Best Tarantino Film Yet?

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2013)

I am a huge Quentin Tarantino fan. Prior to viewing 'Django: Unchained', 'Pulp Fiction' was by far my favourite film of his, but after watching this, I'm just not sure.
Let me start by saying that the premise of the film is excellent. A slave turned gunslinger on a quest for revenge. Tarantino is no stranger to the revenge flick genre following 'Kill Bill', but I can't say that I've ever seen a film of this nature executed in a more brilliant and beautiful way than 'Django: Unchained'.
A huge factor in this film's success was the incredible and often spellbinding performances of some of the picture's stars. In particular, Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L. Jackson and Christoph Waltz stole the show. Jamie Foxx, as 'Django', put in a very solid performance, as did Kerry Washington, but neither could begin to compete with the impeccable and thrilling performances that this trio put in. Every single line, and every movement they made contributed to the acting masterclass boasted in this movie.
Overall, 'Django: Unchained' is not just a mindless action movie. It is a great film with a great story and great actors, and of course, the classic over-the-top violence that comes with every Tarantino flick. Yes there are many historical inaccuracies, and often many surreal moments that may leave the viewer thinking to themselves: 'That would never happen!' This however should not for one moment spoil your enjoyment of this film, and you should recognise this film for what it is; a cinematic masterpiece that will surely go down in film history, as one of the classics.
