What Tarantino has is an appreciation for gut-level exploitation film appeal, combined with an artist's desire to transform that gut element with something higher, better, more daring. His films challenge taboos in our society in the most direct possible way, and at the same time add an element of parody or satire.

Django Unchained also has the pure, almost meaningless excitement which I found sorely lacking in Tarantino's previous film, Inglourious Basterds, with its misfiring spaghetti-Nazi trope and boring plot. I can only say Django delivers, wholesale, that particular narcotic and delirious pleasure that Tarantino still knows how to confect in the cinema, something to do with the manipulation of surfaces. It's as unwholesome, deplorable and delicious as a forbidden cigarette.

Even if you don't like Westerns, and even if you don't like every Tarantino film, Django Unchained is an excellent film with outstanding actors. Tarantino knows how to reflect on various genres (Spanish Westerns, slave dramas) and, on top of that, creates a good mix of bloody violent scenes and situational comedy (e.g., the horsemen with their homemade masks). It's well worth seeing (and I'd happily watch it again).

The movie Quentin Tarantino has written and directed is corkscrewed, inside-out, upside-down, simultaneously clear-eyed and completely out of its mind.

Django Unchained doesn't merely hit its marks; it blows them to bloody chunks. It's manna for mayhem mavens.
Dec 26, 2012
Despite these quibbles, Django Unchained offers an embarrassment of riches (and actors in tiny cameos).

Is Django Unchained about race and power and the ugly side of history? Only as much as "Inglourious Basterds" was about race and power and the ugly side of history. It's a live-action, heads-exploding, shoot-'em-up cartoon. Sometimes it crackles, and sometimes it merely cracks.

It's not particularly funny or moving and it's terribly self-indulgent. Flamboyance and cartoonishness rule, there's hardly a moment of genuine emotion, and most overtures in that direction are superficial. As a picture ostensibly about love, revenge and the ugliness of slavery, Django Unchained has almost zero subtext and is a largely soulless bloodbath, in which the history of pain and retribution is coupled carelessly with a cool soundtrack and some verbose dialogue. Though it might just entertain the sh.t out of the less discerning.

Filme quase perfeito. Ele tem uma direção maravilhosa, com musicas de fundo excelentes, zoom em cenas impactantes, tiroteios viscerais e uma ambientação do velho oeste muito bem feita, com todo vestuario e contexto escravagista e de procurado vivo ou morto. A história gira em torno de Django que é resgatado por um caçador de recompesas chamado Dr. Shulz que usa da labia para chegar perto dos seus alvos e depois mata-los. Ele ensina Django a ser um caçador de recompesas e na 1° metade do filme eles trabalham juntos para caçar seus alvos, usando a labia do Dr. Na 2° metade, eles tentam resgatar a esposa de Django que é uma escrava numa fazenda, enganando o dono da fazenda, interpretado pelo DiCaprio, que é um dono de escravo extremamente racista mas um excelente vilão que rende ótimas cenas. No final, DiCaprio leva a melhor sob o Dr. Shulz, descobrindo seu plano que se vira contra ele, Dr. Shulz então se mata para matar o vilão, o que deixa Django sozinho que apesar do tiroteio mais visceral que já vi, ele acaba sendo capturado e vendido como escravo de uma mineradora. O final é um deus ex machina que o Django dá a volta por cima e mata todo mundo, o final não tem muito sentido mas é MUITO FODA. Incrível como, apesar de simples o plot do filme, ele é ao mesmo tempo um filme muito imersivo que te faz pensar sobre a escravidão e o contexto da época, com personagens muito memoráveis e uma história quase perfeita com começo, meio e fim.

Django Unchained has some hilarious moments in it. I especially enjoyed the KKK idots bickering about their masks. It's also got some cool fight scenes. But, it does feel heavy-handed (similar to Inglorious Basterds): the bad guys are over-the-top evil and the good guys get to smite everyone.

This is one of the worst Tarantino's movies. It starts well but the second half turns out to be quite bad and I really didn't like the ending with a soundtrack that really seems to be out of place.

this movie is a Mandingo ripoff which is a movie done in the 1975 but when Quentin Tarantino decided to re-circle the story and cash it on the fans well guess what a critically acclaimed movie. and it's 2012 for crying out loud why we have movies about racism any more i thought we left that river dry. it's not entertaining at all neither can be taking seriously. overall another disgusting movie by this stupid director.

The genres listed for this film are: Action, Adventure, Drama, Crime, Western. Wrong on adventure and wrong on crime (yes, lots of criminal acts but it's not about crime/solving crime), and it should include: parody and satire. Tarantino definitely has a signature method of directing but it always seems juvenile, never maturing. I recognize alot of people dig his films and that's fine but I can't recommend them for their shallow, excessive violence and shallow caricature characters.
