Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Inglourious Basterds (2009)

All four of us (me, hubby, two teens) saw this together and I liked it more than than they did -- but that's not saying much.

In my opinion, all of the scenes were necessary, but they were UNnecessarily long. Every conversation seemed to last a few dozen sentences past usefulness, which brought me to the "get ON with it!" frustration point several times. My jaw hurt a bit by the end of the film because of my constant clenching.

As for the the other three: Gary hated the revisionism, younger son wanted his three hours back, and older son was surprised I found it even tolerable.
