Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!"

Needless to say that this is the most remembered and highly praised quote that has been taken from this movie, it was truly disheartening to find out that this was not originally written in the Holy Bible, but was a combination of different verses. However, in spite of that, this is the film's only flaw. Consisting of an all-star cast including Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis, Ving Rhymes, and none other than the zany Quentin Tarantino himself, "Pulp Fiction" is an a class all on its own, in the most positive manner. While the story is told in a non-linear fashion, Tarantino did it right, as it brings all the points and plot twists that are intertwined in the movie together in very distinct and separate parts, all the while shocking the viewer and making them wonder, "What the hell did I just see?" Top notch acting, life-long memorable quotes, and superb directing, "Pulp Fiction" is unquestionably not only Tarantino's prized possession, but a crowned jewel of cinema. 10/10

The outrageously funny dialogue of this movie is what really drives it. Quentin Tarantino writes some of the most entertaining dialogue there is to write between two characters.
Despite its over two and a half hours long run-time, Pulp fiction does not drag in the slightest as it is basically multiple entertaining movies rolled into one with an all-star cast that perfectly fits in Tarantino's zany universe. You actually are left wanting for more as the end credits begin to roll. Even after watching the movie more than a dozen times, I still can't remember what scene comes next. However, It's non-linear narrative structure isn't what makes Pulp Fiction a near masterpiece, its true strength comes from the excitingly fresh characters and the crazy events that take place in the film. And of course, the quirky-smart dialogue. The characters in the movie are always talking yet always so interesting.
You never really think you'd enjoy a movie about the lives of two mob hit men, a boxer, a gangster's wife, and a pair of diner bandits, it all just feels so random, yet it intertwines so brilliantly. I love it.
Undoubtedly, one of the most quotable movies ever and most certainly my favourite movie of all time.
So, Pulp Fiction, 10/10? Correctamundo.

Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta star in this incredible film. The repetition of scenes and the jumbled order make the fiomfilm confusing at times but gripping at the same time. This is a tarantino masterpiece. Not only was there great acting and directing but a brilliant soundtrack to top it off. Pulp fiction is the kind of film you just want to talk about for weeks after seeing it.

And the movie is really funny too, so don't fill sorry if you did laugh out loud when you so Marvin getting shot in the face. Also this movie has a great soundtrack, with some of the most catchiest song out there. And the in my opinion the best acting given by Quentin Tarantino in a movie.

"That's when you know you've found somebody special. When you can just shut the **** up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence."

I haven't seen this in years, but damn it's still holds up.

There's some many fantastic scenes and fantastic lines throughout. The dance scene, "Does He Look Like a **** "Royale with cheese", and the list goes on.

But man the thing that stuck with me the most on a re-watch is Jules as a character.

I notice that when he kicks off the monologue by dropping the question "Do you read the bible?", these a sense of repetition as if he asked this question multiple times before executing some poor bastards life, but the more he recites the bible verse, the more he slips back into a fiery craze. While he's often chilled and collective, but also the loudest thinker.

So in reality the film was about Jules learning to leave the thug-life behind, because he's trying real hard to be the shepherd.

Masterpiece!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The least interesting thing about Pulp Fiction is what is in that bloody briefcase. Whether it is unlimited moolah, the soul of Crime Lord Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames) or the gold lame suit worn by Val Kilmer's Elvis in True Romance (1993) really misses the point of Tarantino's molotov cocktail of a picture. Making a mockery of the difficult-second-film cliche, Tarantino weaves a patchwork of crime film history into something shiny and new. Peppered with great moments eaten up by actors working at the top of their game (Travolta, Willis and Thurman have never been better, and the film created the aura of greatness that currently surrounds Jackson) Pulp's witty writing, pop culture-surfing, gleeful amorality, cult tuneology and hyperkinetic energy has redefined the crime genre for the foreseeable future.

