Inglourious Basterds

Doggedly entertaining Tarantino opus guaranteed to make you hate yourself in the morning. The loopy story revolves an effort to gather all of the big wigs in the Nazi Party -- including Hitler -- into a theater in occupied Paris for the premiere of a propaganda epic and burning the place down around them. Brad Pitt seems to be doing a bad imitation of someone, but the other performances, especially Christoph Waltz' turn as a depraved opportunist, are terrific. It might not be Pulp Fiction or even Jackie Brown, but it is guilty fun on a grand scale. NOT for the squeamish!
