Pulp Fiction is what hailed to the film community that Quentin Tarantino had arrived as a visual auteur. The film is a complete original - from the unusual and eccentric characters, to the witty and razor-sharp dialogue, to the topsy-turvy plot, which shifts backwards and forwards in time. The film is a crime film that cares more about its characters than about its McGuffin of a plot and it's exciting, funny, and energetic from start to finish. |

This is Tarantino's masterpiece. The ultimate movie that has you laughing and amazed at every scene. No detail is left untouched, every character is unique and multi-dimensional. I still find the dance scene between Travolta and Uma to be one of my favorite dance scenes of all time. Strangely, this movie took me awhile to sit down and watch. One of the best movies of all time. |

A mass of pulp for the ages. |
|
Pulp. That's what Pulp Fiction is. Some characters, some plot points and some random occurrences thrown together and mashed until they are one mass of pulp in the form of a Quentin Tarantino production.
Pulp Fiction holds a special place in my heart, because it is a thought-provoking movie like Memento or Inception, but still has the pessimistic comedy like The Big Lebowski. I can't really categorize it into a specific genre, because all that this movie is, is a collection of people, all stranded at the wrong places at the wrong time. There's Butch, an aging boxer from Knoxville, Tennessee (also where Quentin Tarantino is from), who agrees to take a dive in his next match.
There's Mia Wallace, actress and wife to Marsellus Wallace, employer of hitmen Vincent Vega and Jules Winnfield.

An incredibly entertaining flick |
|
Everyone likes Pulp Fiction, and I resisted for the longest time. I had seen Kill Bill, I had seen Death Proof and I thought they were both kind of lame, how good could this other Quentin Tarantino flick be? I kind of thought of it as a gangster version of Forest Gump, a movie that everyone loves despite the fact that it is actually kind of dumb. At least that’s what I thought of it before I watched it.
Pulp Fiction is one of the few modern movies that I think deserves every bit of critical acclaim and IMDB top 250ing that it has gotten. It is incredibly awesome. I know a lot of people go to Fight Club for their manly art-house fix, but I’ve always preferred Pulp Fiction.
I am actually kind of in awe of this movie and how beyond typical analysis it actually is. Tarantino’s rambl... |

Fantastic story telling and a great cast! |
|
One of the most famous movies of the 1990's, Pulp Fiction is a graphic, crowd-pleasing, shocking and awesome crime drama that tells three short-stories which focus on a certain character and ends with that character reaching the moral high point of his life. But it’s the dialogue that really clinches it for me - sharp, snappy, humorous and delivered at a break neck speed. The verbal sparring is every bit as exciting and violent as the blood and bullets and little bits and pieces of brain.
Each character has their own classic scene and the first one involves John Travolta as Vincent Vega and Uma Thurman as the drug-addict Mia Wallace, the gangster boss's wife and ends with him saving her life, delivering her home safely before walking away (rather than sleeping with her).
The second... |