Drawing on the compendium format of Black Mask magazine and Mario Bava's gothic flick Black Sabbath (1963) as well as the twisty-turny crime literature of Frederick Brown and Charles Willeford, Tarantino wrote Pulp on the European press push for Reservoir Dogs (1991) — hence Vincent Vega (Travolta )'s detailed knowledge of Amsterdam minutiae. As such, the film also boasts a European feel; both in specific incident — the day-in-the-life-of-a-hit-man strand acknowledges the influence of Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Samourai (1967) and the Vincent-Mia's twist has the same spirit as the impromptu dance in Jean-Luc Godard's crime flick Bande A Part (1964) — and in its rather intelligent sense of deconstructing Hollywood history.

Indeed, Pulp Fiction operates in the hinterland between reality and movie reality. Into a cadre of movie archetypes — the assassin, the mob boss, the gangster's moll, the boxer who throws a fight — Tarantino injects a reality check that is as funny as it is refreshing. Whereas most crime flicks would breeze over the rendezvous between Vincent and Mia, here we actually get to go on the date— polite chit-chat, awkward silences, bad dancing — before it spirals off into a drugged-up disaster. Just as Dogs is a heist film where you don't see the heist, Pulp is a boxer-takes-a-dive flick where you never see the bout, opting instead for conversations about muffins and Deliverance-style rape. Moreover, after Vincent and Jules take back Marsellus' briefcase, rather than cutting to a cop on their trail, we stay with them and revel in their banal banter as they dispose of a corpse (the genius of Keitel's Wolf in this effort is a moot point — how much intelligence does it take | to clean a car, then throw a rug over the back seat?)

What startled about Pulp on release was its audacious story dynamics. It was originally planned as a straight anthology flick — Tarantino's decision to cross-reference the yarns mines even more dramatic gold (i.e. the hero can get killed halfway through). While none of the stories amount to much on their own — if you told Pulp in a linearity, it would start with Vincent and Jules arriving at Brett's apartment and end with Butch and Fabienne Dooming off on Zed's chopper—in crisscrossing the exposition, Tarantino forges hooks of expectation and curiosity that pay off one by one in satisfying ways.

Through its tricksy plot structure, very few films capture such a rich sense of an interconnected crime community. Of course, this extends even beyond the parameters of the film itself to Tarantino's other movies — that Vincent Vega has a brother better known as Mr. Blonde hints at a whole nexus of underworld activity — and to the whole crime genre itself. As Butch kills Maynard, Marsellus Wallace warns Zed he's going to get some henchman, "To go to work with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch." In Charley Varrick (1973), a character named Maynard warns a bank manager about the very same method of torture.

While all the plaudits may have gone to Tarantino's killer dialogue — it's appeared everywhere from parody Plump Fiction to the Fun Lovin' Criminals' hit Scooby Snacks — Pulp is an equally stimulating visual experience. From the eyeful of Jackrabbit Slims to the magical square Mia draws to underline Vincent's geekiness to Andrzej Sekula's glossy, wide angled image-crafting, the look of Pulp is equally as imaginative without ever calling attention to itself.

More protean than Dogs, more fun than Jackie Brown, Pulp is so perfectly wrought it makes you forgive the crimes against cinema that Tarantino has perpetrated with his acting. Three great movies for the pries of one, the anaemic rip-offs that have followed have only served to sharpen its greatness. Besides, how could you not love a movie where a character called Antwan Rockamora is constantly referred to as Tony Rocky Horror?

The danger of having as successful and explosive a debut as Reservoir Dogs is that expectations are invariably high - sometimes unrealistically so - for the follow up. Quentin Tarantino, however, has managed the near-impossible: improve uponThe danger of having as successful and explosive a debut as Reservoir Dogs is that expectations are invariably high - sometimes unrealistically so - for the follow up. Quentin Tarantino, however, has managed the near-impossible: improve upon the extraordinary. Pulp Fiction shows what can happen when a talented and accomplished filmmaker reaches his apex.

This film is one wild ride. An anthology of three interconnected stories that take place in a modern-day Los Angeles tinted by echoes of Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, the movie impresses in every possible way. Writer/director Tarantino has merged film noir with the gangster tale and pulled them both into the '90s. As definitive as Francis Ford Coppola's Godfather saga was for the '70s, so is Pulp Fiction for today's generation.

