Inglorious...but wait...where are they???

So here is my febel attempt at reviewing the movie (which I am sure all of you have seen) Inglorious Bastards. (and by review I just mean a few thoughts)



Aaron, Kar, Julia, and I went to go see the film yesterday at the Sommerville Theatre which is cheap and serves beer (brilliant!). I got to tell you, it started out good. Killing Nazis, kicking ass, and body mutulation are just some of the fun details that made this film enjoyable. However there were some let downs. My biggest problem with this film is the lack of presence of the 'bastards'. I found their story to be the most interesting, and yet we don't see them that much. Also the movie hops from 1941 to 1944 which in WWII time is pretty redic...and they don't give much insight to what happened to our main characters during that time. I enjoyed the story of Shoshana...but still, more bastards would have been more fun. Enough of the complaining...my favorite part of the movie was when Hitler died or should I say was murdered! Listen I realize this didn't happen in real life but wouldn't it just be a little bad ass if the Nazi reign was brought down by a bunch of badass Jews? Just saying...i liked that touch.

Ok enough of that. My day today was spent moving Aaron into Harvard. It was so nice! I really think he is going to enjoy it there. His room is a bit small, but can we just talk about the Kitchen for a minute??? It was soooooo badass! 2 huge fridges, all new appliances, water purifier etc etc My theory is that they made the kitchen so nice to distract people from the fact that the dorm looks like a Super 8 motel from 1960...which is weird because the rest of Harvard is gorgeous. Well anyway, we got him all settled in without a hitch, and he is currently mingling with the other future top lawyers of America at a Cook Out...how quaint of them. Anyway I am outtie!

  1. I agree! Don't name a movie "Inglorious Basterds" if there is only going to be about 5 seconds of them in the movie! I really liked the movie, though!

    I hope you and Aaron are having fun in Boston! (Even though you're both going to schools that have been scientifically proven to be douchey.)
