Extremely enjoyable

Rating: Null/10 (28 December 1998)

It cannot be said that Tarantino movies are ever boring. There is always something interesting going on. I felt "Pulp Fiction" humanized the criminals to the point that they were supposed to be cuddly, but this movie did not do that. I was also happy to see mature, middle-aged adults in a movie; Forster's craggy face was a study in lifes' journeys, and his scenes with Pam Grier were beautiful. As always, a "killer" soundtrack helps. The other thing that bothered me was DeNiro was sleepwalking through his part, and I kept thinking about how anyone else would have been better.
