Is Jackie Brown QT's Most Underrated Film

[Cherry Brigand]

I hated it when I saw it in the theater, but having watched it again twice in the last six years, I have to say it is tight from start to finish. Good writing, great acting, really strong story. Also probably Samuel L's best performance.

Thoughts?

 

[JSN]

It's definitely a good ass movie. Perhaps a bit forgotten because it's more Elmore Leonard's voice than his I guess.

 

[Headkicktoleg]

Absolutely. Most people don't even know about it

 

[milliniar]

Yep

 

[FierceRedBelt]

I'd rate it as one of his best.

Way better than anything he's done post Kill Bill.

 

[Peteyandjia]

 

[Cubo de Sangre]

Didn't like it at the time. Never revisited it.

 

[ithinktheymad]

It is. Sam showed a bit of range in that one.

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

Julius was a better character and the film was ok. Haven't watched it in many years but just now might

 

[Oeshon]

best is Django. fucking love that movie.

 

[LATEXXX COMMANDO]

Without question.

Behind Inglorious, it's second best in replay value for me out of all his films.

 

[Jack Reacheround]

It is definitely underrated. It probably is the most underrated. I can’t think of a better movie of his that people talk about less.

 

[LuchaBear]

 

[TheRuthlessOne]

I wrote a paper on it

Its alright

 

[Bobby Boulders]

I crack up every time I see Deniro kill Fonda.

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

This.

If anything, Jackie Brown is overrated because people bring it up all the time and it fucking sucks.

 

[armbarforhire]

If by underrated you mean bad , then yes.

 

[Ares Black]

Quentin Tarantino is overrated AF but Jackie Brown is some of his best work.

 

[moreorless87]

I would say actually Hateful Eight is his most underrated film, I think a strong argument that its his best work since the 90's yet hasn't really earny as much praise as Django and Basterds.

Watching this as a kid got me into black chicks swear to god.

Amazing film. One of my top 10 for sure.
