I can't stand Pitt, but went to see it anyway on the weekend. It's vinatge Tarantino. His late-'60s style with Mexican pop and such seems out of place in a WWII movie, but it somehow works. Even Pitt wasn't so hard to take because he sounded like a congenital idiot every time that he opened his mouth.
It's bloody, but not as bloody as Pulp Fiction or Reservoir Dogs. I heard one reviewer this morning who described it in an interesting way; "Jewish porn", due to the fact that the "hard-bitten American commandos" are almost all Jewish. I could see where that comes from, but it isn't entirely accurate either.
