Quentin Tarantino is clearly finding it difficult to follow the phenomenal success of "Reservoir Dogs" and "Pulp Fiction", which made him the hottest writer-director of his generation. In the six years since then this is the only time that he has returned to the directors chair. ...( read more)
It's on secret that Tarantino is a huge Exploitation/Sexploitation/Blaxploitation fan but this is quite a poor effort in trying to capture the style of that genre. The cast are also a little on the slack side, Jackson, Grier and Forster are good, but they've all been better. It i...( read more)

The worst tarantino film to date,.and as i said worst,i mean worst of the BEST!! Damn,you really are my new kubrick,it appears to me you can't done something wrong!!

Well I certainly imagin Boddha1nirvana, that you were not dissappointed??? Another amazing role for BOTH Robert DeNiro & Samuel L. Jackson...based on the book Rum Punch written by Elmore Leonard. [thank you for identifying this book title, JohnChristie & GaryStev!] I searched on www. goodreads.com & Quentin Tarantino (Director) wrote this screenplay. Bridget Fonda is quite the tease in this flick!! This much I remember about it (when it came out)..

Being a Tarantino flick and all, I'm sure it won't.
I'm just saying..