Pulp Fiction's three tales are structured to intersect and overlap at key points, even though they are not presented in chronological order. Tarantino arranges his initial scene to dovetail with his final one in a remarkable example of closure. Those confused by the structure will see everything clearly once the final line is spoken.

Pulp (pulp) n. 1. A soft, moist, shapeless mass of matter. 2. A book containing lurid subject matter, and being characteristically printed on rough, unfinished paper.

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who in the name of charity and goodwill shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and a finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee." - Jules' version of Ezekiel 25:17
The danger of having as successful and explosive a debut as Reservoir Dogs is that expectations are invariably high - sometimes unrealistically so - for the follow up. Quentin Tarantino, however, has managed the near-impossible: improve upon the extraordinary. Pulp Fiction shows what can happen when a talented and accomplished filmmaker reaches his apex.

This film is one wild ride. An anthology of three interconnected stories that take place in a modern-day Los Angeles tinted by echoes of Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, the movie impresses in every possible way. Writer/director Tarantino has merged film noir with the gangster tale and pulled them both into the '90s. As definitive as Francis Ford Coppola's Godfather saga was for the '70s, so is Pulp Fiction for today's generation.

Pulp Fiction's three tales are structured to intersect and overlap at key points, even though they are not presented in chronological order. Tarantino arranges his initial scene to dovetail with his final one in a remarkable example of closure. Those confused by the structure will see everything clearly once the final line is spoken.

The movie has outstanding performances from pretty much the whole cast and its
gruesome use of violence and profanity is what makes it special with a bit of
humor mixed into it. The cinematography and editing is really distinct and unique than of other movies. This is a film that every aspiring film maker needs to see.

Tarantino arranges his initial scene to dovetail with his final one in a remarkable example of closure. Those confused by the structure will see everything clearly once the final line is spoken.

"Vincent Vega and Marsellus Wallace's Wife" is the first story. It opens with Vincent (John Travolta) and Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) out on a hit for their boss, Marsellus (Ving Rhames). Along the way, Vincent confesses that he's uneasy about an upcoming job - taking out Marsellus' young wife Mia (Uma Thurman) while the main man is out of town. The source of the nervousness lies in a story circulating that Marsellus had a man thrown out a fourth story window for giving Mia a foot massage. One wrong step and Vincent could find himself in deep trouble.

"The Gold Watch" is about a boxer, Butch (Bruce Willis), who is handsomely paid by Marsellus to throw a fight. Only at the last moment does it become more profitable to renege on the deal. So, along with his French girlfriend, Fabienne (Maria de Medeiros), Butch goes on the run, hoping to live long enough to spend some of the fortune he has suddenly gained.

"The Bonnie Situation" ties together a few loose threads. It also introduces Harvey Keitel as a suave problem-solver named Wolf and Quentin Tarantino as Jim, a man worried that his wife will come home from work to find a dead body in a blood-spattered car in his garage. Sometimes, it appears, helping out Marsellus is not without its complications.

As was the case in Reservoir Dogs, Tarantino's crisp dialogue sparkles. The vulgarity-laced monologues and conversations ripple with humor and are ripe with points to ponder.

This film is amazing, and I would go further and say it is my favourite Quentin Tarantino film, and one of my favourites of the 90s. The cinematography and scenery are spellbinding, and the soundtrack is brilliant, one of the best soundtracks in a Tarantino film actually. The plot is every bit as compelling as that for Reservoir Dogs, while the dialogue is endlessly quotable and quite hard-boiled. The direction is superb, as are the performances. As excellent as Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis and Christopher Walken are, the film's best actors are John Travolta and Samuel L.Jackson who are unforgettable. Pulp Fiction also has a wealth of characters and crossplots that is really quite astonishing. All in all, brilliant. 10/10 Bethany Cox Expand

After Reservoir Dogs put him on the map (even if it's just an unashamed rip-off of the far better 'City on Fire'), Pulp Fiction came along a couple of years later and just annihilated the idea that independent film-making was about scraping back enough profit to plough into the next project.
On a small ($8 Million) budget, it grossed over $200 Million, and cemented QT as THE director for any respectable actor to get themselves associated with.

