December 1, 2020
Christoph Waltz once again turns in a performance (largely due to the writing) that is astoundingly likeable and worthy of award consideration.

Tarantino accomplishes what he set out to do, make a fun, violent, badass spaghetti western. He brings together the classic aesthetics of the genre, with his modern, pop culture saturated sensibilities, and his whip smart dialogue.

A loose-cannon Best Picture pick.

Tarantino designed this revisionist western to blow people's gaskets. Packed with physical comedy, bloody action and hell-bent revenge, it looks like a classic widescreen Sergio Leone western...

Django Unchained is bold, hysterical, entertaining, brutal and daring, it is another masterpiece from the present-master of the western, Quentin Tarantino.

On the surface, Django Unchained is your standard revenge fairy tale, but it has a mean streak that enhances every aspect of the experience. Equal parts electrifying and hard to watch, its joyously liberating ending sticks the explosive landing

Waltz has a way of being flamboyant and staid at the same time that makes him mesmerizing to watch.

Fans of Tarantino won't come away disappointed, but he can do a lot better than this.

Waltz is nearly as good here as he was in "Basterds" -- providing "Django" with the true heart and soul of the film. Foxx hits the right notes as Django, while DiCaprio is clearly having fun playing way against type.

everything I wanted it to be: a kick-ass tale of revenge with amazing performances from its leads, smart chunks of dialog punctuated by action, blood-spattered gun fights ...
February 8, 2019
A supremely entertaining, richly cinematic treat, which manages to work in some fun (and often very humorous) genre subversions and engaging character nuance amongst the frenetic gunplay.

Quentin Tarantino's latest film is a deliciously entertaining revenge fantasy set in the American South just a couple years before the Civil War.

Yes, the sublime strays to the ridiculous. But all the while I just keep picturing Tarantino behind the camera re-imagining history and whispering to himself, This is so cool! If you like his style, this is another winner.

Without a doubt this movie is made in the filmmaker's signature style, but it achieves much more.
