Is Jackie Brown Tarantino's finest film?

I know that Pulp Fiction and the Kill Bill films are more critically acclaimed but JB is easily his most watchable film. Great soundtrack plus Robert De Niro's last great acting performance. Top notch acting by Michael Keaton, Samuel L Jackson, Pam Grier and Robert Forster. The scene where Jackson's character shoots De Niro's character is one for the time capsule.

It’s probably my second favorite Tarantino film (after pulp fiction), but PF is much better

Watched this a few years ago and actually am watching this now on my IPad when I work out and had this thought earlier , and it's definitely top 3 for me.
The dialogue flows well to me unlike Inglorious Bastards or Hateful 8 where it feels like a chore to watch some scenes

I think it’s his best. It’s my favorite, hands down.

Pulp Fiction is his best by a large margin

Movie came out almost 20 years ago. sorry to ruin it for you.

I always wanted to know what QT's career would have looked like if he made more serious movies. Jackie Brown is the closest we might ever get. Easily his most mature movie.

Pulp Fiction is clearly his best imo

Pulp Fiction is absolutely his masterpiece. All of his movies after that, fairly or not, will always be compared to it.

Pulp Fiction s biggest flaw is QT in a bathrobe bitching out 2 cold stone killers worrying about his broad coming home. Kinda ruins the film for me.

Not really a comparable "Tarantino film" since he did not direct. But this is my favorite movie maybe ever. It's perfect.

One reason people kind of knock Jackie Brown is that it's the only film Tarantino didn't write as the screenplay was adapted from a novel. It's a very good movie, though. Very underrated.

Pulp Fiction has that title, but Jackie Brown is still a masterpiece.
