Good second attempt for Tarantino.

Rating: Null/10 (30 June 1999)

This is a really good film, let me just start that way. I think that, for everyone who liked Pulp Fiction's story telling and the way the film went about it, without a three-act screenplay, then this is the film you will enjoy. I agree with the one other person who I read, this film does not have any of the flash of Pulp Fiction. It does not have the flashy, catchy soundtrack that Pulp Fiction had, nor does it have the great lighting that made me think the sets were a little hot.
What Jackie Brown does have, though, is some very good dialogue. Not surprising considering this WAS a Elmore Leonard book with Tarantino doing the scripting. Both men have quite a talent for what they do. It is also clear, I think someone already brought this up, that Tarantino loves what he does, sometimes a little too much. Some of the shots could have been either edited out or trimmed a little, but, hey, some people might like it this way. I would have edited out some things, though.
Watch the movie, though, and get out of it what YOU can.
