It started very very slowly, empty seemingly so, with Enrico music filling the gap or trying to.
I thought, no not another Kill Bill, a kind of III.
But it was not it just set the whole film and that did took off.
And how.
Firmly and deeply it described the mentality and the inexorable count down of what must happen.
Tarantino is a great movie buff and he thrown out what he has seen and understood in his live as a spectator.
I can understand that some people will not like it.
I enjoy it, much of that.
Save Brad Pitt, bad.
I can only bow in front of it. It show a profound understanding of the second world war.
Not one false note I could detect.
Now it is not a film I would like to see twice.
That make for me all the difference to other great chef d´oeuvre.
Follow Ups:
'Inglorious...' had WAY too many excesses and was TOO long. It was Tarantino at his most eccentric and indulgent.

Tarantino won't make another good movie until he grows up and becomes an adult. The 'I'm a kid watching movies forever' persona he's got going for him prevents him from making a truly great film.

Or is it me.
The "bad" acting by Brad Pitt was deliberate (unless you thought the attempt at bad acting was itself bad). To me this movie was sort of an hommage, if not an outright parody, to war movies that included such bad actors as Aldo Ray, had ridiculous plot flaws (like planning to meet in such public, and obviously ill chosen places like a tavern, vide, "Where Eagles Dare"), and most outrageously -- the loose attention to historic accuracy (most notably the "slight" rewriting of history at the end of the movie).
I rewatched the Kill Bill movies and Tarrantino is an artist. I get the sense that he truly LOVES making movies and more than he loves watching them. He's a sponge, he's creative and probably the best American Director - certainly the best at what he does.
IB was a lot of fun. He takes care with the look of his films and with dialogue which is sometimes completely absurd but at the same time suits the world he creates so that you accept it. Kill Bill is Preposterous on almost every level and yet it's a lot of fun to listen to those conversations.
Take the scene in Kill Bill II with Uma and Darryl Hannah. "that's right! I killed your Master! is delivered in such a silly over the top manner that references those samurai movies to a tee. I love that goofy homage and somehow Tarrantino gets the dialogue to rise above what it is he is paying homage to.
Yes. Absolutely, the bad attempt was bad.
It is not in any way a fiction.
It is the real seen with the eyes of an artist.
A pleasure for the brain.
Save Brad Pitt, bad."
I felt the same way until I watched Pitt deliver one line in "A River Runs Through It."
"Oh, I'll never leave Montana, brother". I can't describe it, just the way he delivered a simple line, I guess.
Since then he made a believer out of me with Jesse James.
At one time I thought these younger actors couldn't, or wouldn't, stand next to a Burt Lancaster or someone of that stature. I no longer entirely feel that way.
I am speaking of IB and his role in it. He is like a foreign corps in it. He derange.
Bad.
A River...was quite a nice film.
Snatch, Burn after Reading, Benjamin Button, Babel, Jesse James, 12 Monkeys.
Not a bad résumé for a Hollywood "pretty boy."
Spoiler :
His performance as a remorseless serial killer, while difficult to watch in some parts, was spot on.
When his character dropped a rock on that car, killed a woman and took her shoes (and gave those shoes to his very young lover) Brad's portrayal of the hollow, psychopathy of Early Grayce was near perfect and I've seen rip offs of his portrayal in a couple other films.Pity that Pitt's talents have so often been wasted.

Yes, he was believable in Kalifornia, not so much in anything else I've seen.