It's hard to sit here and offer any kind of critique of the movie, it's now became so ingrained into 'pop' culture that it's more about the legacy, than the film itself. It spawned a slew of similarly styled/themed movies over the next few years, and the term 'Tarantino-esque' was invented to describe them.
The film resurrected the career of John Travolta, turned Uma Thurman into an unlikely pin-up, and showed the world what only a few people had noticed up to that point... That Samuel L. Jackson was one of the most charismatic actors of all time.
With its sequence-breaking narrative, groundbreaking usage of music, extended steadycam shots, over the top violence/profanity, drug usage, witty dialogue, brilliant direction, and enough nods to other great films of the 40's/50's and 60's to keep the most avid cinephile trying to spot references in the background of virtually every shot...
A true modern masterpiece, and worthy of a 10/10 rating.

The danger of having as successful and explosive a debut as Reservoir Dogs is that expectations are invariably high - sometimes unrealistically so - for the follow up. Quentin Tarantino, however, has managed the near-impossible: improve upon the extraordinary. Pulp Fiction shows what can happen when a talented and accomplished filmmaker reaches his apex.

This film is one wild ride. An anthology of three interconnected stories that take place in a modern-day Los Angeles tinted by echoes of Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, the movie impresses in every possible way. Writer/director Tarantino has merged film noir with the gangster tale and pulled them both into the '90s. As definitive as Francis Ford Coppola's Godfather saga was for the '70s, so is Pulp Fiction for today's generation.

Pulp Fiction's three tales are structured to intersect and overlap at key points, even though they are not presented in chronological order. Tarantino arranges his initial scene to dovetail with his final one in a remarkable example of closure. Those confused by the structure will see everything clearly once the final line is spoken.

"Vincent Vega and Marsellus Wallace's Wife" is the first story. It opens with Vincent (John Travolta) and Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) out on a hit for their boss, Marsellus (Ving Rhames).

Sometimes, it appears, helping out Marsellus is not without its complications.

As was the case in Reservoir Dogs, Tarantino's crisp dialogue sparkles. The vulgarity-laced monologues and conversations ripple with humor and are ripe with points to ponder. Foot massages, hamburgers, comfortable silence, a gold watch, pot bellies, divine intervention, and filthy animals - all these and more receive the writer's attention as he presents meaningless issues in an intensely-fascinating and almost lyrical fashion. Who else (except perhaps David Mamet) can make profanity sound so poetic?

For anyone who thought they knew the breadth of Bruce Willis' and John Travolta's acting ability, a surprise awaits. Whether it's an effect of the script, the direction, or something else, these two turn in surprisingly strong performances.

All the details are executed to perfection. Ironies abound in the smallest situations. One death is caused by, of all things, a poptart. And it takes a director of rare talent to find the comedy in so many macabre situations. This goes beyond gallows humor. Mixing the original with the derivative, Tarantino pushes Pulp Fiction in directions that are equally anticipated and unexpected.

Relentless in its pace, Pulp Fiction is as exhausting as it is exhilarating. In between all the shootings, Mexican standoffs, and other violent confrontations exist opportunities to explore various facets of the human experience, including rebirth and redemption. With this film, every layer that you peel away leads to something deeper and richer. Tarantino makes pictures for movie-lovers, and Pulp Fiction is a masterpiece.

I have seen this film around 100 times (I proudly add at the cinema four times to date and ever willing to catch it on the big screen) and I have never got tired of it. The dialogue, characters, scenes, plot, just everything about this film add to create a film worthy of being my favourite film of all time. The only other film that comes close to this for me, which ticks every box when it comes to actors and script writing, is Luc Besson's Lèon: The Professional.

Every actor in this film plays their part brilliantly. All the scenes come together beautifully and I can't give this film enough praise. Me and my dad still quote this at each other every time we meet and we will be doing for many more years

Along the way, Vincent confesses that he's uneasy about an upcoming job - taking out Marsellus' young wife Mia (Uma Thurman) while the main man is out of town. The source of the nervousness lies in a story circulating that Marsellus had a man thrown out a fourth story window for giving Mia a foot massage. One wrong step and Vincent could find himself in deep trouble.

