Critic Reviews

Budd Wilkins

In a genre known for endless knock-offs, a trend that includes Django’s 30-plus sequels, Corbucci’s film is notable not only for the artistry of its construction, but also for the underlying anger that fuels its political agenda. Read full review

Staff (Not Credited)

Funny, visceral, bloody, no-nonsense entertainment with a touch of class. Read full review

Empire Kim Newman

The story isn't as strong as either Leone or Corbucci's best work, but the iconic imagery and solid central performance from Nero make it easy to see why this became a worldwide success. Read full review

Jerry Renshaw

The first in a series of popular Django movies helped define the Italian tradition of spaghetti Westerns with a tormented antihero, extreme, sadistic levels of violence, and loud, heroic music. Read full review

Keith Phipps

The action that follows doesn't stray too far from formula, nor does it come close to Leone's film, but it's stylishly entertaining enough to serve as a passable time-filler, particularly when its second-rate hero takes to wielding an oversized (and anachronistic) handheld machine gun.

Django is honestly a great spaghetti western and it's actually a great movie as well. The movie's got a pretty interesting story, which is set on the USA-Mexican border straight after the civil war.

We get introduced to Django (Franco Nero) who's an ex-union soldier, who wants his vengeance on the Ku Klux Klan.

The movie's acting from Franco Nero is actually pretty decent but apart from that, the rest of the actors/actress acting throughout this movie is very over the top.

Also, the dialogue which is given from each character throughout this movie is good but it's nothing special or amazing.

The pacing throughout this movie is alright. It could be a bit better for the builds up, which end up happening throughout this movie.

Finally, the action sequences throughout this movie are very graphic and very clever and they're also very well done. Especially that one at the end, that one's honestly class.

Overall, Django is honestly a great spaghetti western movie. It's got a pretty interesting story, some decent acting, some good dialogue, very graphic and very clever action sequences throughout.… Expand

An allright western action film that should please fans of the genre. It's not that special but not that bad. Besides this is one of the top spaghetti western films.
