Reviews

Denmark released, PAL/Region 2 DVD. Franco Nero stars as Django, a lone stranger who roams the West dragging a coffin filled with chaos towards a destiny ruled by vengeance. Co-writer/director Sergio Corbucci (The Great Silence, Companeros) packs his landmark classic with indelible images, unforgettable performances, and some of the most shocking brutality of any "Spaghetti Western" ever made. This is the still controversial epic that defined a genre, launched a phenomenon and inspired over 50 unofficial sequels. This in the one and only Django!. This definitive edition of Django has been re-mastered from the original camera negative, recently discovered in a Rome vault untouched for over three decades. Also included for the first time is the optional Italian audio track featuring Franco Nero's own voice. Following two years of extensive restoration, Blue Underground is now proud to present the most stunning and complete version of Django you will ever see.

3.0 out of 5 stars One of the best, but Simon may not agree 28 Aug 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
After recently watching Sabata and Bullet For The General, this was next on my list of Spaghetti Westerns to watch...and I certainly left the best until last (Dollars Trilogy aside).

This is a great film with some amazing set-pieces (I won't add a spoiler, but the scene when Major Jackson's men come to town to kill him is brilliant. The characters are generally strong, and the plot doesn't pull any punches in terms of violence (but in my opinion never strays into the realms of bad taste).

The only thing wrong with this DVD is not the movie (which I would easily score 8/9 out of 10, but the quality of the transfer, which is pretty bad. Lots of noise, grain and artifacts. This is a shame and while elements of this are perhaps unavoidable with material this old, the recent US release on Blu Ray is (by all accounts) excellent in HD, so why they couldn't have released a better quality DVD I do not know.

For that reason I give this DVD release 7/10

5.0 out of 5 stars Django 16 Jun 2003
Format:VHS Tape
This is the best spaghetti western ever. It is dark and symbolic, with a cast of flawed but compelling characters, who are human in the fact that they are not completely explained and over-analysed. Django is a man, with a dark past who is not completely moral in his actions, yet he is likeable for his strength. This is an immensely watchable film, with a trully moving, action filled climax

5.0 out of 5 stars Django Django Django 29 Jun 2008
Format:DVD
Franco Nero stars are Django after this film there were over 50 unoffical sequales to Django.This spaghetti western gets rid of alot of the sand and dessert you see in other westerns all thats there is mud and thats one of the reasons this movie is so great it is very much like the Sergio Leone movies in style the big over the top quick draw,blood spirting in every angle.This movie was filmed the same time as For a few Dollars more which was being filmed not even a mile from each other you can see that the Clint Eastwood man with no name loner charcter.This film is one of the greatest westerns of all time it was banned in the uk for 25 year over the infamous cutting of the ear scene.Not many extras on the dvd a little intresting 13 minute documentry about the movie.Overall brilliant movie.

This film was banned in UK until 1993, why, one asks as there was more violence in Watership Down. Thank goodness Django Unchained wasn't treated the same way!!!!!!!!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great film! 15 Mar 2013
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I really enjoyed this film. One of the best spaghetti westerns that I've seen! For a 1966 film, it is surprisingly brutal in places. Some of the characters are deliciously cruel!
