Inglorious Basterds is a good movie.

But it could be better. Tarantino does a great job of setting up the notion Nazis are evil as shite and Christopher Waltz steals the show. He's a top 10 bad guy no doubt.
But, Tarantino's style turns it into some kind of dark ironic comedy. Pitt's cartoonish accent, Waltz's character after he catches the plot just goes to Hell. Tarantino's signature editing is subdued, but still unwanted.
Flame away.

It had a few great scenes, and Waltz was great as well. I agree with you though. Overall the movie fell short of what it could have been. It was good, not great.

I disagree. It's probably the most fun I've ever had in a movie theater. From top to bottom it was classic.

I just wish we had seen more of the Basterds being Basterds

I always thought it was good in parts.

I agree with the OP's general summation on Basterds. It's also why I found Django to be a superior film.

I liked it but did not love it

I thought it was fantastic. Waltz is amazing. Pitt is hilarious.
Just watched Django, Waltz as a good guy is even better because you want to like him.

IB got better the more I watched it.
Didn't care for it so much the first viewing. Now I enjoy it. It's definitely better than Django. (which I enjoyed)

Pitts character is a caricature of how Europeans see Americans.
Stiglitz is a representation of a nazi turning their own horrific ways against the nazis.
The bear Jew is a representation of the nazis fear of the animalistic Jews being in power over Europe and exterminating all the non-Jews
Landa is a representation of how Germans saw themselves, just coldly and professionally doing their job to the best of their ability and ignoring what their job really is.

Christopher Waltz was amazing. Almost all of the scenes were epic. There weren't enough Basterds and some of them were kind of cartoonish.
And it wasn't believable that the Col would just assume he was completely safe from any harm at the end. I know the movie couldn't just let him "get away" with everything, but he wouldn't just get stupid all of the sudden.
Still a good movie.

I liked it to the point where it just turned into a sadistic revenge story. Of course I should have seen it coming earlier in the movie during the baseball bat scene.
