Review Django Unchained


Recently freed slave, Django (Jamie Foxx), who joins with German bounty hunter, Dr. King Schultz (Christoph Waltz), in the business of killing bad people for money. Schultz recruits Django to help collect the bounty on the vicious Brittle Brothers - promising to assist the former slave in a quest to rescue his wife Broomhilda Von Shaft (Kerry Washington) from one of the wealthiest and most dangerous plantation owners in the deep south, Francophile Calvin Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio).

Going into this movie I went in as a neutral. I had seen the amazing reviews and the fact that it has a rating of 8.7 on here, It was hard not to get excited, I expected to be bored half way through and lose interest, this didn't happen, The movie has you engaged at all times, the gun fights are better than you will see in most action films, there is a very sly hint of humor which is mostly added by Samuel Jackson, and his performance is just amazing, personally i feel his performance stands out the most for me. Makes you feel like "OMG Stephen is so annoying".

DiCaprio, as expected, brings a captivating blend of charisma and malevolence to slave-owning Candie. He’s a complicated villain, brought to life by a great performance.

Waltz, steals the entire film spotlight as Schultz. The character is just as charming with the added benefit of being on the “right” side of history this time, hunting fugitives and punishing slave owners.

As for Django himself, Foxx is a welcome touchstone to Waltz and DiCaprio’s scene-stealing personalities – a quiet and attentive player that grows in confidence and effectiveness throughout the events of the plot.

I don't have anything else to say other than a really good movie that I would recommend to all who dare looking at some blood.
