With the knockout one-two punch of 1992's Reservoir Dogs and 1994's Pulp Fiction writer-director Quentin Tarantino stunned the filmmaking world, exploding into prominence as a cinematic heavyweight contender. But Pulp Fiction was more than just the follow-up to an impressive first feature, or the winner of the Palme d'Or at Cannes Film Festival, or a script stuffed with the sort of juicy bubblegum dialogue actors just love to chew, or the vehicle that reestablished John Travolta on the A-list, or the relatively low-budget ($8 million) independent showcase for an ultrahip mixture of established marquee names and rising stars from the indie scene (among them Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis, Ving Rhames, Harvey Keitel, Christopher Walken, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Julia Sweeney, Kathy Griffin, and Phil Lamar). It was more, even, than an unprecedented $100-million-plus hit for indie distributor Miramax. Pulp Fiction was a sensation. No, it was not the Second Coming (I actually think Reservoir Dogs is a more substantial film; and P.T. Anderson outdid Tarantino in 1997 by making his directorial debut with two even more mature and accomplished pictures, Hard Eight and Boogie Nights). But Pulp Fiction packs so much energy and invention into telling its nonchronologically interwoven short stories (all about temptation, corruption, and redemption amongst modern criminals, large and small) it leaves viewers both exhilarated and exhausted--hearts racing and knuckles white from the ride. (Oh, and the infectious, surf-guitar-based soundtrack is tastier than a Royale with Cheese.) --Jim Emerson

 A Tarentino classic October 4, 2008
This was one of the movies I had to buy years ago after I watched it at a friends house. After ordering Kill Bill 1&2 I decided to revisit this classic. Years later its still an amazing piece of work. Several stories intertwine together to form a masterpiece of circumstances. Every conversation draws you in and entertains you even the pointless ones manage to keep you entertained . The action isn't high but its enough to keep you interested. With an all star cast Its a great movie to own as a Tarentino fan and a must see to new comers.
 Certainly one of the worse movies of a decade September 8, 2008

I can't believe anybody would give rave reviews for this junk. The acting was horrible, the dialogue was stupid and the movie indulged in senseless violence and drug themes. Hey, let's bring the redlight district into our living room. It is hypocritical that the movie lampoons socalled white racists as ferries while the same directors and producers endorse the "rights" of ferries. Quentin Tarantino must eat a lot of junk food to look like that. He certainly spews out junk when he directs a movie. The pulps I'm familiar with were well written. Writers like Maxwell Grant (aka Gibson) or H. P. Lovecraft or R. E. Howard would role over in their grave to know that the modern spin on pulp fiction has been reduced to this.
A modern classic! September 5, 2008

Four modern crime noir tales which one tells of two professional hitmen Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) and Vince (John Travolta) work for gangster Marcellus Wallace (Ving Rhames) and retreive a stolen suitcase. Since Wallace is out of town for a few days, Vince takes out Marcellus's wife Mia (Uma Thurman) out for dinner but a mistake occurs but soon gets fixed. Next a retired boxer named Butch (Bruce Willis) accidently kills an opponient as he must flee the city as soon as he gets back his dead dad's golden watch and struggle with a perverted pawnshop owner then finally our two hitmen kill someone in the car by accident as they must clean up the mess then later two criminal lovers Honey Bunny (Amanda Plummer) and Pumpkin (Tim Roth) decide to rob a restraunt but with Jules and Vincient right there in the middle of the mess.
An extraordinary motion picture that has been hailed by audiences and critics alike as a modern masterpiece of film. Quentin Tarantino fresh off from directing "Reservoir Dogs" which shocked and suprised audiences and critics alke too has created another classic of his but as an anthology. The soundtrack is just outstanding including the amazing performances by the cast which also includes Christopher Walken, Rosanna Aequette, Dwayne Whitaker, Phil Lamarr, Harvey Keital, Quentin Tarantino and Eric Stoltz. The dialog is sharp and so is the original screenplay and the characterizations are well done. This is a knock-your-socks off experience that has became one of the true classics of recent memory that is violent, unique, complex and smart as well with so much memorable quotes you don't know where to start and it's a must see.
This 2-Disc DVD set is awesome with it's brilliant transfer and sound quality with some great extras like "Pulp Fiction: The Facts" Documentary, deleted scenes, production design featurette, INterview with Tarantino on "The Charlie Rose Show", Behind The Scenes Montages, Interviews from the Independent Spirit Awards, Palma D'or Acceptance speech, Reviews and articles on the film, Trailers even international ones, TV Spots, 8 different still galleries, soundtrack chapter stops, and cool DVD-Rom features.
utterly disappointing and worthless! August 27, 2008
0 out of 4 found this review helpful
I am even disappointed about being disappointed by this movie because I loved Quentin's "Resevoir Dogs". But this flick was so painfully contrived, poorly written and conceived, and so dependent on transparent cheesy ploys to get attention that it is just totally unwatchable. The pretty girl just because you need a pretty girl (especially on commercial posters and DVD covers), the John Travolta dance scene because they needed to exploit the popularity of Saturday Night Fever, the overdose scene just to show we can film such a thing, the buggery scene just for shock value....and on and on....all very transparent ploys to get attention, shock the faint-hearted and draw in the gullible masses that'll watch anything that shocks the faint-hearted and righteous types. Everything was poorly glued together with a weak, unbelievable plot unworthy of a major film producer/director. The lack of time chronology, the jumping back and forth between scenes wasn't even done well, which is disappointing from Quentin T. He knows that jumping back and forth in time during scenes can be very effective. And Quentin knows how to do it very effectively...again, I refer you back to Resevoir Dogs, a brilliant flick where he used devices in a very effective and stirring way. RD is one of my all-time favorite movies, which is why I am so utterly disappointed by this very cheesy follow-up. I think QT was even trying to "give the audience a message about redemption" when Travolta's little gangster buddy (played by Samuel L. Jackson) 'found God' after all was said and done. This only drags the film further into the gutter of uselessness. Resevoir Dogs gave no messages. It displayed the characters as they were, let you taste the lives of these dirtballs and left you to draw from it what you will. This flick was riddled with poor writing, unbelievable glitzy plots, unnecessary characters and scenes that served no purpose other than to transparently get certain intended reactions from certain people, the time chronology jumps were poor and not as effective as QT is capable of when he does a good movie.....there are many reasons to wish this flick was never made. There is some decent acting by some of the involved actors, given the undesirable script. Harvey Kietel, John Travolta and Bruce Willis all gave decent performmances under the circumstances. It almost made the movie worth 2 stars, just about, almost. But, the movie was just so bad! If you like lots of gangster-related violence, swearing and shock-value fluff with no plot, just a bunch of poorly constructed movie devices haphazardly glued together, you might enjoy this film. Otherwise.....the hype didn't match the final product. Sorry, Quentin. I know that you know how to make a brilliant movie. This flick was just not up to what your standards should be. Better luck next time.
(I'm adding this after my initial review because I can see I'm already getting negative votes that are obviously coming from people who have already seen the movie and disagree with my assessmemt. If you haven't seen this fick, don't let these people sway your thinking. As I said, if you like mindless shock value or are turned on by anything at all that would get a rise out of the faint-hearted or righteous types, you may like this film. But if like me, you think shock value is great, but only if it is well done, do yourself a favor and steer clear of this film.)
 I got a headache after watching this because of swearing by many actors from the beginning till the end. August 26, 2008

I got a headache after watching this because of swearing by many actors from the beginning till the end. The acting is lively. It's worth watching once.
