Loved it.
People who don't like Tarantino may not like it, but I thought it was very well-paced and...delicious may be the right word.
The way he builds up suspense is perfect.
I have to complain a little about Brad Pitt. I usually rag on the guy, but I have good reason since he doesn't make a great leading star. Good second man, for sure. In this one I honestly think he was the weakest out of the other actors. It was the accent and the over-acting. At times it gave the audience some humour, but most of the time it didn't work. But the rest of the actors were great, so my opinion doesn't mean he's horrible. Just...out of place.
As usual, I have to mention Tarantino's female characters and how they're in their own category.
One other thing I had a problem with (let's skip all the moral talk) was that there was barely any development of some of the main characters. Landa was amazing and given more air-time, for sure, but even Aldo didn't seem to "feel" anything about people dying around him. I think that's why I loved the opening scene and the look of terror on the French man's face (the one who had the three daughters).
