    Tarantino’s 1st adaptation – good choice; his style blends nicely with Leonard’s. As follow-up to Pulp Fiction favors well; more breezy fun.

    Sonnenfeld goes from one of best cinematographers to one of best directors with quick, sharp delivery of the best Elmore Leonard adaptation.

    Brilliant. J-Lo missed her true calling; owns this role. Characters fantastic, dialogue sizzles; amazingly gifted actors doing their thing.

    Originally reviewed on Flixster:

    This movie is brilliant. Always stop flipping when I come across it. Must have seen the 2nd hour twenty times. Jennifer Lopez really missed her true calling. She really owns this role. every relationship in this movie is fantastic. The dialogue sizzled and the cast is a collection of truly gifted actors at the top of their game.
