantino fans have come to love. The quandary, however, is that there's plainly too much of it.

The film essentially offers lengthy, straggly speeches leading up to explosion of actions, which is all well and enjoyable. If you're expecting tons of WWII action, well just don't anticipate. There are even more things in the film, and lots of characters to care too. Just be patient to every words they're saying. Some are really hard to understand! Especially Aldo's southern accent.

The best thing about Inglourious Basterds is Tarantino's filmmaking

All of his shots are simply beautiful. Every frame is succulent to the eyes.

The goriness is still gut-wrenching but not so “Kill Billicious” this time. Tarantino's camera moves so swiftly and I really love how the scene shifts.

The gunfights are still stylish as usual. And watch out for that explosive finale!

Tarantino's team also does a glorifying job on cinematography, production design and of course that inspiring music. Tarantino is truly a glorious auteur.

Tarantino actually concentrates on getting nuanced performances from his cast. The film offers some of the best and most slashing acting ensemble. Christoph Waltz who plays Col. Landa stands amongst the best of Tarantino's antagonists

. His character is inhumane, pleasing, funny and caitiff. His performance may get an Oscar nod. We will hate him here but his acting is worth clapping for. Hands down to this Austrian actor! Brad Pitt is just cool to watch.

His terrifying and hilarious performance is astonishingly fun. I think his accent here is really vexatious but enjoy it somehow. The acting in broad is pretty superb, with strong performances from Melanie Laurent as Shosanna , Daniel Bruhl , Michael Fassbender and surprisingly Diane Kruger.

Inglourious Basterds is one of the best films I've seen this year.

But it is really late and fnck!ng limited! The film is exclusively being shown in Robinsons Movieworld . Of course the film is obviously R-18 and it was approved without cuts.

I actually love the Restricted rating. I just don't want a bloodless R-13 rating and SM Cinema will make money from an incomplete masterpiece like this. No way!

I'm fuming because the distribution is fnck!ng late! I'm also mad the Dibidis are already luculent.