"The Gold Watch" is about a boxer, Butch (Bruce Willis), who is handsomely paid by Marsellus to throw a fight. Only at the last moment does it become more profitable to renege on the deal. So, along with his French girlfriend, Fabienne (Maria de Medeiros), Butch goes on the run, hoping to live long enough to spend some of the fortune he has suddenly gained.

"The Bonnie Situation" ties together a few loose threads. It also introduces Harvey Keitel as a suave problem-solver named Wolf and Quentin Tarantino as Jim, a man worried that his wife will come home from work to find a dead body in a blood-spattered car in his garage. Sometimes, it appears, helping out Marsellus is not without its complications.

As was the case in Reservoir Dogs, Tarantino's crisp dialogue sparkles. The vulgarity-laced monologues and conversations ripple with humor and are ripe with points to ponder. Foot massages, hamburgers, comfortable silence, a gold watch, pot bellies, divine intervention, and filthy animals - all these and more receive the writer's attention as he presents meaningless issues in an intensely-fascinating and almost lyrical fashion. Who else (except perhaps David Mamet) can make profanity sound so poetic?

For anyone who thought they knew the breadth of Bruce Willis' and John Travolta's acting ability, a surprise awaits. Whether it's an effect of the script, the direction, or something else, these two turn in surprisingly strong performances. And they're not the only ones. Uma Thurman, Rosanna Arquette, Ving Rhames, Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Eric Stoltz (who has a Tarantino-related triple play with Pulp Fiction, Killing Zoe, and Sleep With Me), and the director himself are all excellent. And then there's Samuel L. Jackson, who seems to get better with every outing.

All the details are executed to perfection. Ironies abound in the smallest situations. One death is caused by, of all things, a poptart. And it takes a director of rare talent to find the comedy in so many macabre situations. This goes beyond gallows humor. Mixing the original with the derivative, Tarantino pushes Pulp Fiction in directions that are equally anticipated and unexpected.

Relentless in its pace, Pulp Fiction is as exhausting as it is exhilarating. In between all the shootings, Mexican standoffs, and other violent confrontations exist opportunities to explore various facets of the human experience, including rebirth and redemption. With this film, every layer that you peel away leads to something deeper and richer. Tarantino makes pictures for movie-lovers, and Pulp Fiction is a masterpiece.

“Pulp Fiction” is everything it’s said to be: brilliant and brutal, funny and exhilarating, jaw-droppingly cruel and disarmingly sweet. Quentin Tarantino, the postmodern Boy Wonder of American crass culture, for whom the only thing to fear is“Pulp Fiction” is everything it’s said to be: brilliant and brutal, funny and exhilarating, jaw-droppingly cruel and disarmingly sweet. Quentin Tarantino, the postmodern Boy Wonder of American crass culture, for whom the only thing to fear is boredom itself, has produced a work of mesmerizing entertainment. To watch this movie (whose 2 1/2 hours speed by unnoticed) is to experience a near-assault of creativity.

The multi-plot story, whose almost-Escherian design becomes apparent as the movie progresses, is too involved to outline. Essentially, the film’s a narrative circle of interconnecting, time-jumping episodes, in which various pulp-fictional gangsters, molls and palookas deal with bizarre occurrences in their lives. In the end, everything comes together in a multi-ironic Tarantino reverie. The never-a-dull-moment drama is propelled by its crazy-casting dream team: Samuel L. Jackson is unforgettable as a philosophical killer who quotes Ezekial before his ritual executions. Uma Thurman, serenely unrecognizable in a black wig, is marvelous as a zoned-out gangster’s girlfriend. Bruce Willis is a pug-faced charm as an aging boxer who refuses to throw a fight. And who knew John Travolta would produce the sweetest performance of his career as a good-natured goon?

As with his “Reservoir Dogs,” Tarantino delves into the working-stiff world of crime. For the characters in “Pulp Fiction,” killing, stealing and breaking fingers are merely occupational banalities. Partners Amanda Plummer and Tim Roth discuss whether to keep robbing liquor stores or stick up all the customers in the sandwich shop they’re eating in. (They carry on like a married couple making a mutual career decision.)

