	Jackie Brown Movie Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Jackie Brown is a highly anticipated feature film from Quentin Tarantino, whose last film was the huge hit Pulp Fiction.
		And perhaps the biggest flaw with Jackie Brown is the slow middle section in which the pace begins to drop.
		Jackie Brown is rated R for language, sex, violence, drug use, and some offensive remarks.

		Jackie is a flight attendant in her 40s who supplements her peanuts pay by smuggling money into the U.S. for a gun runner named Ordell Robbie (Samuel L. Jackson).
		Some of the best moments in "Jackie Brown" are when he simply allows his camera to watch her, as she's carried along a moving airport sidewalk while Bobby Womack's "Across 110th Street" plays on the soundtrack or simply as she's sitting enjoying a cigarette.
		The put-on quality in "Jackie Brown" didn't grate on me, perhaps because the material didn't originate with Tarantino, or maybe because the characters are all scamming one another, or maybe because the violence is quick and discreet (instead of drawn out and lingered over).

	Pam Grier: Jackie Brown - Movie
		And Jackie is a stewardess and she knew where the money was, so, now, the money is pretty much floating around.
		Jackie Brown a Quentin Tarantino film is one of those films that brings an assorment of good acting talent laced with rare but good 70 music and feroicus dialouge, the problem is they did not blend well together thus making the storyline long, boring and played out long before the credits roll.
		"Jackie Brown" has pacing, intelligence, laughs, atmosphere, and thrills -- none the least of which are in the utterly honest and often hilarious dialogue -- but mostly it has heart.

	Jackie Brown
		Jackie is busted for carrying $50,000 in cash into the country by a miscast Michael Keaton as an ATF officer, and she agrees to assist the police with their efforts to bust Ordell.
		Jackie Brown is a film which grew on me as it went on.
		Jackie Brown also has several trademark tools of the Quentin Tarantino school of filmmaking; in particular one sequence is shown three times, from three different perspectives, a favourite technique of his.

	JACKIE BROWN movie review with photos
		The Leonard-Tarantino match is a marriage made in movie heaven; Jackie Brown is an effervescent crime tale in which the filmmaker's trademark dialogue, camera work and musical choices all blend marvelously with the author's well-defined characters and goofball plotting.

		Jackie is just one of several women Ordell employs to run his errands.

	Jackie Brown Movie Review
		"Jackie Brown," which is the name of the protagonist changed a bit to be an homage to that old Pam Grier classic "Foxy Brown," is a simple story, made complex by the characters.
		Even Jackie being caught by the police was justified since one of the less-intelligent characters gave her away.
		Here's a woman who's had some good things happen to her (the whole blaxploitation thing in real life), but is stuck doing a crap thankless job (flight stewardess in the movie; bad films in real life), and has a chance to get away rich (the half-a-million in the movie; the movie in real life).

	Jackie Brown Movie Review
		"Jackie Brown" is the latest Leonard adaptation, based on 1995's best-selling "Rum Punch", a novel with quirky characters, double-crosses, and off-kilter humor-- perfectly matched for the cinematic stylings of Hollywood badboy director Quentin Tarantino.
		The title character, Jackie Brown (Pam Grier) is a forty-four year old airline stewardess with a crappy job on a third-rate Mexican airline.
		However, before the sly arms dealer can cap her, Jackie turns the tables and 'convinces' Ordell to go along with a complicated scheme that will allow him to bring his half-million into the country while allowing Jackie to fulfill her obligations to the Feds.

	FILM REVIEW -- Tarantino's Latest Caper / Funky `Jackie Brown' loses velocity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Had ``Jackie Brown'' been released at the tail end of Quentinmania, back when he was Orson Welles Jr., everybody would have been disappointed.
		``Jackie Brown'' is essentially a caper movie, in which Jackie and her smitten bail bondsman (Robert Forster) set out to steal half a million dollars from Ordell right under the noses of federal officers.
		Scene by scene, ``Jackie Brown'' is amusing, but after two hours, it seems sluggish, and at that point still has a half-hour to go.

