Sluggish

Rating: 2/10 (29 September 1998)

I lost interest after 1 1/2 hours.It dragged, and this being Tarantino & Elmore Leonard, I waited patiently to no avail, while enjoying Pam Grier. Robert De Niro comes from The Downturned Mouth School Of Acting. And what's with Samuel Jackson's grotesque wig? "Get Shorty", another Elmore Leonard story, snapped, crackled & popped - it was fun from frame one and it had no payoff either, but who cares? It was delicious all the way - saw it three times. Tarantino writes the best dialogue, but apparently not here - why try to improve on Elmore Leonard?
