Mate P Jackie Brown is a long and slow movie that becomes more intriguing and exciting by the minute. The characters are obviously very well-written. Louis is definitely my favourite as he is just so funny. The story takes time to get going, but when it does, it gets very intriguing. Then, I thought this was the kind of movie where I don't know whose side Jackie is on. Though I quickly realised that this wasn't the case and I was a little bit disappointed in that sense. The ending still had a surprise for me though. The dialogues are well-written, but I felt tired by just how long some dialogues were. Although that might have been because I watched the movie late at night. The directing is good, but so far this is my least favourite Tarantino movie. With all that said, I really liked it, but I think it was just too long. I don't think this story needed 140-150 minutes. All in all the first two acts of the film are too slow for my taste. The cinematography is great, there was a lot of creativity in that department and some of the editing had great creative ideas too. The sound design is my favourite aspect, I rarely look out for sound during first watches, but this stands out even though it's not action, sci-fi or fantasy. The soundtrack is awesome, but with Tarantino I never expect anything else. The acting performances are stellar. Samuel L. Jackson and Robert De Niro disappear into character, while everyone else is also great. Jackie Brown is my least favourite film from Tarantino so far, but that doesn't mean it's not good. In fact, it's really good. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/22/25 Full Review Audience Member What a boring movie. Only watched because of De Niro. Thought it would be good. Man, De Niro was a total bum in this movie, lol... Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/16/25 Full Review Eliseu M "Jackie Brown" shows a more mature and elegant Tarantino, with Pam Grier shining in the lead role. Slow-paced, but full of style and intelligence. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/08/25 Full Review marvin n talk talk talk ................ Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/03/25 Full Review Eric W. It’s Quentin Tarantino, folks. He’s a genius. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/13/25 Full Review Jeremiah C. One of Tarantino’s more underrated works, this story is not just an ode to blaxploitation films. It takes the best of those films and ratifies them with superb plot and dialogue writing. Anyone who thinks Tarantino doesn’t love and admire black artistry has never seen the care and reverence with which he constructed this art.
