A Gratuitous but Well Done Moviework
9 September 2009
Warning: Spoilers
Gripping, superbly done - but with a close to nil stake... The script is disorganized, linear, messy, fragmented (ATTENTION! Not in the GOOD sense! It's a well-known thing that Tarantino couldn't care the less of the rules, and usually this dislodged structure works ("Pulp Fiction" does remain a masterpiece), but here, unfortunately, it serves no purpose, except a useless piece of acrobatics with history.

However, what remains is the masterful direction and shooting - and, of course, the genius acting of Christoph Waltz, an incredible revelation! His way of pronouncing around the words is so savory, that I still enjoy repeating with relish some of his lines - my favorite being: "J'ai oublié de commander la crèèème..." Absolutely splendid!