Hoodlums Travolta and Jackson—like modern-day Beckett characters—discuss foot massages, cunnilingus and cheeseburgers on their way to a routine killing job. The recently traveled Travolta informs Jackson that at the McDonald’s in Paris, the Quarter Pounder is known as “Le Royale.” However “a Big Mac’s a Big Mac, but they call it Le Big Mac.”

“Come on,” says Jackson, as they approach the room of their victims-to-be. “Let’s get into character.”

With chatty asides like these, Tarantino makes unwilling—and disconcertingly easy—conspirators of the audience, no matter how outlandish the action. In one of the movie’s most harrowing sequences, Thurman has a drug overdose and Travolta—stuck with babysitting her for his boss—has to perform improvisatory surgery. It’s horrifying and oddly funny. As Travolta and drug-dealer Eric Stoltz attempt to revive her with the help of a medical book, the movie enters some out-there combination of Sam Peckinpah-style gruesomeness and “I Love Lucy.”

Tarantino, an L.A. video store clerk-turned-auteur, was raised on filmic bloodletting. Screen violence, assimilated secondhand from such films as “Straw Dogs,” “The Godfather” and “Scarface,” is his most immediate reference point. But he transcends himself by putting brutality in quotation marks, making it traipse hand in hand with absurdity. It may be that, with “Reservoir Dogs” and “Pulp Fiction,” Tarantino has over-mined his muse. Should he make another work remotely like either film, he’ll run the risk of rendering his work commonplace. But for now, his material is witty, ironic and inspired—although the irredeemably squeamish should know to stay away. In “Pulp,” you’ll see what it is to clean up a car spattered with brain gore. But you’ll also see an amusing Harvey Keitel, as a freelance clean-up man (dressed as if for a prom) supervising the icky proceedings. In the film’s most exhilarating showpiece, Willis undergoes an extended, hair-raising suspense ride that includes sword violence, rape, gunfire and torture. After the most brutalizing experience of his life, Willis returns to his girlfriend, who promptly starts crying. Shaken beyond compare, Willis is the one who has to do the consoling.

“How was your breakfast?” he inquires, as pleasantly as he can.

There are not many movies to which I would award a perfect score. This, my favorite film both by writer-director Quentin Tarantino and of all time, is one of them.

The story is so scattershot and disassembled that it's difficult to give an accurate summary, but I'll see if I can. Here goes: burger-loving, philosophical hit man Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) and his heroin-addicted partner Vincent Vega (John Travolta) spend their days carrying out odd jobs for their gangster boss Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames), whether it be taking the big man's wife (Uma Thurman) out for dinner or shooting traitorous business partners (intentionally or not). One such treacherous individual is Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis), an aging boxer planning on making a grand exit from the sport, but risks Wallace's wrath in doing so. There are a few side plots that resolve themselves fairly quickly (i.e. a pair of robbers holding up a restaurant due to the supposed lesser risks, as well as a pawn shop owner and security guard into a rather unusual form of S&M), and the action that occurs over the course of three days in LA will surprise, disgust, delight, and amuse in equal measure.

What's most interesting about Tarantino's movie is the amount of time devoted to character dialogue, whether it be conversations or monologues, and indeed the most interesting moments are when extended discussions on topics ranging from the legality of hash in Amsterdam to, on a more philosophical note, what it feels like to end a life and religion. The problems faced by Jules, Vincent, and Butch aren't exactly the most typical, but the air of everyday ordinariness given to them by Tarantino makes us feel like even criminals have a stressful day at work every now and again.

From a writing standpoint this movie is easily one of the finest ever produced, with each line of dialogue specifically crafted to the situation at hand and ranging from mellow and laid-back to gleefully profane. While it is most certainly a neo-noir crime drama, the film plays out much like a black/dark comedy in many places (such as when a man getting his head blown off is hilarious), providing comic relief to balance out the violence, profanity, and drug-induced antics (looking at you, Uma and Johnny) whenever they tend to become a bit overwhelming. Tarantino is not one of those cookie-cutter blockbuster writers that film schools crank out by the hundreds these days; he is a wordsmith, a vulgar poet who brings out the worst in our society and places it into his movies so we can laugh at what we've ultimately created.

