I can't really differentiate why I liked Kill Bill but hated this one. The revenge is there, the flashy violence is there, the borrowed music is there, etc. I suppose it's more because of my own changing thoughts on art, rather than something Tarantino has done. But I do think it being a historical movie, dealing with the Holocaust, World War II, Nazis, Jews, American soldiers, had a lot to do with it, as well.

I think his "talent" for writing dialogue is completely unwarranted. Royale with cheese, tipping, good milk. It's pointless. When you strip away his fanboy enthusiasm for movies, you get nothing. "Paying homage" to previous movies is the curtain of Tarantino.
