In Reply to: Re: Is "Reservoir Dogs" Tarantino's best flick? posted by RGA on April 28, 2004 at 20:25:15:
Jackie Brown ain't far behind.
Who else has the imagination or the skill to write and film the scene in the pawn shop? Or the lead-up to it? Or the use of the 'cycle, after it?
And all that cleverness and complexity in one scene---among many just as intriguing!
Follow Ups:
I liked Jackie Brown more than Dogs as well.SO far out of 5 ------ 3 recommended.
Pulp Fiction ***** Number 2 on my list of best films of the 1990s.
Jackie Brown ***1/2 (Made the top ten for its year).
Kill Bill Vol. 1. ***1/2
Reservoir Dogs **1/2
True Romance (Sorta Counts) **1/2
From Dusc Till Dawn **
Four Rooms *I'm not quite convinced of Tarantino based off of one lone masterpiece - that said I'm always excited to see what he's going to make - and that is rare. And in his defense topping Pulp Fiction is very tough for him or anyone else working today to do. Heck for that matter after watching prized classics - it's doubtful I'll see anything from yesteryear that will best it. Citizen Kane and Casablanca and 8 & 1/2 are weaker films IMO so what's left?

might be prudent to see the films under discussion.
The pawn shop scene, obviously, was in "Pulp Fiction."

And it's quite enjoyable.
