Bastardas Inglórias

I don't usually write reviews, but after seeing some unwarranted criticism aimed at this film, I have to wonder: does someone have it out for the director? Because this is, without a doubt, one of the most creative and beautifully made adult films in recent memory.

Blending a tongue-in-cheek reimagining of World War II with stunning cinematography and undeniable artistry, this film is far more than just erotic-it's clever, stylish, and genuinely entertaining. The way it plays with historical events, adding a layer of humor and fantasy, makes it an absolute joy to watch. The performances are top-notch, and the chemistry between the cast is electric, creating passionate and engaging scenes.

It's no surprise that this film has won multiple awards-it deserves them. The attention to detail, from the period-inspired set design to the way each scene is beautifully lit and framed, proves that this is a film made with real craftsmanship. Rather than relying on clichés, it offers something fresh, playful, and visually stunning.

For those who appreciate adult films that go beyond the usual formulas, this is a must-watch. It's bold, it's imaginative, and it never takes itself too seriously, striking the perfect balance between eroticism and entertainment. Ignore the naysayers-this film is a masterpiece in its own right.

Its authorship in question (see below), "Inglorious Bitches" is an overblown Marc Dorcel production wasting mucho femme talent on a dull, low-achievement porn exercise. It should have emerged as better entertainment.

Having seen him pontificate in a "Making of" TV short for Dorcel elsewhere, I know that Max Candy is an American director who fancies himself an "artcore" specialist following in the footsteps of Michael Ninn. The sloppy footage he's assembled here generates little interest.

Especially because Tinto Brass has pioneered this particular genre with many sex films set in the WW II era, notably "Salon Kitty". That is really the model, not the QT war fantasy that appropriated the old Italian movie's title.

Opening footage is merely a concentrated flash-forward not resolved for many reels, as Candy posits a team of European prostitutes that successfully challenge Nazi armies via sabotage and seduction. Numerous action scenes are poorly staged, and one suspects that Candy was accorded a decent-sized budget but merely frittered it away.

There's nearly as many pretty actresses on the payroll as in a stupid Bluebird Films project from this time-frame, of which Dorcel stars like Anna Polina, Eufrat and Tarra White make the best impression. Storyline is incoherent, just action + sex = killing off of running time. Photography and SPFX are sub-par, while sex is mechanically performed.

Credits unnecessarily create a conflict/issue: It's listed on screen as "Un film de Max Candy" but end credits list Alex Conte as "Realisateur", not assistant director as IMDb chose to list him. In French the correct term is "assistant realisateur" so something's fishy here.
