Loved it.

Some of the scenes were hard to watch. Im not a squemish guy and violence doesnt usually bother me, but when humans are treated like animals, that is a little much.

But great fun movie. Some legitimately funny stuff too, which I think only Tarantino could pull off in a movie like this.

Jamie Foxx was good

Waltz, Dicaprio, and Samuel L. were GREAT. Completely believed their characters.

I love tarentino. I always say when i am flipping through channel i cannot turn off one of his movies no matter how many times i have seen it (see reservoir dogs-viewed multi-hundred times).

Here is the conundrum---Everyone (generalizing amongst civilized people in he world) agrees American slavery was an abomination. Yet in my lifetime only two instances ever showed the brutal face of it. That would be "roots" and django.

Got cut off there. Why was everyone so uncomfortable watching django? Because this maltreatment of fellow humans was a regular occurance in the daily life of your grandparents grandparents. Not that long ago. You could treat a man or woman or child worse than a mule. You could be charged fkr beating a mule but not a human. Only roots and django showed me what slavery was really like. Textbooks and even the Tubman/Davis books did not show the reality to me. Maybe if Stephen king could write a book on "plantation punishment" it would become a bestseller and get attention as to what slavery was all about.
Why was there an effort to keep people from this movie? This was far from a glorification of slavery or a gratuitous use of violence or the n word. I found it the complete opposite. It was a vengeance movie and the bad guys got waxed as well as some good guys-but the ultimate victory is djangos.

I agree. Every Tarantino movie is a vengeance movie, except for Reservoir Dogs.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

Quentin Tarentino is one of the most annoying clowns on the planet. He has that "please punch me" face and his rapid fire (coked out) delivery talking bullshit most of the time is even more annoying. I try to avoid his bullshit movies lately.

Why would his face or speech patterns affect your decision to see his movies? You have been missing some good movies. He has yet to make a clunker.

Agreed on all points.

Are you serious? Jackie Brown.

Django was great though.

Jackie Brown is a good worst movie


I mean that's like LeBron scoring 18.

For anyone else its a good game

I dont even know if its the treating human like that so much as its actually just not visually appealling watching dogs rip a man apart

Tarantino may be a bit of a victim of his own success here. Everyone says were numb to violence in tv and movies, but its usually not this realisitic. Certainly its more realistic now than it was 20 years ago, but of the last 10 movie deaths you've seen, how many had that ultra real feel? Id guess less than half.

Missed this first time around. Vinny you're nuts if you think Jackie Brown is a bad movie. The get in the trunk scene between Sam Jackson and Chris Tucker was worth the price of admission alone.

Jackie Brown is awesome IMHO. I loved the scene where Bridget Fonda is teasing/aggravating Robert Deniro and he snaps...and then he tries to explain what happened to Samuel L. Jackson. Classic.

Jackie Brown was the beginning of what now seems like an endless list of shows in which DeNiro mails it in or plays "DeNiro"

I never thought he would turn in to such a "whore". He will do anything for a paycheck,from "Bullwinkle" to "The Family" which looks pretty stupid. That comes out in a few weeks.
