inglorious basterds

iv never seen a quentin tarrantino movie in the cinema's cause the kill bills were rated R18+ for some stupid reason :( oh well

inglorious basterds was an incredible movie to watch...the story and cinematography was excellent...the acting was top notch and quentin never dissapoints us...his movies always have a "cool" aspect to them...like th fact tht one of the "bastards" has his own colourful and dramatic moving title when he is introduced into the movie! haha montage to killing spree th whole lot! haha loved it!
brad pitt leads the movie along with some already famous faces from past tarrantino movies! which is also a tribute to how he writes and casts his movies!

gun battles...hilarious monologues and unforgettable characters give this movie a spark. the intro sets th audience back into the familiar scene of movies like resevoir dogs, death proof and pulp fiction. where a slow moving but interesting scene plays out in front of us which always leads to a climatic ending to the "prologue" of his films!

a dash of gore and brutality is inflicted upon the nazi's in this movie...which is a known trait to tarrantino movies! and when used affectively continually gathers fans and critics to his side of movie making.

i was loving this movie even before the candy bar adds came on. mainly cause i worship quentin and mainly cause brad pitt was acting in the movie! :)

i hope you enjoy it too

benjamin

"The curious case of Benjamin Button" is a brilliantly filmed tale of a man born a baby, but with all the looks and disadvantages of an old man in his 80's! He ages backwards! curious in its self. Well worth making a film about! Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett lead the cast in spectacular form! story begins with daisy (Blanchett) as an old woman mere minutes away from death, her daughter (Caroline) stumbles upon a diary the Benjamin wrote for her mum when he was travelling the world! as Caroline reads the story travels back in time to when Benjamin was born, as he grows up as an old man and all the things he discovers as he grows young and not old! he gains hair, loses wrinkles and in his youth, pimples! he meets his life's love daisy at a party where his real father discarded him! his foster mother Queenie is a hilarious woman who cooks and takes care of the aged with her husband. They r most lovable characters and is a good environment for Ben to grow young in! along with his foster parents Benjamin has a lot of company in the other aged people coming and going, they tell him stories, teach him to play the piano and set his first 17 years firmly as a place he can call home!

Benjamin finds friends in the big wide world, lovers, and even manages to fight in the 2ND world war, but only on a tug boat salvaging damaged war ships. always in contact with daisy he learns to live a life of his own and to not be afraid to go after what he wants!
daisy eventually ends up in a car accident which creates a shift between them, that are later remedied in their late thirties and mid forties and fifties. They r married (unofficially) for over 30 years until Ben becomes more of a hindrance then a husband and he decides to leave his daughter in daisy's care as he becomes younger and younger!
eventually becoming a small boy with Alzheimer's who is mischievous and childish and looks like a young child but who has lived a life of a man in his late 70's. fortunately daisy meets up with him in her old age and takes care of him till the last moment of his life as a little baby in her arms!

thoroughly enjoyable movie! sad, funny, romantic, action filled and all the while a brilliant drama one for the many ages ahead to watch!
