I heard the storyline described in a radio review at the weekend and immediately thought of that succession of Roger Moore films from the 70s where, when he wasn't James Bond, he was a "real" army soldier shooting hundreds of bad men in every film usually with the same cast of goodies and baddies in each film - about as believeable as Alan Carr playing the lead role in a Steven Segal film.
Tarantino & Guy Ritchie are two of the most over-rated film producers/directors of all time, both are lucky to have hit on a cheap and popular format early in their career and now know nothing else.
Pulp celluloid for young boys who don't want to think too hard.

I liked Pulp Fiction a lot and most of Tarantino other stuff is OK, not too fussed about Ritchie's stuff but it's watchable.
To say they are lucky and one trick ponies sounds a bit bitter to me, how many genres of music did Bob Dylan/The Stones/The Beatles cover?, anyone can spot a Santana song from the first 3 chords but it doesn't mean they are not the very best at what they do.
For the record here is someone who agrees with You & G1 and just about the only critic that doesn't think the sun shines out of Tarantinos @rse.

| I'm not a massive Tarantino fan really, Pulp Fiction is the most over rated piece of garbage in cinema history IMO.
However I thought IB was fantastic, and certainly the best film this year. That being said, I thought Brad Pitt was awful in it on reflection. His part was over acted. The Jew Hunter steals the show in this one.

| Quote G1="G1"Ahem, serious storyline?
The silly, violent storyline was set in a serious period of history but there was nothing serious about the story line.
The crazy thing is, I've heard that there was actually a squadron of British soldiers with a large Jewish contingent who did perform atrocities on Nazi soldiers but they were disbanded and it was hushed up.
Was standard tarantino fare and a decent flick but I am unsurprised something so pop culture, style-ized and lacking in substance floated Lawrences boat.
Much as I liked it Mr tarantino is a bit of a one trick pony isn't he?'"
So the fact that the story opens with nazis shooting a Jewish family, and then moves onto one of the family members trying to get revenge on the said soldier is not serious??

The dark humour adds to the storyline aswel I think.

Do you think this film portrays the subject matter seriously?
