This was a great movie. Unlike his other movies where the action and violence is superfluous and a bit shocking, this movie really shows his skills as a director. The violence is turned down (comparatively) but it surprisingly add more suspense. The wordplay, interactions and tension between all the characters is where this movies shines. Everyone does a stellar job. No character is over played and all feel to fit their roles like gloves. They are real people with real problems and real consequences. And the soundtrack adds to the atmosphere, it makes you think you are watching a 90's blaxploitation flick.

Maybe my least favorite Tarantino movie, except for Death Proof, but after watching it a few times over the years, it has grown on me a bit. It has little of the uniqueness of his other movies, but it has a good story and a great cast.

This feels a little like Pulp Fiction light but without as much violence. It's not a bad thing but it feels a little familiar. Still there is everything I love about Tarantino movies, great characters, great dialogue, great music, great cinematography. It's a great movie, just not one of Tarantino's standouts.

Outstanding, no two ways about it. 'Jackie Brown' makes for a great watch, I personally found the pacing excellent; which is obviously important for a 2hr 30min+ production. The cast knock it out the park, while the story is riveting. It's worthy of the hype, one of Quentin Tarantino's best no doubt. Pam Grier is fantastic as the titular character, Samuel L. Jackson is quality as well - the scenes that those two share are top notch. Robert Forster plays a much larger part than I was expecting at the beginning, which is only a massive plus as he gives a great performance. You also have the likes of Michael Keaton, Chris Tucker and Robert De Niro involved - I actually would've like to have seen De Niro used more meaningfully. Not much more needs to be said, I'd only be repeating what everyone else has positively said about this. It's brilliant.

This film is the perfect example of the difference between a good movie and what people have come to believe to be good movies.

In a nutshell, the movie is about [spoiler]a money transfer and some overt double-crossing[/spoiler]. If you watched this film and think that sums up the movie you didn& More

A Tarantino movie for people who don’t like Tarantino. It still references the typical cheap trash that inspires most of his work (this movie sees him really tipping his hat to the blaxploitation genre), but the dialogue is considerably less stylized or quotable, there are almost no pop culture re More

"Jackie Brown" is a film directed by Quentin Tarantino and released in 1997. This movie is based on the novel "Rum Punch" by Elmore Leonard.

I think Jackie Brown is very good. This movie is in the style of crime and thriller and it portrays a fascinating and complex story in a remarkable way.

Samuel L. Jackson really steals the show here as the petty criminal "Ordell". He sells guns - gradually accumulating a small fortune which he smuggles in from Mexico using the services of the eponymous air stewardess (Pam Grier). When his well oiled machine starts to splutter, he avails himself of b More
