Best Western

Rating: 9/10 (5 June 2013)

Let me start by saying I am a big western fan, and that maybe my review will be biased because of it.
But even if you are not into western movies, I believe Django would be a great choice for almost any film-loving adult with the desire to be entertained.
At the start I had my doubts that Jamie Foxx could pull off a true cowboy role. But luckily was I wrong. I honestly never thought we'd see a brand new, original, rugged and tough, slightly sarcastic at times, and mostly quiet, loner cowboy just like the timeless old spaghetti westerns. But being as Tarantino is such a fan of Sergio Leone classics like the Dollars trilogy, and other great films, I guess I should have known better. Needless to say, Foxx pulled it off like no other, and I sincerely hope there are sequels.
Also, Christoph Waltz may just be one of the most talented actors in our time. If you enjoyed his menacing performance in "Inglorious Basterds", then you will be far from disappointed with him in Django Unchained. Leonardo DiCaprio aced his part by playing one of the most evil antagonists I have seen in a long while. His performance was perfect, and truly convincing.
I hope people enjoy it as much I do.
