Tarantino at his best

Rating: 7/10 (25 March 2013)

Django Unchained is the 8th movie of Quentin Tarantino, and, as always, he has made a great movie. It's a remake from a movie released in 1966, with an excellent cast on it. Great actors have made a great job. Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Fox, Kerry Washington, Christoph Waltz and Samuel L. Jackson are part of the main cast of the movie, and those, in my opinion, deserved an Oscar. Set during slavery in 1858, it's the history of Django (Jamie Foxx), a slave who is found by Dr. King Schultz, who hires him as a killer to kill three brothers that are villains. After killing them, they go after Django's wife, Broomhilda (Kerry Washington) who is a slave of Calvin J. Candie (Leonardo DiCaprio) a man who is the owner of a farm named Candieland.. Calvin has a slave named (Samuel L. Jackson), who is important to the end of the movie.
The movie is bloody, violent, with a lot of racist words and with a very intelligent script, which was successfully played by the cast. It's also funny and sad, where the acid dialogs on it are connected to the way that black people were treated at that time. Another important point is the soundtrack, which has a large variety of styles, going through rap until electronic music. The photography is also fantastic. Tarantino has created an excellent job again. Django Unchained was considered one of the best movies in 2012, with several Golden Globe and Oscar nominations, it worth the 2 hours and 45 minutes standing in front of the screen, watching Tarantino at his best.
