just watched "Jackie Brown", which was the last Tarantino flick that I still had to watch. I believe QT himself said that this is a "smaller" work than "Pulp Fiction", but the hype must've been so huge at that time that "Jackie Brown" couldn't keep up with half of it. my opinion is that it's only 1/4 of an hour too long. okay, half an hour. but that's what I think of 2/3 of the movies I see that run longer than 120 minutes. the acting and the characters and of course the dialogues are all great and I don't have no problems with slow-paced movies, so I have to say I liked it.
