DVD Reviews of DjangoDVD Review: An overshadowed classic Summary: 4 StarsAnother American reviewer once accurately referred to Sergio Corbucci's Django as disappointing to an audience accustomed to the better-known works of Sergio Leone.
That said, Django is still an excellent, very original Spaghetti western with several memorable and iconic scenes: Django dragging his coffin, prostitutes fighting each other in the mud, the forced removal of a man's ear (referenced in Resevoir Dogs). Django is not up to par with the Dollars trilogy or Once Upon a Time in the West but is nevertheless recommended for any true fan of the genre.
This DVD contains both the original Italian and horrenously-dubbed English versions. The English dubbing truly is awful and should be eschewed in favor of the more natural Italian dialogue with English subtitles.
DVD Review: Crucial for fans of Italian Westerns... Summary: 4 StarsCrucial for fans of Italian Westerns, not so crucial for the uninitiated.
People who dont like Italian Westerns will probably think this is the most ludicrous, unbelievable thing ever filmed. Italian Western fans will probably regard it as one of the better, most unique films in the genre. It's all about excess; excessive violence, excessive fire power, excessive villainy, excessive machismo, etc.
The direction is good, the acting is passable, the music is great. If youre a fan of this sort of movie you owe it to yourself to see it at least once. If youve seen the Leone/Eastwood films and are looking for a good place to start exploring the Italian Western, this movie will serve, but I would suggest Sergio Corbucci's The Great Silence or The Hellbenders, as I think they are better films on the whole.
The package is great; nice print, widescreen presentation, interesting special features.
DVD Review: Django is a 5-star spaghetti feast! Summary: 5 StarsA 1966 release directed by the legendary Sergio Corbucci, Django features Franco Nero as the title character in one of the greatest of the spaghetti western genre. The main character was adapted from a comic book anti-hero who drags a mysterious coffin behind him in search of answers and more importantly, revenge. Django, follows suit with other movies of its likeness, mainly the Leone "Dollars" films and yet it mixes its own twists and contributions that lend something to later films like Sabata and the Sartana trilogy. While few similarities can be traced from this film to the unofficial 30+ sequels, Django and its influence can be seen in other outlets like the video games Boktai, Gungrave and Red Dead Revolver, the music of Rancid, the anime series Cowboy Bebop and of course, the "ear scene" from Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs. While the English dubbing does take away some of the style and feel of both the dialogue and the soundtrack, the movie itself stands alone as a premiere example of a spaghetti western in a time when the genre was really coming into its own and earning a place in cinema history.
Bandits, renegades, stolen gold, a fatal love, a corrupt general, a mysterious stranger dragging a coffin around... this one has it all! Fans of the man with no name films might disagree, but I say add this to the top of your "must watch" list.
DVD Review: A masterpiece Summary: 5 StarsOne the all time gratest spaghetti westerns. A must have!!!. This is different to Sergio Leone's Spaghetti westerns, it's more crude more savage more "real"
