I guess I'm rating it hire purely off of how specific scenes were shot and the acting in those scenes.

I didn't feel much whenever it was about the Basterds, I only enjoyed the interrogation at the farm house, they tavern scene, and the cafe/restaurant scenes.

It was shot beautiful but if I look at it in the terms you mentioned Django was put together a lot better, even if it had some scenes that I cringed at (Candyland was unsettling for me).
