DJANGO UNCHAINED explodes America's shameful past in a brilliant, bloody reckoning that is part Sergio Leone, part Mel Brooks - and all Quentin Tarantino. Hearts racing and jaws agape, movie lovers will revel in the cathartic effects of this modern master at play. With his work underscored by the year's most eclectic soundtrack, Tarantino rounds up a posse of powerhouse performers, including Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Samuel L. Jackson and Kerry Washington, who together light the fuse of this dynamite film - one that ignites the screen with equal parts originality and "Oh no, they didn't!"
