7. Jackie Brown
We can’t get over how ridiculous Samuel L. Jackson’s Ordell looks with his red hair and braided string of a goatee in this film. Pam Grier’s Jackie Brown is caught up transporting Ordell’s money back and forth from Cabo San Lucas back to Los Angeles. Robert De Niro plays Ordell’s freshly-released-from-prison friend Louis. Unfortunately, he has to spend his time with one of Ordell’s girlfriends, the chaotic Melanie, who will always do what Melanie does. Bail bondsmen Max Cherry (the late Robert Forster) gets hit with cupid’s bow the moment he meets Brown out of jail and decides to help her out in her ploy to deceive the ATF (Michael Keaton) and Ordell. We love a happy ending where a woman gets one over on everyone.
