Fight Club

Inglourious Basterds
Inglorious Basterds is a Quentin Tarantino movie, which basically means that critics and viewers already have a positive opinion of it before watching. There is a lot of societal pressure to rate Tarantino movies highly, but at the end of the day, critics and viewers had mixed opinions about this one. The public loved it, but a lot of critics bashed the movie for inaccurately depicting historic atrocities for comedic purposes. We're not saying that it's a bad movie, we're just saying that it's overhyped.
