New Tarantino

[Battle.Angel]

Coming out in the US today/tomorrow, whereever you are..
Man, I'm so damn tired of Nazi stories!! (Me, a German! Because 90% of our history classes are about how much we fucked up 80 years ago.) Every time a German movie is nominated as a foreign language motion picture at the oscar it's another Nazi movie! No kidding!
Plus.. Brad Pitt.. WTF? But still, I have high expectations! A Tarantino has never disappointed me yet. Post here if you saw the movie!

I think it'll be good. It looks good, at least. I haven't seen every Tarantino movie but all that I've seen has been impressive.

Brad Pitt.. WTF?

Will be better than Tom Cruise in Valkyrie. Brad Pitt has always been a better actor than Mr. Faggot Scientologist, in my eyes.

 

[neal]

yeh i'll probably go see it next week or something. love tarantino movies and who doesnt love nazis and hitler ranting and raving?!

Agreed.

I don't like Tarantino too much, and so I probably won't see this anyways, but I feel like commenting on the fact that this has garnered some pretty split reviews, and that's especially interesting because they seem to fall along national lines.

I think the Germans and the Americans like it (generally) and the British hate it. The Guardian review is particularly vitriolic.

I don't really care about Cruise's bizarre behavior or beliefs. My only interest in actors is their professional output, and at he end of the day, Tom Cruise excels at his craft.

 

[derek]

I thought he was pretty good in Valkyrie.

 

[Super Mahrio]

Brad Pitt tends to do well when casted in roles like that.
Anyway i want to see it really bad.

Alright. I just came back from watching the first show of the day at 12pm, cause I was bored out of my mind at home. It was great. Very different for a Tarantino flick with very interesting cinematography and just the right mix between good old brutal Tarantino gore and compelling dialogue. This wasn't bastardized by american laziness, so be prepared to hear french and german for about 60-70% of the movie and read subtitles. Brad Pitt was alright, but the actor who took the movie was the SS commander in charge of the investigation. The guy is basically a flawless quadlingual and is just plain fucking awesome. I've seen him somewhere, but I don't know where. Mike Myers was there for all but 5 minutes, and those were useless. Diane Kruger is stunning as always, and her speaking german almost throughout her entire part was pure buttsecks to my ears. If you're a smoker like myself, be prepared to to cringe and twist throughout the entire two and a half hours because there's a fuckton of smoking by many good looking people in very fashionable and dramatic ways. That's about it. Overall, I dug it, and the bottom line is that it's Tarantino, so you really can't go wrong with that guy from my experience.

Planning on seeing this after I see District 9.

 

[Swabs]

I'm going to come in here with a pretty radical viewpoint... I want to see this movie because it looks fun.

 

[DreamNeonBlack]

Very good movie and excellent filmmaking! I enjoyed it quite a bit. Pitt was funny as hell, mainly due to his accent(s), so anything he said was silly and funny.

 

[Dead Winter]

That's because the Germans have gotten over themselves already.

 

[Morganna]

Ack, don't get to see movies until they are on DVD half the time. I will say that Brad Pitt is looking mighty fine with that beard on Real Time last week. Kind of makes me give a second look after all these years. :>

English, German, French.. good, that are about all the languages I understand a least a little...

Just came home from the theater.. I gotta sleep on this. But I liked it... funny and brutal.

straight up. as self-indulgent and pompous a filmmaker as tarantino is, he has a good command of scope and pacing and he gives his actors a LOT to work with. and let's face it, watching the nazis get stomped never gets old.

 

[rebirth]

total bullshit crap trailer ...done to death, playing it safe....dirty dozen rippoff/

nothing refreshing at all.

That was Eli Roth (the undercover cop who gets gut-shot in Reservoir Dogs, and the bellhop from Four Rooms). I knew he was supposed to be in the movie, but it was about halfway over before I figured out that he was playing the SS guy (he's got some prosthetic nose or something so he doesn't look quite like his normal self). He and Brad Pitt were both great in this movie.

Two thumbs up.

 

[Chromatose]

Isn't Eli Roth the guy who made Hostel and Tim Roth is the actor in those movies?

I don't know anything about this movie so I'm not saying which is which but just pointing it out.
