    Fairly entertaining, but...

    by CatCow

    I have to wonder what is going through Tarantino's mind lately. Plenty of wild blood spatter and guts flying everywhere, plenty of violence and bad language... Enough to keep any Tarantino fan happy. And some quite humorous parts as well, the rest of the audience was laughing pretty hard. But why is it that he tried so hard to avoid showing female parts when they were nude, but decided to show off Django's junk? Almost reminds me of British television. Other than that annoyance, it was a good movie.

    Blew My Nuts Away!

    by AlexBS90

    QT does it again. I will admit, this movie is not for everyone but if you have seen other QT movies, you will enjoy. The way the movie was shot, the soundtrack which is probably one of the best I have ever heard, and the casting was all great! Jamie Foxx and Chris Waltz are a great team and Samuel Jackson is to die for. It is very graphic as all of his movies are so leave the kids at home. This is worth seeing on the big screen and I know that others will agree.

    Django Unchained

    by Madame_Vales

    A true Tarantino classic. Action packed, no expense was cut for the blood and fight scenes. Thoroughly enjoyed it. At the end, the patrons in the theatre clapped because we had all been thoroughly entertained. Must go, must see!

    DJANGO fast paced

    by Merrily2Go

    LeMiz only had front row seats and we jumped to DJANGO instead and were not disappointed. The many plots were fast action and the almost 2-1/2 hour movie went quickly. Acting was really good and the twists took your breath. It was a bit too Quentin Tarentino in that it was gratuitously violent and closing your eyes didn't diminish the images. Wonderful casting and even some lighter moments (but not a comedy) and the character development made you interested in what happened to them.

    Not as good as I had hoped

    by Dancinglibrarian

    This movie was extremely violent and pretty typical of Quentin Tarantino. I felt that the use of the "n" word was excessive and it began to annoy me. Some of the scenes were realistic about the history of slavery and made me feel sick about the representation. The best acting was Christopher Waltz. Jamie Foxx gave an average performance. If you enjoy revenge fantasies, this will not disappoint. There were some humorous moments. This is not on my list of movies to see again.

    Mel Brooks has to envy this movie

    by mkkonderla

    This is a modern day Blazing Saddles. Mel Brooks has to be jealous that he could not push the envelope as Tarrantino did with Django Unchained. This movie will last the ages. If you go to a Quentin Tarrantino movie and are shocked at the racial slurs and languange well then that's like expecting to go to a Jewish Deli and order a pulled Pork sandwich. It's Good vs. Evil and the movie does expose some of the brutality that did exist in the late 1850's in regards to slavery. It was a reality that this country had to overcome. A must see movie. The acting is great but the writing is over the top.

    SOOOO GOOOD!!

    by juliachan33

    So entertaining yet gives you a sense of how ridiculous slavery was. Acting was great and storyline even better! Don't even think twice ...Just go and see it. Just be prepared for some bloody scenes - expected for a Tarantino movie.

    *BEST MOVIE OF 2012*

    by UncleBeez

    The movies name is "django unchained" but honestly after seeing this movie it should be called "Django off the chain"!!!!!! This movie is incredible. It's really funny, a bit gory but totally Tarantinos style and all around entertaining. Go see this movie, you will not and can not be disappointed:-)

    Django was fantastic!!!!

    by jemsp4

    Django (The D is Silent) was excellent. The story, the acting, the filiming were all top shelf and perfectly Tarantino! This is the best Tarantino movie yet and the cast was over the top good. This movie deserves recognition and Tarantino deserves an award. Great job QT!

    Misunderstood

    by

    I saw the movie tonight and I thought it was great! It was action pack. I love that Quentin always does a cameo. All the lead characters did their roles well. I think a lot of people were reading to much in to certain words used in the movie. I feel that the way that it was used was appropriate for the time that the move took place. Other than that I enjoyed it. One part was a bit anti climactic but over all I would go see it again.

    cinematic creativity in a historic backdrop

    by bmarshall_1980

    Django is not a documentary. Yet the background of the movie
    is steeped in the world of slavery. This movie is a forbidden love
    story that is strung across the horrific brutality that erupted
    from slavery and that of the pre-civil war era. In between
    the story lines there is humor. The humor on the
    surface brings laughter yet if you pause for a moment
    the humor is a product of twisted perspectives.
    I hope you enjoy this movie. I sure did!

    classy comedic capricious

    by ahawayek

    Jamie Foxx keeps it serious
    Samuel L Jackson is hillarious
    DiCaprio is amazing
    Waltz is oscar worthy

    This is a great moving story that satirizes the ridiculous past of the U.S. while keeping it funny and interesting. Waltz is amazing!

    Bottom Line- Everyone go see this movie; it has something for everyone.

    Django is my new Super Hero!

    by airlakers

    Tarantino has done it again! If you liked or loved unglorious bastards, you'll love Django. In my opinion Django is funnier and a little more suspenseful. I've read some reviews in which people where offended by the movie's depiction of slaves and it's use of the "N" word. I'm a minority and have personally experienced racism in my life as a young youth. I can tell you Django doesn't regress BlackPeople 100 years as stated in some reviews. The movies setting is set in1865 and racism and slavery was a daily part of life and now part of our nations history.
    It's a MOVIE AND A REALLY ENTERTAINING MOVIE AT THAT. DJANGO IS MY NEW SUPERHERO.

    Pure Entertainment Movie

    by Gjnsgeneva

    I enjoy this movie. I was expecting this movie to be story of slavery. However it was a movie of entertainment rather than a sad movie of black history. In the end the black man won. If you can't get pass the use of bad language or the N-word the movie isn't for you.
