django unchained
With the help of his mentor, a slave-turned-bounty hunter sets out to rescue his wife from a brutal Mississippi plantation owner.
Django Unchained is Quentin Tarantino's best film since Pulp Fiction. It's just amazing. After Christoph Waltz won best actor for his role as Colonel Hans Landa in Inglourious Basterds, his career went down hill. Now he's rejoined with Tarantino and is just as fantastic as he was in Basterds. Waltz plays Dr. King Schultz, a bounty hunter searching for the Brittle brothers, three criminals wanted dead or alive for a large cash reward. Not knowing what they look like, Schultz purchases Django, played by Jamie Foxx, a black slave who's wife Broomhilda was kidnapped by the Brittle brothers and sold to plantation owner Calvin Candie, played by Leonardo DiCaprio. Jamie Foxx is really good as Django, slave-turned bounty hunter that goes on a journey with King Schultz to kill the Brittle brothers and rescue his wife. But it's Leonardo DiCaprio that steals this movie as the sadistic Calvin Candie, the plantation owner who buys Broomhilda. What I find sad is that DiCaprio is such a great actor, and no matter how hard he tries, he will never get nominated for an Oscar because of how ignorant the Academy is. Samuel L. Jackson is almost unrecognizable as Candie's trusted house slave, Stephen. A truly despicable man. Django Unchained is nearly three hours long, but I was never waiting for it to end. It's what you would expect from Tarantino. Wildly entertaining, darkly funny, and extremely violent. Surprisingly, Django Unchained isn't as dialogue-driven as his previous works. Not that that's a bad thing, I'm just saying. This movie has been heavily criticized for largely using the N word. In the movie's defense, being set in slavery times, It's a word that has to be used. If there's one bad thing I can say about the movie, it would be Quentin Tarantino's awful Australian accent. But he's only in it for five minutes. Django Unchained is a great film.
