Django Unchained (18)

Best Taratino movie ever, and probably my favourite move ever (for the moment). Incredibly violent but also hilarious, and it deals with subject matter that has been too long ignored by Hollywood. I did not find it too long - time slipped by unnoticed. I cannot wait to see it again, and then to buy it on DVD. An entertaining and importent movie.

I liked this a lot. No one builds tension slowly but with so much menace as Tarantino. Rarely do film makers ever get given the time to create such tension either because of stupid executives with minds of 14 year old boys or the technical and economic restrictions of time that are part of the film experience. On top of this superb tension building he finds brilliant ways to release the tension through humour and violence. I understand why anyone wouldnt like the violence but its an unfortunate thing that whatever a film maker may put into a film real life will always be far worse if you happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Exhaustive? Is that an adjective you give to Kill Bill, one of the most thrilling action sagas in recent times? Crass? Well, Death Proof was not that much fun but it was not that bad either. And 'Directionless'?Inglourious Basterds had a superb and taut script where every character had something to do. I don't know why are you so biased towards Tarantino. Each of these films are good. And Django Unchained is clearly one of the best films this year..... Very violent yet hilariously funny, superb acting from all corners- Waltz and Jackson steal the show while Leo shows up in an awesome turn as a plantation owner and superb visuals....and then there are the Tarantino trademarks- sharp dialogue, humor mixed easily with fear and so much more....

i was disappointed by this film , there were two scenes which involved violence at a level which made me feel sick and i very nearly left (they involved dogs and a hammer) . christian weitz was the standout actor in the film by far and he added the lightness and humour which made it not seem so ridiculously violent. sorry but this is no pulp fiction. lastly can it be good for us to watch films with so much violence??

Before you go to see this film, ask yourself "Since life is a finite resource, can I afford to waste three hours of it watching puerile drivel?" This film is Hollywood piffle, which takes the historically significant subject of slavery and exploits it as an opportunity to wallow in gory spectacle and gun worship. What kind of an idiot thinks that a spring-loaded Derringer hidden up the sleeve is interesting plot device? Or that a 15-minute gun battle is anything other than boring? It is sad to think of the good films that could be made on this subject if funds were not being wasted on drivel like this. I give it one star to recognise the good work of the actors and production team. The script gets zero.

Tarantino - the perfect director hero for the ADD generation!

I enjoyed it and its worth the price of admission to watch. Waltz is great but DiCaprio is the main man, he is a brilliant combination of charm, southern manners and pure evil! It went slightly of track when QT made an appearance... why!? Seemed a tad indulgent on his part and that Aussie accent has be up there with the worst accents on film!

Okay. My fault. Should've just waited for the DVD. Actually, should've just waited 'til it showed up on TV - then wouldn't have paid at all. The Cons: Overlong (by the time we reach the Tarantino-scene, it's a case of 'surely there's not more ?'. Devoid of any emotion. (you don't care for anybody) Indulgent (that Tarantino scene, oh boy - and don't give me any of that 'he knows he a shitty actor rubbish' - that just ridiculous - he claims to be making a statement about slavery and in that scene he blows it) Rambling (boy does it ramble, his dialogue is simply not strong enough to carry the broad brushstrokes) Imitation (it's not always flattery - at some point QT HAS to find his own true voice )there's a hint of it in Jackie Brown; but he's copied all the BAD things about spaghetti westerns - even the great ones were too long, rambling and featured often forgettable dialogue, well done QT you paid tribute well!) The violence (always partial to bloodshed, but I've always believed it should hurt - Wild Bunch, it looks like it hurts. Godfather - it looks like it hurts. This? Kids playing, nothing more) The Pros: Leo is great. The soundtrack (got to be careful here) works - but ONLY BECAUSE IT WORKED BEFORE!!!!!!! Let's stop all this praise for his musical choices - they are lazy - the scenes where the music works well is BECAUSE THE MUSIC WOULD WORK WELL ANYWHERE , IT"S GOOD MUSIC!) Please stop giving QT credit for something even he'd be hard-pushed to ruin. You want to see a great use of music - watch DRIVE, watch MANHUNTER. Oh and I've seen mention of his unique use of snowy landscapes - only unique if you choose to believe that GRAND SILENZIO and JEREMIAH JOHNSON don't exist!

1st, day of release, in screen 5, then 2 five days later......3rd viewing screen 1 yesterday Not seen that before

A superb movie. Great performances from the leads, particularly Waltz, excellent dialogue, great soundtrack and Tarantino back on top of the game.