The cast nails their roles to a T, whether it be Travolta (in a career-invigorating role) as the suave, hip mob enforcer who seems to like thin ties as much as his brother Vic (remember Michael Madsen, from "Reservoir Dogs"? Him.), Jackson as his more thoughtful and goal-oriented partner, Willis as the boxer with the not-so-genius ingenious plan, or Thurman as the spoiled trophy wife. Their performances help bring these characters to life in a way that we couldn't imagine if any other actor had played the part (speaking of which, Travolta was offered the title role in "Forrest Gump" before turning it down in favor of this one), to the point that some of them, especially Jackson, have become synonymous with their role and work with Tarantino. The supporting cast, ranging in star power from the legendary Cristopher Walken to Rhames as the mob boss Wallace to Eric Stoltz as Vincent's drug dealer to Tim Roth as one half of the restaurant-robbing duo, certainly don't back down in the presence of such powerful acting and bring humor or much-needed dialogue to situations that are quickly growing dull. Everyone involved in this film brought their A-game, and it makes the ride all the more enjoyable.

I've said it a million times, and I'll say it again: this film, in addition to being my favorite movie of all time, is easily one of the finest pieces of modern cinema ever produced. Tarantino, with his tightly-knit script full of razor-sharp wit, ensemble cast of talented actors, and outrageously absurd scenarios that the former group faces in pursuit of solving one of their problems, has created one of the greatest movies of all time. Tarantino is a master of his craft, and ever since my first viewing of this film any efforts of his have been first priority on my watch list. Though "Forrest Gump" is good, the loss of Best Picture by this film to the former is one of the biggest Oscar snubs in history. Watch it, and you'll understand why. 10/10

'Pulp Fiction', ¡Porqué no he visto esta película antes! Eso es lo que dije cuando acabé de ver esta maravilla de Quentin Tarantino. Si. Y es que 'Pulp Fiction' se ha convertido en una de mis películas favoritas de siempre.

En primer lugar, los diálogos, son increíbles. Están cargados de humor negro, inteligencia y sátira hacía todo.

Los personajes son inolvidables cada uno tiene su momento de gloria y tardaré tiempo en olvidarlos.

Es burra y tiene h**** de principio a fin, con unas situaciones de las más normales hasta lo más desternillante que he visto en mucho tiempo. Genial. Y con una manera de contar la historia 100% Tarantino.

En conclusión, para mí es una obra maestra del cine. Y sí me mojo. Momento favorito de la película, escena de la pareja Travolta - Uma Thurman. Y los momentos de Thurman en general no pueden ser más míticos. Los dos bailes... Un 10.

El guion esta brillantemente escrito todos los personajes tienen personalidad y muy bien definida una personalidad muy fuerte en cada uno de ellos, ademas ofrece dialogos memorables y la cotidianidad de estos hace que empatizemos mejor con los personajes ademas de ser muy interesantes y naturales. El siguiente punto es la trama que esta dividida en capitulos que estan desconectados temporalmente entre ellos y parecen sketches con los mismos personajes pero en este caso en todos los capitulos los protagonistas tienen un objetivo en claro ya sea proteger el maletin, recuperar tu reloj o llevar a la esposa de Marcellus Wallace a pasear un rato. No hay un final o un objetivo global asi que cada capitulo se toma su tiempo para explicar el objetivo de los personajes en este. Aunque no me parecio tan violenta como otras peliculas de Tarantino, este uso de la violencia controlada me parecio excelente porque ayuda con el humor negro de la pelicula, no se muestra algo muy exagerado ni tan sutil como para perder el toque de humor. Los temas que aborda la pelicula tambien son muy interesantes sobre como redireccionar tu vida y demuestra que en la vida se presentan momentos especiales que pueden cambiarlo todo y de ahi la estructura no lineal y dividida de la pelicula, son momentos cotidianos hasta que se presenta una situacion inusual. En resumen, Pulp Fiction es una excelente pelicula de las mejores de la historia sin duda y aunque, como ya dije, no es perfecta un 9 se me queda muy corto para esta pelicula. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you think "Pulp Fiction" is brilliant, you're wrong. It's more than that. It's a milestone in the history of film making. It's already a classic. But why? Because of the many "f" words, or maybe because of the brain and skull pieces on the rear window of a car? No, that's surely not the point (unfortunately some other users - fortunately the minority - don't get it). Tarantino has made a movie that's someway different from many other action, gangster or crime movies. What's so different? He knows the subject of the movie is "cool", he knows it's a product of mass culture, and he even likes it by himself. But he smiles at it and tells three great stories with a lot of irony. And this irony is the first point. The second point is that he gave souls to extremely schematic characters. They surely aren't another action heroes who you forget as fast as you can twinkle. They are human beings like we are, talking about Burger King and McDonalds, about TV series and a foot massage. They just earn their money with killing others or selling drugs. What else is so great about "Pulp Fiction"? It's the acting, the directing, the cinematography, the soundtrack, the sense of humor and the whole rest. In my opinion it's all worth nothing less than a 10 out of 10. A masterpiece. Expand