		Jackie, although 44 and smart, works as an underpaid flight attendant for the world's worst airline because a criminal conviction in the past makes her virtually unemployable.
		Jackie Brown (1997) is the DVD release of the month, and I am happy to report that it was worth waiting almost 5 years for.
		means the movie is not good enough to win you over if you hate the genre, but is good enough to do so if you have an open mind about this type of film.

	Jackie Brown
		If Jackie Brown seems a trifle over-baked, it may be only that its two-and-a-half hour running time is ill-suited to the quick-and-dirty scamming and dealmaking that turns the plot.
		Jackie Brown's first act is a motormouthed marvel of exposition.
		Beaumont winds up dead, and Jackie has good reason to believe that she'll be next -- unless, that is, she can figure out a way to keep Ordell from crossing her long enough so she can figure out a way to cross him.

	Amazon.co.uk: Jackie Brown [1998]: DVD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		This movie is a slow, decaffeinated story of six characters glued to a half million dollars brought illegally into the country.
		Tarantino changed the race of Jackie and Ordell, a move that means little except that it allows Tarantino to heap on fl culture and language, something he has a gift and passion for.
		But by the time he made "Jackie Brown", the man already knew that EVERYBODY was "doing Tarrantino." So he opted to make a good movie instead.

	filmcritic.com Movie Review: Jackie Brown
		Jackie Brown is a potboiler, and a fairly good one at that, but those looking for slam-bang Tarantino action like that seen in Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs will be disappointed, and sorely so.
		Jackie is more of a mood piece than a thrill ride, with vaguely retro sets and extremely retro stars.
		Much like Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown also gets the double-disc DVD treatment this week, with a second disc of extras (though not as many as on the Pulp set).

	JoBlo's Movie Club - Jackie Brown
		This movie is one that, for me, felt like an old vintage crime flick (possibly a made for TV pilot) that would air during the weekends when I was growing up.
		I don't think JACKIE BROWN is as good a film as PULP FICTION, but it excels on a different plane of filmmaking.
		"Jackie Brown" is a far superior film to "Pulp Fiction," though not as influential.

		And the movie is littered with occasional Tarantino trademarks: witty dialogue, unexpected gunfire, '70s pop tunes, and close-ups of womens' bare feet.
		Jackie Brown's lone "innovation" is its presentation of a crucial sequence from three different perspectives.
		Jackie passes Ordell's test, however, and soon the two of them are plotting a way to smuggle $500,000 of Ordell's money into the United States without tipping off the Feds.

		Quentin Tarantino’s Jackie Brown borrows far less from the blaxploitation films of the ’70s then you might have imagined, given the title and promo graphics of the movie.
		As Jackie Brown, she gets busted by an ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms) agent played by Michael Keaton and an LA cop (Michael Bowen) while running money back from Mexico for Ordell Robbie.
		Jackie Brown opens with Bobby Womack’s powerful “Across 110th Street” and then treats us to no shortage of goodies at numerous key moments in the story.

	Jackie Brown Movie Review
		JACKIE BROWN stars Pam Grier, the "Blaxploitation" heroine from the 1970's, who is likely to make a big comeback thanks to her role as the title character.
		Trouble arises when Jackie is stopped by ATF agent Ray Nicolet (Michael Keaton) and taken into custody for possession of narcotics, as well as having more money than is allowed in an airport without being claimed.
		Max's obvious fondness for Jackie will become a major benefactor in her fight to beat both sides of the system, and Forster plays him with subtle charm that adds depth to unbrewed romance.

	Movie Review: Jackie Brown
		Pam Grier, who was a big star in the '70s, plays Jackie Brown, an airline stewardess who is trying to scam Jackson out of his money.
		"Jackie Brown" is violent but entertaining and makes the point that your life is more important than money.
		This movie is rated R. All those under 17 must be accompanied by an adult.
