Just got back and I have to say its great. I love all QT films but there will be near the top. Before I can put it on top I'll have to rewards it a few times more. The acting was amazing.

I absolutely loved this movie. Can't pick out one thing I didn't like. Setting, acting, story, etc... One of Tarantino's best films.

Great movie.

Of his more recent movies, I think I am still more partial to "Inglorious Basterds" though. That's no slight. IB is probably in my top 5

Christoph Waltz and Leonardo DiCaprio steal the show. It's Jamie Fox's movie but these guys carry the movie for the last hour. Samuel L. Jackson was hilarious as always as 'Stephen' too

Waltz stole the entire show IMO

I'm not, the thought of a chance of being in the same room with you is enough to not go yesterday. Doubt I could handle the stench of smugness coming from you.

I might be the only person in the world that thinks Inglorious Basterds was completely overrated. I got very bored with it. I really thought that Django would drag ass, but it kept me interested the entire time.

Joe Thomas isn't as good as everyone says he is.

I think IG would have been better as the mini series he originally wanted to do. SMH at who ever talked him out of that. Would have meant more time with the basterds. Still loved the film though.

Lot of dialogue and build-up. Not for everybody

You went to Marietta. We wouldn't expect you to comprehend and appreciate the dialogue.

your fault. Boom.

Btw, the shear amount of blood with every gunshot was pretty hilarious in Django.

IG would have been better if the line between fantasy and reality would have been more grey, but he crossed it by having the Jewish woman "meet" Goebbels and Hitler in the theater. I enjoyed it, very good, but not great like PF.

*edit to not spolier.

Nope, I'm in the same boat. I usually dig dialogue and build up but I found a lot of the dialogue boring. I also thought Pitt and crew would be in it more. I didn't care for it at all the first time I watched it mainly because I was at the drive in and couldn't read the subtitles but I watched it again at home and just thought it was alright.
