It definitely has its momentsbut it's a little over-indulgent. He needs someone to edit him and keep him in check, I think.
Great use of Bowie, though, I agree - like 'Steve Zissou'! :)

The Life Aquatic is fucking brilliant,and I love Wes Anderson. I think Inglorious felt a lot like a Wes Anderson film in fact.

Anderson is fantastic - especially 'The Life Aquatic'...but I wish Tarantino would return to the leaner, tauter style he used to have. The last great movie he made was 'Jackie Brown', when I think about it...

haha!This is turning into 'Newsnight Review'.
I love Elmore Leonard, and I thought it was the best attempt to film one of his books I've seen. So there.

Inglorious may not be the best film of all time,but I have never seen a film before where I am so heftily involved whilst watching. And the shooting of that opening scene/20 minutes is fucking sublime! It felt like an impressionist painting! Simply phenomenal!
