Jackie Brown

Currently on Film 4.

First time I saw it I didn't rate it at all, but have seen it a few times since and it really is a good film. Cracking performances from Pam Grier (I would!) and Robert Forster, with Samuel L Jackson being ... er ... Samuel L Jackson!

Some cracking songs on the soundtrack too, even though dat ting ain't normally my bag.

Anyone else?

    Sometimes, Off_it, I think you and me were separated at birth.

    I love Jackie Brown - I think its Tarantino's second best film after Reservoir Dogs. I also share your Pam Grier fetish too - she is f***ing mint. And, to top it all off, the soundtracks is awesome too.

    I'll stop now, in case I sound like an Off_it fanboi...

    I love pretty much everything by Tarrantino, least fave would probably be Kill Bill vol 2, even then that's a fairly decent film.
  • colthe3rdcolthe3rd
    KB2 was my fave out of the 2. Agreed about the opening tune, Across 110th street isn't it? Absolutely brilliant track.

    An even better movie with a killer sound track American Gangster...Top draw.

    That's OK - you're allowed to be wrong.

    Great film, got it on dvd a few years ago.

    I've got the orignal soundtrack lp (Roy Ayers), which is supposed to worth a few quid.

    I make you right, should've said it was nothing special, crap was a tad harsh.

    My favourite film, not too sure why, bought the vinyl though too as the songs are belters.
  • AddicksAddictAddicksAddict
    I didn't rate it much when I saw it so perhaps it's time for a re-watch.

    Likewise - went to see it at the Cinema and we left 40 mins in.

    good movie .. 'when you absolutely must, positively clear the room, nothing does the job better than an AK47' .. I paraphrase the naughty Samuel L Jackson character .. one movie where Tarantino does not get too over ambitious

    Who's that?

    Beaumont

    Beaumont?

    An employee I had to let go.

    Great film. Equally great soundtrack.

    It probably is more style over substance but it is great style.
