I kind of want to see it, but not because of the trailers. All they do is make it look like an ultra-violent movie about trying to kill Hitler. But knowing Tarantino, there's a lot more to the story than that.
And right you are. I just finished watching (Thanks to drunk projectionists, I was at the theater all night. Long story).
This movie kicks ass. Alot of ass. So far this is the best thing I've seen all year, and while the violent parts play a big part in this (And they are
quite violent), there is even more fun to be had in the rest of the movie. Don't be mistaken, there is some brutality to be had, but that's only about 25% of the movie. The rest is a potent mixture of suspense, intrigue, and comedy. Also, be prepared to read alot. Although there is some english spoken, there is more german and french to be had, but seeing as this is a site for anime enthusiasts, I don't think reading will be a problem for anyone.
Although Brad Pitt's character seems a bit cheesy at first (...and throughout), he actually does a decent job. Probably responsible for alot of the humor. BJ Novak plays his part well, even if he could have used more screentime. There's a brief moment with a heavily make-uped Mike Myers. It's tolerable! I really can't say anymore without giving stuff away. There was 6 of us watching, 2 girls....they didn't much seem to care for it, but we had a blast. 4.5/5 Stars.