Pulp Fiction, il film migliore di Tarantino. Ma non saltiamo alle conclusioni così lentamente prima parliamo della trama: La storia di un assassino mangiatore di hamburger, un nero che crede nei miracoli E di un pugile in rovina si incastraPulp Fiction, il film migliore di Tarantino. Ma non saltiamo alle conclusioni così lentamente prima parliamo della trama: La storia di un assassino mangiatore di hamburger, un nero che crede nei miracoli E di un pugile in rovina si incastra nelle varie scene facendo un film perfetto:saranno i dialoghi, i personaggi (specialmente quello di Uma Thurman) e le scene violentissime e divertentissime che l’hanno reso il capolavoro che è oggi non lo so ma se vi piacciono i crime e le commedie questo è il vostro film Expand

Pulp Fiction is easily one of my favorite films of all time. Pulp Fiction is undeniably Quentin Tarantino’s magnum opus and his first masterpiece. This is one of the few films that can carry an entire story with dialogue and never get boringPulp Fiction is easily one of my favorite films of all time. Pulp Fiction is undeniably Quentin Tarantino’s magnum opus and his first masterpiece. This is one of the few films that can carry an entire story with dialogue and never get boring or stale, Quentin’s ability to make characters essentially talk about “nothing” and make it extremely entertaining and hilarious at the same time is essentially what makes this movie a masterpiece of writing. With career performances from Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis, and Tim Roth, the actors bring the expertly written dialogue to life with their amazing performances and vocal delivery. Pulp Fiction also has an extremely uncommon and non cohesive narrative structure, with the film’s stories playing out in non-chronological order. This allows for the film to be extremely unique and different, with certain events (because of the narrative structure) being placed before other events, it creates a nail biting and suspenseful feeling of “what’s going to happen next?”. Another thing I respect a lot about this film is, even with the small budget, the film’s production design (Example: Jack Rabbit Slims) is very interesting and a joy to watch. Jack Rabbit Slims genuinely looks like a throwback 50’s restaurant, complete with 50’s music and 50’s pop culture events/icons.
In conclusion, this film is a cultural and cinematic achievement, an utter flawless masterpiece in every shape and form, Pulp Fiction will forever be one of my favorite films of all time. I’m going to give Pulp Fiction (1994) by Quentin Tarantino: a 10/10!- Will Herren (April 22, 2020)

This movie is a masterpiece. It is not about the great plot, many could argue that there is no plot in the first place. What makes this movie great is the way that the characters react in the certain situation that occur during the movie. ofThis movie is a masterpiece. It is not about the great plot, many could argue that there is no plot in the first place. What makes this movie great is the way that the characters react in the certain situation that occur during the movie. of course you cant have a Tarantino movie without great dialogues. the dialogues in this occasion helps the viewer establish the feeling that the characters will have in the "future". All in all it was funny, well-put together and enjoyable for the viewer. Expand
