Another adolescent revenge fantasy written by Tarantino, in his underwear, with one hand stroking an erection. All his movies seem like a dull repetition of one type of scene, centered around 'I'm cooler than thou' dialogue, intermixed with endless montages featuring random greatest hits from his iPod. Stealing from the superior 'Django' worsens matters, and with no sense of pacing, he overstays his welcome on and off screen by an hour and a half. Grow up, Quentin, and go put some pants on.

Waltz/Jackson fit the Tarantino mold so wonderfully and the supporting cast nails their parts. The first 80% of the film is perfect spaghetti exploitation, ranking among the best Westerns I've ever seen, but a few scenes near the end drastically shift the pace and celebrate the violence a tad much. Still, the takeaway from this bold, bloody revenge flick is the tight script with tremendous commentary on the institution of slavery and racism; primarily in juxtaposed Dr. King/Stephen characters.

Imagine Tarantino jerking off behind the editing machine, timing his climax to perfectly coincide with a white man's blood spurting over cotton picked by black slaves. Yes, Django Unchained is yet another masturbatory masterpiece from the Samsung of 70s action flicks. Quentin borrows only the best of the Old West and makes it his "own," setting the hyper-violent results to a queer commixture of analog folk diddies and digital rap daddies that are guaranteed to make your ipod's transistors burst.

Tarantino strikes again... and again and again. The lengthy runtime is used to the fullest, and everyone involved capitalized on his stellar script, effectively transporting us into the pre-Civil War American South with a Spaghetti Western twist. Foxx manages to hold his own up against giants like DiCaprio, Waltz, and Jackson on the screen. It's brutal, it's hilarious, it's ridiculously well made, and it's driven along by an awesome soundtrack. It's entertainment in the raw. Great film.

With Inglourious Basterds having preceded it, Django's searing amoral historical revisionism is not as breathtaking -- but, in airing the U.S.'s own shameful, violent past, just as effective. When Django really takes hold is when it becomes clear that posturing, cartoonish Candie is not the true heavy but Tom-stand-in Stephen, with the final "showdown" between Django & him bringing to the fore sticky themes of race loyalty, self-preservation, & racial authenticity. In a friggin' Hollywood film.

It's not quite the electric jolt to cinema that Inglourious Basterds felt like a few years ago, but it's still a muscular slice of bloody Western fun with an explosive climax (albeit, again, not a climax on part with Basterds). I never felt the drag of its near-three-hour runtime for a second. Samuel L. Jackson steals the show and delivers his best performance since... god, since Unbreakable, maybe? Stay tuned after the credits for a brief but hilarious bonus scene.

Again, Tarantino has crafted another well-paced and well-made drama/action film. Foxx is good, Waltz is an absolute joy, and DiCaprio is really good. Not to my surprise, it's well-written and directed, with some good, dark laughs and some beautiful imagery. One of the most entertaining movies I have ever watched. If you like anything Quentin Tarantino, don't forget to watch this one.

The funnier Tarantino is the more I like him. This is basically Blazing Saddles meets Hard Boiled. I'm also pretty sure this movie was written as one big middle finger to Spike Lee, btw. In other words: "I can write whatever I want, 'cuz I have a black friend named Samuel L Jackson." Honestly, though, Tarantino doesn't really make movies for the audience. He makes movies as if he himself was the audience. The distinction is important. And he's definitely good at what he does.

Though Django Unchained is nearly 3 hours long, I never checked my watch. At no point in what was essentially a modern-day revenge and exploitation was I bored; when the incredible script, beautiful direction and powerhouse performances weren't wowing me, something, whether the soundtrack, Tarantino's unorthodox-but-excellent style choices or a brief flourish or touch from an actor kept me glued. It's a perfect storm; everyone who had a hand in the production knocked it out of the park.

Though lacking the subversive edge that made Basterds more than a fun romp through Nazi carnage, Django compensates with unflinching regard for the atrocities of slavery, cranking the violence to 11 - brutally when inflicted on slaves, gleefully when inflicted on slavers. And in addition to the usual QT hallmarks (a wicked sense of humor, reappropriation of pop culture, etc.), this sports perhaps his best ensemble performance, with Waltz, DiCaprio and Jackson all knocking it out of the park.

I put this off because it's a three hour movie from arguably the most inconsistent director. I am happy to say this is easily among his best, maybe his second best movie. Kept moving and interesting making the long length feel like it flew by. Kept true to his pulp genre feel that he carries for better or worse but just executed on so many levels. Movies like this are why I keep seeing Tarantino's stuff despite not liking half of it.

