loved it

Rating: 9/10 (12 May 2006)

I have to admit that I had never seen a Quentin Tarantino film until recently. I saw him on Howard Stern and thought he was kind of fascinating so when Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction came on cable a few years ago, I watched them. Then I saw Kill Bill volume 1. The last one that I saw was Jackie Brown and liked it better than the others. The fact that so many great actors were in it, combined with me being in my mid 50's and remembering the movie the Sting so well may have had something to do with it. I have probably seen it four or 5 times on TV and is one of the few movies that I purchased the DVD. I am just a regular working guy and definitely not a critic but have recommended this to several people and all have loved it. All the actors do superb jobs. I think 30 years from now that people will still be watching it and finding it as enjoyable as they do now. One thing that I noticed that nobody put in the goofs was the age that Max was supposed to be. He said that he was 56 but when he showed Jackie his id, I believe that he was born in 1948, possibly a year or two earlier. At the time the movie was made, that would have put him in his late 40's.
