Quentin Taratino At His Finest!

Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2014)

After the critical and commercial success of Inglourious Basterds, I often found myself wondering whether director Quentin Taratino would top his 2009 effort. It seems like he did in the form of Django Unchained. If you're a big Taratino fan, this film will deliver. While it features lots of violence and blood, the film often stays light-hearted because it has lots of comedy here. Taratino still has his knack for dialogue and he the script he wrote is just amazing and the dialogue is just perfect.
Taratino directed a film that features a time when slavery was still prominent in the American South. This film is about a bounty hunter named Dr. Schultz who frees Django and Django joins him in the bounty-hunting business. They come up with a plan to rescue Django's wife from a slave owner who goes by the name of Calvin Candie.
If you want to see incredible acting, this is the movie to see. Leonardo DiCaprio surely had a gutsy role and he delivers tremendously and it's one of his finest career performances. His scene at the dinner table was just fabulous and so abrupt. Very good performance. He is rivaled by Christophz Waltz who once again delivers an excellent performance and eerily similar to his role in Basterds. Jamie Foxx delivers a strong performance and has some of the best one-liners in the film. Also, Samuel L. Jackson added some clever comedy here to lighten things up.
Overall, I don't know whether to call this Taratino's best movie since he directed many high-quality films like Basterds, Pulp Fiction, and the Kill Bill films. But if this is the way to get people to like westerns again, so be it. It's not historically accurate of course, but this is not meant to be. This film has plenty of gore, guts, and violence and any Taratino fan will be happily satisfied. I rate this film 10/10.