Certainly a very difficult film to review as it meshes together spaghetti westerns and exploitation films with tremendously over-the-top violence and brutally realistic portrayals of slavery. That said it also manages to have the trademark black humour Tarantino is famous for. If you're a fan of his work this will not disappoint and is certainly one of his best.

The first half hour is among the most hilarious, entertaining things Tarantino's made, and the final sequence equals or exceeds any exploitation or western film finale. The parts in the middle could have been better paced, but buoyed by DiCaprio, Waltz, and Jackson (as The Boondock's Uncle Ruckus), plus the emotional core of Django and Broomhilda, it never dragged. And although it's not quite as gleeful as Basterds, this violent slavery revenge story still ranks among Tarantino's best.

A boring, ugly mess. The overwrought script with dialogue consisting just of people calling each other nigger is a thinly veiled excuse to show random people getting killed. Quentin Tarantino makes his message very clear: if the slaves had been more like Django the 0,01 percent and less like the three guys that sit in an open cage while Django rides away, none of that slavery stuff would have happened. It's telling that the only people in the movie that Tarantino can relate to are the KKK.

While I felt it did drag a bit once or twice, this is another success for Tarantino. At times funny, at times disturbing and violent, it does both really well. Badass characters, wonderful dialogue... all staples of Tarantino movies make this a must-see Western. There are also great performances by everybody involved, inspired music choices and quite a few memorable scenes.

I was thoroughly disappointed. While Waltz and DiCaprio, and their characters are developed and acted extremely well, Django himself is a dull and boring character. I did not care for his journey whatsoever. The camerawork and acting all around was stellar, and the movie had great moments; but the excruciatingly long run time only added to the boredom I felt. I felt shame, excitement and happiness throughout, but the moment Django took center stage I felt bored. Tarantino's worst movie to date.

This film has confirmed that there has been, at least to me, some sort of a Tarantino post-Kill Bill slump. I liked more than loved Basterds. And this one I also liked but to an even lesser degree. It's still watchable with tons of clever dialogue but it feels strangely soulless, scattershot, and drawn-out, with the climax being particularly unsatisfying.

Looks great, sounds great and is great. It's probably Tarantino's best movie since "Reservoir Dogs" and "Pulp Fiction" and that's saying something because its not as if Tarantino has been making bad movies in the inbetween! It's arguably his funniest too, and he judges the humour and the dark subject matter expertly with a to-the-beat screenplay. Yep, it's pretty fucking special, and Foxx, Waltz, DiCaprio, as well as a whole host of others are all epic.

I'm kind of torn on this film. It's Tarantino, so, for the most part, it's fun, stylish, sports cool acting and ditto dialogues. Especially in the first hour and a half or so it's entertaining and a swift, empowerment-boosting, ingenious kick in the face of US-racism and slavery. But then it goes messy. A wink to the messiness of 'Django'? Maybe. But still, even Tarantino's speciality, the isolated, dialogue-driven scenes, feels less elegantly crafted than usually from his hand. Disappointed.

Simultaneously the most hilarious and the most brutal film of 2012. This revenge flick may be nearly three hours long, but it seems to absolutely fly by. Foxx, Waltz, Jackson and DiCaprio are all impressive to watch, particularly in the "dinner scene" (sure to be regarded as a QT classic). Tarantino's dialogue is pitch-perfect (as usual) directing is stylish and I particularly loved the soundtrack - ranging from spaghetti western throwbacks to classical pieces to rap. Great film.

One of the most incoherent scripts ever put together. Everything exists largely for the sake of existing and Tarantino strikes again with his typical sass. If you're a fan of his overwrought style, except a pared down version highlighted with the occasional overviolent gunfight. If you're not a fan (and I am in no way a fan) Tarantino is unquestionably getting less tolerable with every passing film.

Here, we have a hero's journey wrapped in a deplorable part of history where an institution of inequality terrorized innocent human lives. It's at once startlingly confrontational in its depiction of this unforgivable era, but as it continues, the message of the film starts to play around with your mind's understanding of the illusion of violence. It's another marvelous study in character and an assault on the American establishment, its weapon a revolver with bullets made out of film history.

Merry Christmas! Tarantino simply knows how to compose a well-made, entertaining action film; Django Unchained proves no different. It's all here: the performances, the cinematography, the music, the writing, and the exhilaration. Waltz and Foxx are utterly fantastic as the leads, a definite legendary combination. QT creates an exciting, if at times cartoonish, American South. Django is also his funniest film, a nice surprise. Go watch this because Waltz and Tarantino need to do more together.

