Tarantino Does It Again!

Rating: 10/10 (5 February 2016)

Quentin Tarantino is one of my favorite filmmakers ever, and he did not disappoint with Django Unchained. Django (Jamie Foxx) is a freed slave that turns into a bounty hunter when he teams with Schulz (Christoph Waltz). Their paths cross as Django searches for his wife, who is a slave for Calvin Candie (Leonardo Dicaprio).
The acting is top notch as it should be with all these big stars. Jamie Foxx had a great performance but was honestly overshadowed by the brilliance of Leo and Samuel L Jackson. Jackson played Steve, who was a house slave to Candie. The commitment to the parts really added to the great story telling. This can be expected from a Tarantino movie.
The soundtrack is one of the better ones that can be found in film. The songs really added to the story and increased the entertainment level. It all really set the necessary mood through the movie, whether it be the comical parts or the intense parts.
The only real issue to find is the length of the movie. Three hours is long, but honestly bearable because of how well the story fit together and moved along. There were no dull moments as the storyline just kept getting more and more exciting. The movie is long, but every minute is needed to get the full experience. Great movie, 10/10.
