Pulp Fiction [IMPORT] description 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 |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Great movie...but simply overrated. |
| Pulp Fiction is probably one of the greatest movies of the 1990's, but is it the best? No of course not. It's just ONE of them, but not it.
The movie in some way is unique and has some memorable dialogue and characters. But let's face it...It's completely OVERRATED. I swear I have seen this movie in every TV network I change it to. It's on almost every other week, even on HBO, STARZ & MAX. I have yet to see any other of his movies on TV like Reservoir Dogs or Jackie Brown. It's just Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction. Alot of his fans considered this to be Tarantino's best film, but honestly Reservoir Dogs was much better in terms of everything: characters, dialogue, storyline, directing, acting; even if it was a low-budget film, it still rocked. The movie is great, but like I said it has too much hype surrounding it. If it didn't maybe the movie could have been perfect. That's why I give it 3 stars - I would give it 3.5 stars but I can't. Great movie, but the hype totally takes 2 stars away from it...it gets 3 stars. |
