    Just seen this film and I think its affected my outlook on life, in a good way

    Its the most powerful, awe inspiring, humbling, gripping, heart wrenching thing iv ever seen

    Its a Man's film, and every Man should watch it, makes you feel lucky to be a alive and live in a free World

    I hate Racism, and slavery and this film has made me hate it more

    Ill be thinking about this film for a long time

    Where does it rank in terms of Tarantino films? I still haven't been to see it.

    It's a bit OTT in the old violence blood department, but humerous too. I enjoyed it & didn't drag at all. So more like back to the earlier stuff IMO.

    I enjoyed it, was a bit disappointed that the German dude got taken out a bit prematurely, what an actor that guy is, also Samuel L Jackson deserves a few awards for the butler performance

    Superb film - one of Tarrantino's best, up there with Pulp Fiction.

    Did you come up with the slogans for the Yorkie or Snickers by any chance?

    I enjoyed the vast majority of it, thought it dragged a bit post Dr. Schultz.

    Zero Dark Thirty is a good film as well.

    Well worth a watch.

    The torture scenes are well done in it (and are necessary before we have someone whinge about it).

    Both Django and Zero Dark Thirty are great films - make sure you see them in the cinema. They will be good on Blu Ray etc... but can't be compared to seeing them at the pictures.

    Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, Leonardo Di Caprio and Sam Jackson are all amazing in Django. Sam Jackson in particular surprised me, didn't expect him to ever see him play that type of character, but he nailed it.

    Yeah, saw it a few weeks back on stream. Top film and highly recommended. The dialogue is up there with the best Tarantino films...some fantastic one liners, normally followed by someone's head exploding lol

    9/10

    good point about Blu Ray, it will look amazing in 1080P, on a decent SmartTV

    Up there with QT's best, Pulp Fiction & Kill Bill, thought he under used the N word though.

    Watched it yesterday in the cinema, very good film, a lot of excellent performances backing up a good story and great action. I thought it was well balanced and handled the subject of slavery very well. May take a look at Zero Dark Thirty as that sounds pretty good too.
