Agreed. Tension is the word for the farmhouse and tavern scenes. Both are the highlights of the movie for me (that and any scene with Waltz).

The movie for me worked best as a serious espionage thriller, but I think Tarantino is just too in love with grindhouse cinema. His camera work, blocking, lighting, etc. are all magnificent. He has so much talent but seems to let his prurient interests constantly get in the way even when the subject matter doesn't warrant it.
