The worst Tarantino movie IMO, havent seen Once upon a time in hollywood, and not going to either.Hate it when people take real people, and twist history with something that never happened. that's why i don't like Inglorious bastards either.

Pulp Fiction, Reservoir dogs, Django unchained, Hateful eight are my favorite Tarantino movies

Your choice but... I never knew about the "history" that Once Upon a Time in Hollywood takes from. I was more interested on the other characters and story going on instead and still it was a great movie.

Which is why it’s ridiculous. There was literally zero reason to include it other than shock value.

Just said basically the same thing. Involving Hitler at the end completely undercuts a beautifully written villain in Hans Landa. Landa carried the movie and the alternate history took me out of it when it wasn’t needed.

But thats what the movie is about? Its about how cinema can influence the perception of reality. The nazis used cinema as propaganda. Tarantino takes away power of nazis by showing that they are just a bunch of assholes and not some unimaginable monsters. There's a reason why everything in basterds is about film.

Yes and all of that was accomplished without killing Hitler.

No. Killing hitler in a ridiculous way is a symbolic fuck you to all fascists of the past, present and the future.
