Not One of My Favorite Leonard Adaptations for Film

Rating: Null/10 (23 July 2001)

Jackie Brown(1997) is a major disappointment following the brilliant and strange Pulp Fiction(1994). A huge plus for the film is the cast and their performances. A rare De Niro feature where he is not the center of attention in Jackie Brown(1997). Too eratic in story and some scenes. A average take on an Elmore Leonard movie compared to 52 Pick Up or Get Shorty. The one scene that I do enjoy is the sequence done with mutiple viewpoints ala, Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon(1951).
