Well, I just got back from seeing Inglourious Basterds a second time (with my parents of all people!) and as I hoped and fully expected, I liked it even more the second time around. The best thing about Tarantino's movies is their rewatchability; knowing what comes next only builds the anticipation, and I actually want to marry and have children with that strudel scene.
That being said, I stand by my previous criticisms. The violence in the last chapter felt very crude, and the final minute of the movie still pisses me off. Perhaps in time I too will come to believe that the movie is Quentin Tarantino's "masterpiece", but quite frankly, he still shouldn't say it!
Even so, that cannot detract from what is undoubtedly one of the best movies of the year. If I can score free tickets, I might just see it a third time theatrically (it's not like I was going to study anyway)
