On balance, though, Django Unchained is fine entertainment, full of memorable
performances (Waltz is excellent), great
cameos by personalities forgotten by everyone except Tarantino (e.g. Lee Horsley, TV's Matt Houston back in the»80s; Franco Nero, the original Django in the 1966 movie), and crackerjack set - pieces (the sequence with Don Johnson's Big Daddy leading a charge of bumbling racists is pure
comic gold).
