not quite what i expected more of a spike lee movie than tarrentino. very talky talky and not much action.or what you would expect from tarentino. Leonardo de caprio was good but he was hardly in it much. chrispther waltz was brilliant . ok movie/good but overated it seems.
why didn't they just offer the cash for the girl and save a lot of hassle. they had the money.. bit of a silly idear that..

Quentin Tarantino comes through in 2012, making one of the best movies of the year. The choice for actors and actresses were spot on, and the acting and dialog was top notch. Samuel L. Jackson makes a familiar appearance in Tarantino's film, adding the enjoyment even more. I'm not a fan of westerns, but Tarantino proves I can love them if they are made well. And this one sure was. It's a movie I look forward to watching again as soon at it comes out on DVD. If you liked any of Tarantino's past films, this one won't disappoint. |

2012's best movie. Tarantino knocks it out of the park again and probably his best movie since Kill Bill or Pulp Fiction. Well shot, acted, and directed. A great story sets this movie apart. Also, Tarantino is wise with his words, getting out of the way of his own dialogue. Western and Action fans should love this one. |

Great Film, Definitely! |
|
A freed slave, Django (Jaime Foxx), with a German Bounty hunter, Dr. Schultz (Christoph Waltz), is set to rescue his wife from the heartless owner plantation, Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio).
***
This movie was great on its entirety. Tarantino's take on this Western material was both entertaining and smart at the same time. The actors delivered well with special mention to Christoph Waltz. The story, the material itself was brilliant, it was an excellent job, indeed.
Maybe, I just do not like how bloody it was. The comedy feel plus the drama is fine. BUT, it was a great confusion for me I should feel something that is light for the comedy or should I take it seriously that it is a relevant matter for a film to present. It's just that I was not sure if I have to take in this fil... |

One Hell of a Movie |
|
I'm sure to go to hell for watching this movie. Quentin Tarantino is my least favorite director, but I love movies and force my husband to watch over a hundred movies per year. He loves Tarantino, so I swallow my disgust and watch movies like Django Unchained and Kill Bill and all the rest of his collection. Maybe I'm warming up to the director because I didn't think it was that bad. It was funny, dark, bloody, and it had a good ending...when it finally did end. Django becomes unchained quite a few times, so it was hard for me to feel the ending until the final showdown. Christoph Waltz was more than perfect in this movie. I was having a hard time shedding my opinion of the actor after Water for Elephants, but after the second scene in Django, I was loving this character for his abili... |

Bloody Awesome…the most fun I’ve had! |
|
Calvin Candie: Your boss looks a little green around the gills.
Django: He just ain't used to seein' a man ripped apart by dogs is all.
Calvin Candie: But you are used to it?
Django: I'm just a little more used to Americans than he is.
Quentin Tarantino finally unleashes his "southern" by paying great homage to spaghetti westerns of yesterday. Django is littered with gorgeous shots and dialogues as usual in every film of Tarantino were outrageous and gore was at its peak with a wonderful soundtrack from Ennio Morricone, John Legend and James Brown/2Pac duet.
Jamie Foxx is spectacular as the titular hero and we watch his transition, from enslaved helpless negro to a shrewd and sharp shooting hero determined to buy his wife back from a ruthless and sadistic man; Calvin Candie (... |

Good to know - I'll be watching this on Sunday and my hopes are high due to the many nominations and great opening numbers for the film. For a change, I don't think I'm going to be disappointed with this one. |

Just found out Jonah Hill is going to have a small part. I love when Tarantino casts out-of-the-ordinary people for movies like this. I am very excited to see what he does with Hill.
Adam Sandler was supposed to be the 'Bear Jew' in the bastards, which sadly didn't happen. This will hopefully be just as insane of an idea. |

I have been waiting for this movie since I heard of it two years ago. This is going to be another instant classic that will hopefully rival that of 'Inglourious Basterds'. The cast is going to be phenomenal. I am expecting the word out of this one, thankfully Tarantino has not let me down on anything yet. |
