| Django was my second favorite film of the year next to The Life Of Pie... Tarantino is my dude, he's never made a bad film, and seems to be hitting his stride. I'm not black, and I can see how it might be weird for ya'll, but I was with my cousin who is half black, and his step dad who's full black from Compton, and they !!ing loved it! !! is one of the funniest films of the year, but at the same time one of the most intense/disturbing films of the year. Tarantino is a master at balancing his films with heart wrenching REALISTIC violence, and OVER THE TOP "Tarantino" violence... For the most part the performances were great! LEO was so !!ing amazing. Dude needs to win an Oscar, but I'm not sure they're going to give him the nod, because of the content... !! was weird hearing him say the N-word, but dude was such a bada#s but likable at the same time. Samuel L. Jackson dropped a fire performance as a grumpy[..] slave, and almost stole the show! Jamie Foxx's performance was decent, but I thought it was a tad underwritten for the protagonist of the film. Dude did a solid job, and did the best with what he was given. Kerry Washington's performance was beautiful and heartbreaking as Broomhilda, and she gave a very surprising and brave performance. Overall I give it a 4 out of 5. I love Tarantino, but for me Inglorious was his masterpiece so far. Django was still an amazing film, but probably ranks : 1.Inglorious 2.Reservoir 3.Pulp 4.Django 5.Jackie Brown | |

| Great, great movie. Anyone who thinks it is racist should give it a watch. Tarantino authentically depicted the south. It could be emotionally unsettling for some, but I'd recommend it. | |

| I went with my black friends and they enjoyed it greatly [pic] I'm Spanish and I thought they did a great job showing how retarded and unintelligent inbred white hicks were back then. He also did a great job authentically depicted the brutality of slavery and other issues blacks had to deal with in the civil war era. He also did a great job showing how much farther along Europeans were culturally (and still are). As a history buff I loved this movie, Tarantino had some serious balls to depict slavery and the old south as authentically as he did. Yall can piggy back Spike or just listen to whatever your cousins say and !! like that but as a movie fan I have no clue how you can pa#s up on a movie of the year candidate in fear of getting offended [pic] If he doesnt depict it brutally enough he gets flack, if it's too brutal he gets flack [pic] Let the oscars do the talking | |

| If there is any group of people that don't like this film it will be racist white southerners | |

| It would've taken balls to put the word kike in inglorious basterds 100 + times. Going at blacks is easy work everybody will just call them sensitive. Tarentino knows which envelops to push and which ones to stay away from. | |

Why would the word "kike" an American term that originated in America for jewish immigrants, be used in Germany during World War 2? That doesn't make sense to me. That's just historically inaccurate | ||

I think the accuracy of culture can still be important in a historical fiction movie. You brought up Inglorious basterds first dude, you're point just didn't work out too well [pic] So let me get this... Your complaint is that Django is too authentically representative of the culture of America during the Civil War era? [pic] | ||
