Inglourious Basterds is a Quentin Tarantino film based upon the true facts of WW2 or otherwise known as the Holocaust.
The movie starts in Nazi occupied France with a French-German family hiding Jews. When the Nazis kill the hidden family one brave 18 year old gets away. Her name is Shosanna.. After that, they show a few years later when Shosanna has changed her name and now owns her own cinema. When German war hero Frederick Zoller falls for Shosanna she is informed that he wants to have the showing of his documentary at her cinema. At the showing there will be lots of high up Nazis including Hitler. She plans to burn the cinema down, on the day of the premiere.
When Shosanna is planning this master plan there are some other people who have the same motives, they are called "The Basterds". The basterd are an American-Jewish group of Nazi killers. They follow the tactics of a certain native group. As they hear about this premiere without the knowledge of Shosanna's plan they create their own plan to assassin the nazis.
I will not tell you the ending but it is time to tell you my opinion on this film. I found this film amazing, brilliant if I may add. It was produced so well! Quentin Tarantino is known for his graphic films and this was one of them but the graphicness of the production just added onto the drama. Add the theme of the film plus the great production, it equals awesomeness!!! Mélanie Laurent, a French actress, played Shosanna and she was great, she played so well, it was very emotional! The role of LT, Aldo Raine was played by Brad Pitt and even though this was a dramatic movie he was very funny. In very graphic scenes he would be so calm and collective. Simply brilliant!
Overall I loved this film. It was made so brilliantly, I cannot believe it! I very much recommend this film, but again it is very graphic so be warned. Also most of this film is in french and german but obviously there is english subtitles. There are parts in english but not very many. I give this movie an A! As always I have to go but I'll be back
