Solid and entertaining

Rating: 8/10 (17 June 2007)

It almost feels like Jackie Brown was made before Pulp Fiction. It feels like you are watching a young Tarantino movie, a less developed director. Don't get me wrong, its a very good movie, good acting, good story, the script is nicely put together. It just didn't pack quite the same punch as Pulp Fiction. I'd say its below reservoir dogs and pulp fiction on the list of Tarantino movies but better than the kill bill series. But any Tarantino fan should get this movie, and fan of a good, old-fashioned, fun caper movie. Samuel L. Jackson has a very cool character with a few memorable lines and scenes, and robert deniro adds a nice little flavor to the movie. All in all, not tarantinos best work, but definitely a good movie. 8 out of 10 from me,
