FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

e-70733 This film is basically a traditional love story. Except for the reference of the popular music element, Tarantino's personal style is not obvious. And as for the completeness of the film itself, due to some branches of the story are not telling advisably and smoothly, therefore, the length of the film is too long, and its rhythm is somewhat sluggish. If the film can be simplify some, completely give up those unnecessary dialogue with Tarantino's personal style that looks like imposed by himself, made it into a 120 - minute film, it will turn into a better entertaining story.

persianlax When I first watched this movie I had no idea what it would have in store, from the beginning with Pam Grier walking in the airport with the blue wall behind here and some funky soul I knew this was going to be good. Wow I was right, what this movie does is tell a very real story, at least to the viewers. It seems so authentic and rightly so, the actors and actresses and the good writing in it make it just the right amount of intensiveness and also builds the characters, Max Cherry who was nominated for Grammy for this is a great example. When he buys a copy of the Delfonics you knew he was in love. How Jackie Brown plays everyone her realism and occasional Mother F Word Please made you so amazed by her. The plot twist at the end is perfect and Ordell Robbie is one of my favorite Samuel L Jackson Characters! When Jackie is in the dressing room and changing the money from the bag to another and the music is playing and speeding up and the camera zooms in more and more you feel the excitement . There are so many good quotes in this movie and the soundtrack is legendary!

Predrag Tarantino is able to make great movies no matter what, and this movie is another testament to why I love this guys movies. Sure, he isn't entirely original, but his movies are entertaining, and you don't need to understand such hopelessly trivial "deep" themes to understand. The reason you should watch movies is the entertainment value, that's what matters so much. Themes are there in real life, so you really don't need them in movies. Sure, themes and social commentary make good movies, but liking movies even though they have a lack of meaning doesn't (of course, it helps to know, however, many mindless movies are actually more boring than movies with subtle meaning). Just to be sure, Jackie Brown is a bit restrained but still has the Tarantino trademarks that we all know and love.Bridget Fonda is so absolutely perfect as gun-runner Samuel L. Jackson's sassy "surfer chick" that you are convinced that this is who Bridget Fonda really is. Robert De Niro was given a long leash in his portrayal of a dim-witted, recently-paroled bank robber (not exactly a typecast for him... and he nails it. And the other characters that spice up the plot are all well-formed and well-acted. But it's the improbable relationship between Jackie and Max that grabs you and won't let you go. Like a swirling, cool, evening fog by the waterfront on a steamy, summer evening, it is hard to define and even harder to grasp, but you know you like it. Music and dialogue carry this movie and are the two ingredients that make it such a pleasure to take in. The film's been described as "slow-moving," but people who say that don't realize that the pace is purposefully done slow so one can enjoy each characters' interactions. Sam Jackson's character, for as messed up as he is, is a piece of art. Charismatic dialogue. Jackie Brown is the Tarantino film that mostly goes over lot's of people's heads, but it is no less entertaining in many ways (although it's not as good as Pulp Fiction, obviously). Don't be fooled by Jackie Brown's different approach and black sheep persona of the Tarantino canon, it's just one of his charms that his movies seem to be black sheeps when compared to certain others. In any case, ignoring this fine work would be kind of futile.Overall rating: 8 out of 10.

Tweekums Gun dealer Ordell Robbie has half a million dollars; the problem is that the money is in Mexico and he needs it moved to Los Angeles. To this end stewardess Jackie Brown is bringing it in $50,000 at a time; all is going well until she is arrested with the money and a small quantity of cocaine. Ordell goes to bail bondsman Max Cherry and gets her out of jail… if he is to use her to get the rest of the money out of Mexico the police will have to let Jackie return to work. To persuade them she tells them that she will help them get Ordell… is she playing them, Ordell or both?.This, Quentin Tarantino's third film, feels different to his others despite the familiar themes; this is probably because it is based on a book by Elmore Leonard rather than being an original story. This is not a problem though; it is the sort of film Tarantino's fans should enjoy but also one that can be enjoyed by those who are less keen on his other works. The story manages to be tense and at times shocking but it also has moments of humour. The cast does a fine job; Pam Greer is great as the eponymous Jackie Brown and Samuel Jackson is equally good as Ordell; a character who is more likable than one might expect given that he is a murderer and a gun smuggler. They are ably supported by a cast that includes Robert De Nero, Bridget Fonda, Michael Keaton and Robert Forster. Overall I'd say this is well worth watching; assuming you aren't put off by the amount of swearing.
