Almost a great western!

Rating: 7/10 (17 July 2013)

Christoph Waltz could read the yellow pages on screen and mesmerize viewers. He is an extreme talent and casted perfectly as a traveling dentist turned bounty hunter in Django.
Jamie Foxx is fair in the lead role and DiCaprio plays it well as the owner of Candy Land.
The "slave" content does nothing to glorify slavery and (thankfully) wasn't too over the top with graphic violence.
There are a few scenes where, I said to myself, "here we go Tarantino...should I close my eyes for this scene?" but much like his previous film Inglorious Bastards, the scenes never materialized into over the top graphic violence he is known for. I have to say I enjoyed watching it.
That being said, this film is a montage of previous westerns. There is no question that QT is a master with original dialog but I can't figure if he is stealing scenes or paying homage to his favorites of the 60's and 70's.
