one of the strangest films of all time, and one of the best

Rating: 10/10 (7 June 2005)

Pulp Fiction is the second film by writer/director Quentin Tarantino. The film, wisely, has no real plot: it's all skill and structure. The story involves 2 hit men (John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson) who are doing a job, a boxer (Bruce Willis) who is supposed to take a fall on his next fight. The man who told Willis to take a fall is the boss of Travolta and Jackson (he is played by Ving Rhames). Also, Uma Thurman stars as Ving Rhames's wife, who gets involved with Travolta.
After reading this, you probably don't think this is a good movie. However, this film alone may have redefined the cinema of the 20th century. It is a complete original, it is ingenious, it was put together flawlessly, and always keeps you entertained. What makes the film an original is the non-linear story-telling screenplay, which tells the parallel stories through time: the first thing the characters did could appear in the middle of the film, instead of the beginning. You could watch the movie over and over again and not know what comes next. The performances were perfect, the actors are perfectly cast, the dialog is great, and Quentin Tarantino's lack of caution while making this film make it one of the best films ever made.
