The Times of London had this to say of Tarantino's latest remake, which is set to star Brad Pitt: "It is not just the scalping, or the carving of swastikas in foreheads, or the shooting of a German officer's testicles, or the slow strangling scene - all shown with Tarantino's customary love of detail - that is likely to upset the (German) nation and its critics. It is the whole idea of turning the Second World War into a comic-book adventure in which not a single German character has redeeming value." One for the rainbow family then, Brad?
