Tarantino

After I got back from The Quiet American last night, I decided watch Jackie Brown , which I've been meaning to watch for around for a month ( Netflix allows you to keep movies for as long as you want). I've really enjoyed the other Quentin Tarantino films that I've seen (Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs), so I had had high hopes for Jackie Brown. I would rate it below Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs. It was a bit too long, and some of the unusual aspects of Tarantino's style were not as novel as when I saw Pulp Fiction for the first time. Still, that's not much of a slight, as it was easily one of the best movies I have seen recently.

Tarantino's next film, Kill Bill , looks very unique in a way that I like. It appears to be stylized violence taken to the extreme. Plus, Uma Thurman is hot. :-)
