Django è perfetto! Un classico!

This is a magnificent example of the spaghetti western genre. Dark, moody and mystical, as are the better films of this type. The Leone/Eastwood films remain the standard, but DJANGO is one heck of a cool film. Sergio Corbucci's direction and Franco Nero's performance combine to make this a true Euro-Western classic. Blue Underground's presentation is beautifully done, and they have included the option of viewing the film with the original Italian soundtrack, which is definitely the way to go for this one. They have also included a nice little "Uovo di Pasqua" on the Special Features menu page (hint: Django's coffin). If you like the "Dollars" trilogy (The Sergio Leone Anthology (A Fistful Of Dollars / For A Few Dollars More / The Good, The Bad And The Ugly / Duck, You Sucker)) then DJANGO is a must-have!

With great action, a great hero, and plenty of style to go around!

Django is a masterpiece of the spaghetti western genre. It may be based on A Fistful of Dollars, but it has so much of its own unique style that it distances itself far enough away to avoid being a ripoff. Instead of battling weapon and liquor smugglers, our hero, Django, battles Mexican bandits and the KKK! That's right. All while dragging a coffin behind him, for reasons unknown to someone who's never seen the film.

I actually like this one way more than A Fistful of Dollars. Franco Nero as Django is just as awesome as Clint Eastwood in any of his "Dollars" roles. The music also spectacular and just as good as anything Morricone ever did. If you've ever even HEARD of this film, then you should just flat out order it RIGHT NOW.

By the way, this DVD presentation is excellent, and while a few frames are dirty, it's still the best way to see this film and doesn't hamper it at all. The DVD includes English and Italian language tracks. Please see it in Italian with English subs. It's meant to be watched that way. It makes the movie even more unique and stylish.

Simple Story but Artistic!, Sergio Corbucci knows Well about Wild West!

I have watched this movie when I was young back in the 80s...Franco Nero is also my favourite Actor as same as Clint Eastwood. Famous Italian directors like Sergio Corbucci and Sergio Leone knows better about Wild West America. Django is one of the unique art film about a twisted atmosphere of guns, vengeange, fortune, violents at the ill feel remote-location of the West. A man who carries a coffin - a very memorable characteristic of Franco Nero as I always remember him Django rather than the story line of this movies. Nothing much special about the story but Django is part of my own favourite home movie collection! Very artistic, an Artform of the 60s Movie! February 10, 2008

One of the all time great spaghetti westerns

Sergio Corbucci's Django is a definite example of a spaghetti western classic. Our mysterious protagonist Django(Franco Nero) arrives to this lonely town. He drags a coffin behind him. We still don't know what's in the coffin. That's one of the mysteries of the character. We still don't know what are his motives. You just constantly ask, who is that guy ?
There are some great performances , great action ,and some pretty cool surprises in this picture. It's shot pretty well . There's alot of hand held camera used during the action sequences. You feel like your there almost , like you fall with the characters. I love that . I also recommend The HellBenders, Companeros, The Great Silence , and anything else
Corbucci you can find. 9/10
