Django Unchained (2012) - Quentin Tarantino

Well, without beating around the bush, this film was a disappointment at best.
For me, I really think the classic Tarantino films, the brilliant ones, all rely on a big cast. There isn't one main character. There's always a few. Django Unchained, relies solely on Django. Christoph Waltz is good in the film, but as he's not a title character. He's at best, a supporting artist. Leonardo Di Caprio is briliant as always, but the script is a little lack lustre, meaning not even Leo can save this movie. Even the soundtrack, usually a key feature in a Tarantino films, was just a bit, "meh". There were a couple of good scenes, interesting and funny, but they didn't disguise the rest of the film. The editing was a far cry from when Sally Menke used to do it in his older films, and it really shows in the final product.