A perfect encapsulation of a time in American history when certain people would always be under the gun. And Tarantino finds a perfect allegory for that by marrying it with Western tropes. His continued ability to use classic genre cinema references to examine culture has him exceeding what Oliver Stone did in his heyday. Most of all, the writing, editing, performances, and amazing soundtrack make this his most epic picture yet. Highly recommended.

More of the same, but i'd actually give a slight nod to this over Inglourious Basterds i guess just because Tarantino actually found a subject here that he almost takes seriously enough that he lets his guard down and even gets a little corny at times. The first hour could almost pass for Coen Brothers which in this case is actually a compliment. Still, it's at least half an hour too long and again the big over-the-top finale is terrible, but at least it's kind of in on it's own dumb joke.

Wanted to love love love it and didn't. But I'll happily take just love to the first power. Great compliment that I can pay Tarrantino is that I'm never, ever bored during his movies (well, post Jackie Brown, and I was just a dumb teenager when I saw that so I can't be trusted on that one). Even when they are this long. Fantastic dialogue as always, solid setpieces, and boy does QT extract the maximum amount of charisma from his lead actors. Doesn't hit "Basterds" heights, but no shame in that.

Should be past double what I'm giving it... but Quentin Tarantino has a bad habit of taking a good concept... then making me angry with the ensuing hypocrisy.

So in a point of pride penis-measuring contest he undoes it, throwing away his life, putting so many other lives in jeopardy. I'll run out of room here so let me just say Tarantino, when he makes a 'show', robs his work of ethical value, opting for revenge junk.

A fresh and complex take on pre-Civil War, shot through a blax/west-ploitation lens. QT uses violence as a muse; whether it's absurdly squib-happy, plain and unglamourous, or brutally real and uncomfortable, there's always a reason behind his choices. The dichotomies portrayed in the brilliant characterizations of King & Calvin show that the rule of law under slavery had brought the North and South to an inevitable impasse, while SLJ's Stephen encapsulates Django's fear of willful submission.

I had many problems with the film: the characters weren't interesting and the leads had very little chemistry; the dialogue and scenes weren't memorable--at least not for the right reasons.

I say that it's impossible to rate a film low which has Samuel L. Jackson portraying a partially lame house "nigger" serving a racist plantation owner played by Dicaprio who then goes on to explain the finer points of phrenology to us. This is Tarantino's demented cocktail of blaxploitation, spaghetti western, and a dose of Altman's McCabe and Mrs. Miller brutality. There's an honesty to the ridiculous dialogue due in part to Tarantino's ability to coax out amazing performances.

Not as good as Inglourious Basterds, but up there with Tarantinos best. Django (and Foxx) is absolutely bad ass, Waltz is even better than in Basterds, and Jackson and Dicaprio are better than I've ever seen them. Nails almost everything, but loses steam towards the end - some of the longer fight scenes could have been cut down a little. Ultimately though, the only thing that isn't practically spot on in Django is Tarantino's Aussie accent. The visuals, the music, the script; Genius. Again!

I loved it, and then I really liked it, and then I simply liked it, and then the movie WOULD NOT END. It's not that the movie was too long, it's that the the climactic gunfight was, you know, the climax of the movie. There's like 20 or 30 unneeded minutes after that scene. Ridiculous.

Goddamn. What a flick. I honestly don't know what else you can ask for in this kind of movie. You start with a really good script that, coupled with a great director that pours himself into every detail, attracts top talent to play your roles perfectly. You continue to display the near-flawless execution you've become famous for. You supplement that execution with lovely toppings (like the phenomenal soundtrack). I'll knock it down slightly for a weak female lead. Other than that, this is elite.

My main complaints are QT's awful cameo (seeing him was fine, but my god that accent), and that I didn't dig the last 15 or so minutes (which isn't shocking to me, as Tarantino can be hit or miss with his endings). Foxx and Waltz are both excellent, and DiCaprio/Jackson blew me away. As if the phenomenal acting isn't enough, the action and dialogue is as fun as it always is with Tarantino projects. Firmly places itself right in the middle of QTs filmography (in a good way).

A brutal story, both for its shining violence and its unflinching depiction of slavery and slave traders. But it's also Tarantino's most emotionally engaging and mature work, with as much emphasis placed on characters as on the blood spilling (or spraying) out of them. Foxx, Waltz, and DiCaprio are all spectacular, as usual. Goes on a tad too long towards the end, but that's forgivable. It's not as complex or as intelligent as some suggest, mind you, but it is a fun watch.

