Adapted from the novel Rum Punch by Elmore Leonard (who publically praised the film), and a subtle homage to the Blaxploitation films of the 1970s.
Source: Creator / Quentin Tarantino - As Tarantino's only straight adaptation (of the Elmore Leonard novel Rum Punch), it stands as a departure from Tarantino's standard style, so people who like Leonard's style more than Tarantino's style will generally favor it over his other works.
