Brilliant Tarantino!

Rating: 9/10 (14 February 2013)

I have never seen a Quentin Taratino movie that I have yet hated. All his movies are filled with witty dialog, a great cast, and a well-written script. That is no exception for this movie, Jackie Brown. This wonderful film is actually one of his underrated films. When people talk Quentin, they always talk about Pulp Fiction or Inglourious Basterds never this film. This is a gritty crime film that is actually worth watching just for the dialog alone.
Jackie Brown is about how six different people could end up with a lot of money if they are the first to get it. We have a shady gun salesman, a lonely jail bond guy, a no-nonsense airline clerk, a coke-happy girl, an honest cop, and another shady guy just released from jail after serving time for bank robbery.
What is always good about Quentin is that he knows how to cast his movies. That proves to be no exception here. I just loved the main cast and their personalities. If I had to choose, I would have picked Samuel L. Jackson as my favorite character in this film. I'm happy to say that this film also resurrected Pam Grier's career and got Robert Forster recognized by the Academy.
Overall, this is almost the perfect Quentin film. It has the well-written dialog and the great chemistry between the actors. This film reminded me of Pulp Fiction style-wise, but it has a whole new tone to it. I rate this film 9/10.
