Jamie Foxx has been in some mediocre films and seems to act the same way in most of them (Collateral; Jarhead; Miami Vice; The Kingdom), he has talent but perhaps he's just not stretched enough. Law Abiding Citizen was entertaining but I don't know who was more wooden, Foxx or Gerard Butler.
Still, if anyone can get a good performance from him it's Tarantino.
From the description, I would have liked to have seen Chiwetel Ejiofor in the role.
