Django

Despite its promising premise and impressive production values, Django (2023) falls short due to the lackluster performances of its cast. While the series boasts a talented ensemble, their delivery is wooden and uninspired, failing to bring life to their characters or engage the audience. Despite the best efforts of the writers and directors, the subpar acting ultimately undermines the series' potential, making it difficult to recommend to viewers specially fans of the original movies. Just count the times that the actors rais their heads slowly to express the scene it was hinching and irritating.

Sure there were some elements of previous versions but It's nothing compared to the original Django movies (Between 1966 and 2012). Where Django had a sad and impenetrable face.

This cowboy was invisible.

I barely watched more than half of the first episode for one very simple reason, that being, I couldn't see what was going on. The grading, brightness and contrast is so dark, even in sequences that are supposed to be under bright sunshine, you can't see what's going on. You can't see faces to tell what expression they have. You can't see buildings or their surroundings. You can't see anything. I'm watching on a 65" OLED and it's just a dark smear across the screen with a vague flickering of candlelight. It could be the greatest series ever filmed, but not being able to see what's actually going on in the scenes spoils any chance of enjoyment. Hard pass from me as a result.

Noomi rapace actually does suck in her role, what was she thinking?, absolute terrible 'accent', could she really not know this?, is she really this vacuous?, I guess!, many others have said the scenes are too dark, very true, in the dark scenes some of the cast cannot be seen, ?, the writer and the director are terrible, it's just not worthy of watching, kind of a fever dream, funny, the names of those involved in writing and directing seem to be Italian, is this a satire of the old spaghetti westerns?, is that it?, I just gave up in the middle of episode two, skip this disaster of a dumb show.

Actually, I awarded this series a total of eight stars but I chose to use white ones for the last six as an homage to art.

If world famous paintings like "Black Cat at Midnight in a Coal Bin" tickles your fancy then you'll not want to miss a riveting second of this attempt at art. For me, however, I don't think I should have to sit in a completely dark room and strain my eyes to watch a made for TV series.

Once again the choice to record in visible light (because, well, we can now) was chosen over allowing the audience the opportunity to actually be able to follow the story instead of needing to guess who that shadow actually is and what is he (or she) doing. I threw in the towel after, roughly, fifteen minutes of this and moved on to something else.

Unbelievably this series is actually getting worse as it goes on, 2 episodes in and it's pretty awful, the accents are all over the place, no 2 people have the same accent, some are so very bad can't even distinguish what they are saying, the plot line is all over the place, just rubbish.there is no Franco Nero Django in this one, this Django can barely act, and there are 10 episodes of this, not entirely sure where it can go really do, unless the 3rd episode is absolutely spectacular im afraid I won't be watching the rest of it. I want to see a remake of the Franco Nero version, nothing fancy no flashing lights, no metaphorical bull just a gritty grimy plot with Django ripping up his machine gun in a coffin. Done. Overall a poor effort. Well 3 episode and god damn man it's just getting more boring, WHERE THE HELL IS THE STORY LINE. Just flicking between scenes and moments in time with no context or continuity, Django is supposed to be this hard core cowboy, he's not even aloud to have his own gun, it's just boring pointless dialogue with no direction, seems to me this is 9 episodes longer than it should have been.
