Quentin Tarantino: Django Unchained

Django unchained is an extremely raw movie. This is not a movie for the squeamish. Django takes place in the year 1858. Dr.Schultz, a bounty hunter, seeks out a slave named Django in order to track down wanted men. He later offers to buy Django's freedom and help him find his wife if Django agrees to be his deputy for a while. As to be expected from a Tarantino film; Django unchained is a spaghetti-western style film. The film very explicitly depicts the horrors that went on during the slave trade including lashings, Mandingo fights, and agonizing death. And although the focus of the film seemed to be around gore, which was excessively over exaggerated; there was quite a bit of comedy and a very good plot with incredibly vivid characters. I would highly recommend watching this film, but be warned, you will without a doubt be cringing throughout.
