On The QT

Harvey Weinstein presented some footage of Quentin Tarantino's latest, Django Unchained, at Cannes.  Here's what Guardian writer Peter Bradshaw thought:

The footage looks good – of course it would – but it's impossible to tell what the movie is going to be like. It could be brilliant, like Kill Bill, or underwhelming like Inglourious Basterds. Well, the chains come off at Christmas and we'll see then.

Since I thought Inglourious Basterds was perhaps Tarantino's best since Pulp Fiction, while the Kill Bill films were flashy but empty--the first time in his work little or no humanity shone through--I guess I know whose review to avoid when the film comes out.
