I heard about Django first from one of my close friends who breathed movies and watched at least two a day unless he was busy chasing some TV series in his dimly lit room. After that many people followed and told me it was a great movie but warned me about the violence. For that reason I put off watching it again and again and finally after a long wait I watched it this weekend.
Brilliant movie with lots and lots of realistic violence in short :) The way it was shot, the acting, plot, screenplay, in short almost everything was brilliant. The movie gives a very vivid and shocking picture of the suffering of the black people and pulls it down to a much more personal level, perhaps sharing it a bit with us. You can't but hate and still be intrigued by equally charming and cruel boy king Calvin Candie played brilliantly by DiCaprio and love kind but again sometimes ruthless bounty hunter Dr. Schultz. Django Freeman simple on surface but surprisingly intelligent and resolute under, constantly surprises you. His understanding of people and reasoning while different from others is quite insightful. Candie's senior house slave Stephen skillfully played by Samuel L Jackson also manages to gain your genuine hate.
However the movie is quite violent with a notable disregard for human life firing bullets like 'Hello's, and that too quite visually with a lot of realism. No one is better in this regard, neither Django nor the villain(s), even though Django and Dr. Schultz are not very unjustified in being violent. Django takes up the same disregard for human life that was characteristic of his former masters in the form of revenge. We are not in any position to judge him, but we can wonder about other possibilities.
