Synopsis |
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 soon cross paths with a French-Jewish teenage girl who runs a movie theater in Paris which is targeted by the soldiers. |

 Reviewer: Audiophile Audition | Overall  |
Date Reviewed: 17 December 2009 | The super-widescreen cinematography looks terrific in the Blu-ray transfer, and the lossless DTS surround conveys a good feeling of the different environments as well as shaking one up with the gunshots and explosions. (Read Full Review)

 Reviewer: DoBlu.com | Movie | HD Video  | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 16 December 2009 | Inglorious Basterds is uncomfortable to watch, not because of a few gory scenes, but because of its unpredictability. Each chapter is increasingly intense as Tarantino builds his story, all of it coming back to the opening scene. One mistake on the part of the Nazi’s self-proclaimed best detective sets the stage for a flawlessly constructed story, one crafted from dialogue only Quentin Tarantino could write.

 Reviewer: DVD Verdict | Overall | Movie | HD Video  | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 15 December 2009 | Inglourious Basterds may be the ultimate statement on war films and what they can do for an audience. With a heady blend of brilliant characters, seriocomic revenge, and remarkably affecting violence, Tarantino has crafted a film that deserves multiple viewings and this fantastic Blu-ray release will keep fans occupied with the excellent audiovisual presentation and informative extras. Hopefully the film's detractors will give it another look on home video and grow to appreciate what may be Tarantino's masterpiece. (Read Full Review)

 Reviewer: The HD Room | Overall | Movie | HD Video | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 14 December 2009 | The trademark over-the-top violence and spoof on history may not be for everyone's tastes, but it more than deserves to be given the benefit of the doubt. (Read Full Review)

Date Reviewed: 14 December 2009 | It is a relatively small little picture, but it is impressive none-the-less on Blu-ray. (Read Full Review)

 Reviewer: DVD Talk | Overall | Movie | HD Video | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 12 December 2009 | In this ultimate movie fantasy, Basterds is the first time that Nazi Germany has been conquered by subversive filmmaking, and the power of editing. A projection changeover becomes a major suspense device. Movie film of the 1940s is itself explosive by nature, as Tarantino explains in another expositional sidebar. Forget 3D: the movie screen reaches out to strike back at Evil in a wish-fulfillment demonstration of the power of pure Cinema. Critics lament that liberal moviemaking is rarely effective as a tool of social change, but Mlle Dreyfus' "experimental" filmmaking effort really makes its point ... with a few bombs included in the overall presentation, of course. Tarantino has long been accused of playing infantile movie games, but this picture assembles his eclectic pulp scraps into a coherent and original thesis -- Film conquers Evil. (Read Full Review)

 Reviewer: Big Picture Big Sound | Overall | Movie | HD Video | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 8 December 2009 | The Inglorious Bastards was never a runaway mainstream hit, so few moviegoers will likely be disappointed or even confused by these new Inglourious Basterds. Quentin Tarantino's distinctive take on Nazis is a movie all its own, one that no World War II film buff should miss. (Read Full Review)

 Reviewer: High-Def Digest | Overall | Movie | HD Video | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 7 December 2009 | With just a couple more weeks left in the year, Universal has delivered one of the year's best Blu-ray discs. Quentin Tarantino's orgiastic World War II masterpiece is perfect for repeated home viewing, and with reference-quality audio and video, plus a whole host of engaging bonus features (many of them in high definition), this is a genuinely great package for a genuinely great movie. Must Own. (Read Full Review)

 Reviewer: Blu-ray.com | Overall | Movie | HD Video | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 3 December 2009 | Inglourious Basterds must be seen to be understood. Trailers, word of mouth, and reviews (yes, even this one) cannot possibly convey the intricacies of its script, the prowess of its performers, or the harrowing atmosphere of its unforgettable scenes. I cannot express how spectacular it all is. To my relief, Universal has treated Tarantino's masterpiece with the utmost care. While its supplemental package leaves something to be desired, its video transfer is a faithful, filmic stunner and its DTS-HD Master Audio track is a rousing, enveloping achievement. Not everyone will adore Tarantino's latest as much as I did, it can be quite divisive in its departure from convention, but it comes with my highest recommendation. (Read Full Review)

 Reviewer: High Def Disc News | Movie | HD Video | HD Audio |
Date Reviewed: 2 December 2009 | “Inglourious Bastards” is yet another excellent film from Quentin Tarantino and definitely one of his finest to-date. As I left the theater, I was blown away by how Tarantino combined all these aforementioned elements. There really isn’t any sequence that feels overly long, makes us look at our watch or really feels that it shouldn’t be left on the cutting room floor. If you haven’t seen this one yet, definitely do. The film truly is as great as everyone has said it is. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! (Read Full Review)