Tarantino's Western pastiche may be more thoughtful and have more tenderness than much of his work, but when the blood flows, it gushes. The violence here comes from the brutality of slavery and bounty-hunting, both of which Django (Jamie Foxx) experiences, the latter as he seeks his beloved Broomhilda (Kerry Washington). Directed with great panache, well-written, and well-acted across the board--Christoph Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio and Samuel L. Jackson are superb--it is a long but worthy tale.

Victim of about ten minutes too long at the end, but a masterpiece fusing the hyperreal, fantasy, spaghetti western and pure revenge grindhouse into a fantastic melange of blood and steel guitars.

A really uneven movie - lots of great acting by DiCaprio, Jackson, etc but the film felt like it had moments of amazing badassery mixed with boring slogs of nothing. I was extremely apathetic towards the lead and his love interest and I thought the ultimate cause of conflict was weak and moronic. When the movie shines, it's glorious. When it doesn't, it's a really dull venture.

A trim would do wonders. Cut (or simply ignore) the KKK scene and most of the final half hour and you have something really solid and entertaining. A very funny Christoph Waltz owns every scene he's in. To such a degree that the rest of the film suffers.

When QT was writing this, he finished the story 2/3rds the way through and then realised it wasnt long enough, so he tacked another hour on the end which was not only ridiculous, but was basically Kill Bill with bullets. That said, this is as much fun you can have from a pantomine about slavery. It builds from a comedy to threatening and impending violence brilliantly ( if slowly ) and the tension when LdC kicks into gear is frankly brilliant. Super cast, with Waltz and Caprio outstanding

Fun fact: Django's character arc, from 'tragic victim' to 'Christoph Waltz's comic relief friend' to 'Christoph Waltz's pretty cool friend' to 'Actual Protagonist' is eerily reminiscent of black representation in Hollywood films, from extras, to goofy side characters, to interesting (but still non-protagonist) characters to actual protagonists. It's almost as if that's been done on purpose or something. You know, to make a point about black representation in movies. Or something.

Django Unchained is possibly my favourite Quentin Tarantino film to date. This simply has everything. The overall direction and writing is some of Quentin Tarantino's finest work and the action, violence, humour and soundtrack is a collaboration of complete escapism. The casting & characters are perfect too. Jamie Foxx carries the film well and Leonardo Di Caprio is effortlessly comfortable. But Christoph Waltz once again steals the show and he gives another unforgettably enjoyable performance.

nice homage story, great acting (waltz simply dominates!) and all the perfect touches of humor throughout. without giving anything away, the last 20 minutes or so are certainly padded out and could have been streamlined for a more thrilling experience.

This is serious. This is funny. This is very action-packed. This has an amazing cast featuring Christoph Waltz in another great performance. This is long. That doesn't matter a lot. This is so impossibly full of blood, in a ridiculously funny way. This is filled with Tarantino-esque-ly obscure film references. This has a spaghetti-western-tinged score. This is Tarantino's best in 15 years.

Tarantino western is truly one of kind indeed. from using Eastwood signature wide shoot to close-up the lone gunslinger style of classic western. his homage to one of his beloved genre was lavishly fun and fully stylish. Although its also much exploitative,sometimes even too violently graphic the way he conveys some satire and few social commentary about black slavery history. Tarantino has crafted his own standard of spaghetti western with brilliancy and genuine passion for the genre.

At first, feels like Tarantino making Kill Bill for slavery, but rewatches reveal a lot of depth, especially when it comes to Schultz, who is a far better character than he appears to be.

Tarantino does a western similar to the way he did a WW2 action movie (Inglourious Bastards) with an amazing script, over-the-top violence, and a talented cast playing interesting characters. If this is formulaic I could care less because it's film making at its finest!

An excellent spaghetti western set against a backdrop of rampant Southern racism. In a word: fun. Length and pacing are oft cited as its weakest points, but I don't agree. I would like to have seen a stronger motivational source for Schultz (Waltz), a clearer establishment of the potential for failure in the final drama, and the racist ham dialed down two notches. Given these, the length and pace would have felt welcomed and rounded out. Still, this film is worthy of a good measure of praise.

Quentin Tarantino plunges shamelessly into America's dark and not-so-distant past - into the antebellum, slave-driven south - and comes up, astonishingly, with one hell of an entertaining film. It's a sickly-stylized, tone-deaf revenge fantasy - chock-full of some of the most memorable dialogue ever written - and Tarantino's actors (Christoph Waltz, Samuel L. Jackson) match his astounding bravado every step of the way.

Tarantino hits home again. I've never really been a fan of Westerns but this is a definite exception. It's too long, but that gripe is overshadowed by the brutal, dark yet charming storyline. Waltz is also superb as are all of the main characters and overall - definitely a film well deserving of its praise.
