Inglourious Basterds

**Spoiler Alert**
Tarantino's long-winded re-imagination of World War II events that lead up to the successful assassination of Hitler and the end of the War.  If only things were that easy.  Stylistically it's the same as every other movie he's done in the past so the movie is peppered with dialogues some witty some not and the movie is structured in chapters.  Nothing new.  Pitt and Waltz play interesting and psychotic adversaries.  Though, in the end Pitt's character Aldo Raine wins, it's Waltz's character Han Landa that wins the heart of the audience.  Pitt's supposedly southern accent at times sound more Sling Blade than just southern.  Good but mildly retarded just like the rest of the movie.

Civil War (2024)

This is basically a Dorothy yellow brick road kind of story.  Also, something to do with the new replaces the old, the circle of life thing....
