In Nazi-occupied France during World War II, a group of Jewish-American soldiers known as "The Basterds" are chosen specifically to spread fear throughout the Third Reich by scalping and brutally killing Nazis. The Basterds, lead by Lt. Aldo Raine soon cross paths with a French-Jewish teenage girl who runs a movie theater in Paris which is targeted by the soldiers.

I wanted to but couldn't!
A different way of telling a story
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Anyone who rates this movie on the low end is doing it out of self admiration because they think they're being cool for not liking this movie.yes, the movie is in an alternate universe, that doesn't mean it is bad.yes, there are lots of long conversations, but they are far from boring. the difference between what is said and what the characters know is where this film excels. especially on the part of waltz.all of the acting is on par. the angles and shots throughout the film? amazing.i guarantee you will enjoy this movie if you like good films.
This movie is really good and I like the concept of it. There's good action scenes with a lot of blood a violence. The only problem I have with the movie is 70% of the movie is non-stop talking so if you don't like that kinda stuff, this movie is not for you.
In Nazi-occupied France during World War II, a plan to assassinate Nazi leaders by a group of Jewish U.S. soldiers coincides with a theatre owner's vengeful plans for the same. It does look like good work has been put on creating the enviroment around 'Inglourious Basterds' unfortunately the same can't be said about the script. The perfomances were good for the most part especially Waltz but there were also some disappointing one's from Brad Pitt mostly, the film is very long and it drags alot in certain areas, the story was kind of interesting but rather disappointing considering the era that it takes place. To be honest i would advice to watch 'Valkyrie' since it's a better WWII movie in everything. (5/10)
There are no heroes in this alternate-history WWII tale, a story in which the protagonists are as brutal and cruel as the Nazis they intend to destroy. 'Inglourious Basterds (2009)' manages to last two-and-a-half hours despite only containing a handful of real scenes and when it works, it really works. The dancing dialogue draws tension from the simplest of situations, but it can lend to a generally slower feeling earlier on. Luckily, that subsides quickly so, despite the fact that there isn't an incredible amount of substance - though, more than in Tarantino's previous two attempts, 'Kill Bill (2003-2004)' and 'Death Proof (2007)', it is still an entertaining experience overall. 7/10
