Once again, Quentin Tarantino proves why he is arguably the best screen writer in Hollywood. Although the story behind 'Jackie Brown' was adapted from an Elmore Leonard novel, Tarantino uses the already existing characters to his advantage, capitalizing on their traits and personalities to spew forth Tarnatino-like dialogue.

This is the type of crime film that should please any fan of the genre: it's very detailed, possesses excellent dialogue, and has an intricate plot that makes sitting through the 2 1/2 hr. film well worth the wait.

'Jackie Brown' is a gritty, straightforward film that packs a punch and is highly recommended.
