Reviews

freydis-e After wasting 90 minutes watching this, I must be mad doing a review, but there are only seven others and one of them gives it a ten rating. Nice that the guy enjoyed it but can he not see that "A Fistful of Dollars", say, is maybe just a little bit better? Or does his amp go up to 11? Oh well, if I save one person from watching this, it will all be worthwhile.I suggest reading the one critic review, which gives more than you need to know of the minimal excuse for a plot and points out that there's nothing remarkable here, either good or bad. That's indeed the main impression – just nothing. But it's worse than that – I swear no-one involved in making this even cared. The acting is nonexistent – only Django's sister and director Mulargia as a bad guy seem even to be trying. And OMG, the plot! We open with the murder of Django's father. Django shows up and on hearing this dreadful news, shows no emotion – but then he never does, whether because he's too tough for such trivia as feelings or, more likely, he knows he can't act so why bother to try? Revenge for a murdered father – the ultimate plot-driver in this macho world, but our hero gets that revenge 15 minutes in and the rest of the movie is about who gets some bag of money. So superior is our Django that no opponent or combination of opponents pose the least threat and the fight-scenes have no interest at all. In fact he has only one possible weakness – the sister. So what does he do? Of course – leaves her unguarded where all the bad guys know she is and goes to sit in the saloon doing nothing. And what happens next? Well, I wouldn't want to, er, spoil it for you (?!?) The stuff the bad guys do makes no more sense. None of them go after the money, instead riding around killing one another off for reasons no-one ever bothers to explain. Had Django not showed up at all, it seems the outcome would have been much the same. If only he hadn't – then no-one would have had to watch this nonsense.
Bezenby This film should really be called Wait Django…just wait because that's what he does for most of the film! Periodically some guys turn up to be shot but it's all about the waiting.Y'see, Django (this time played by Ivan "I'm a man, not a fish" Rassimov) is out for revenge after some bandits double cross his dad, steal his dad's money, then steal the money from themselves, then get themselves killed by another guy who steals his dad's money, then hides in a hotel with Django outside while some other guys come to Django's house and are all like 'where's Django at?', who then get themselves killed so some other guys turn up asking "Where's those guys at who were asking where Django's at?" and so on and so forth until just about everyone ends up dead.Ivan and Rada Rassimov really look alike, eh? Never noticed that before. This one at least tries to be different, but in a rather uneventful way that must have saved a fortune on locations –Seriously, there's like four different locations here – Django's house, Bad guy number one's house, the village where the guy hides out, and bad guy number two's ranch. That's it! Thrown in a comic drunk guy, a fat sidekick and a whole lot of doing nothing and there's your film.Good 'nervously tapping a silver dollar on a table' action though
Leofwine_draca DON'T WAIT, DJANGO...SHOOT! is a lame attempt to jump onto the Django bandwagon, and it's obvious from the outset that the main character's name has merely been changed to Django in post production in order to cash in on the success of the Franco Nero movie. It's nothing like a Django film at all, the titular character doesn't even wear the trademark clothing, and is instead a standard vengeance-seeking gunslinger.The film opens as an elderly man is gunned down by a gang of Mexican cut-throats, leaving his grown up son and daughter seeking revenge for the crime. This revenge takes an inordinately long time to play out, with the running time interspersed with routine intrigue and some very unexciting shoot-outs.One of the most interesting things about the production, for me, is the presence of Ivan Rassimov in the leading role. Rassimov is well known for his appearances in '70s movies like DEEP RIVER SAVAGES and it's fun to watching him play against his real-life sister, Rada, but he doesn't make much of an impression in this one. Pedro Sanchez has a supporting role and plays the usual larger-than-life character. The truth is that nobody's on fire here, particularly director Edoardo Mulargia who churned out at least a dozen of these cut-price spaghetti westerns.
chaos-rampant Directod Eduardo Mulargio (as Edward G. Muller!) churned out a bunch of cheapie spaghetti westerns in the genre's heyday in the late 60's to early 70's. Don't Wait Django, Shoot is one of them, with Ivan Rassimov (as Sean Todd - the blue-eyed character actor mostly known for his roles as villain and psychopathic killer in gialli) in the role of Django Foster (he's got a surname too this go around!) trying to avenge the death of his father by a bunch of Mexican cut-throat extras with greasy faces. The production values are as low as you'd expect from a Django clone probably made in a week to turn in a quick buck, there's lots of non-acting going on, the dialogue is very poor and the script seems to have been conceived in one day and written in another. Entire scenes seem to exist for no other reason than to communicate a single line and the gunfighting is dime a dozen. The movie looks like it was shot 15 minutes from Rome instead of Arizona, Sonora or wherever it's suppose to take place. There are dozens more well made, more interesting, more entertaining spaghetti westerns out there and I'm not even talking about the A-list pictures of Leone, Corbucci or Sollima. This is a third-tier quickie at best and just not a good movie.
