How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gleefully operatic revenge fantasy that remakes WWII history into a bloody, stylized reckoning. Tarantino transforms the Holocaust's horror into cathartic power, mixing casual brutality with theatrical dialogue and audacious set-pieces.

Peaked at the first scene obviously.
Christopher waltz is a highlight in this film and his character is well defined but then you have everything else and while I wouldn't say its terrible, I also don't like it as much as i used to on my first watch.

I love to see nazi get killed but when thats just your entire movie, thats cool but then also don't pretend you actually have a set of characters and story because they all suck except for one.
Cinematography is nice tho.
