Coolest movie ever!

Rating: 10/10 (4 March 2005)

What can I say...my favorite movie until I saw this one was Mortal Kombat...lol I have to admit that when I was younger and I saw this movie, I didn't think it was all that, in fact, I found it long and boring. I guess at that age, I must've been about 14, I wanted to see more action, more blood, and all that simple stuff that you're attracted to as a young teenager. Now that i'm 23, and more grown up, and actually care about the movies' plots and story lines, depending if the movie is supposed to be taken seriously, I say this movie is a masterpiece that will never be equaled by any other! Pulp Fiction is great from start to finish. Tarantino's idea of showing the movie cropped up in different episodes and have them scrambled all over the movie in the same order he wrote the script I think it's great. It shows his creative genius as a screenwriter and how he can make the movie makes sense in the end, and it's good brain candy for the viewer. Now on to the characters: Sam Jackson's Jules has to be hands down my favorite movie character of all time. His coolness is hardly matched by any other character in movie history, and it's only complimented by John Travolta's character and partner in the movie, Vincent Vega. Although Vincent Vega in my opinion is way less cool and dumber and more annoying, Travolta does a great job playing Vega. Ving Rhames as Marcellus Wallace is great as well, playing the fearsome mobster, who the entire movie revolves around. Bruce Willis is great as an aging boxer who follows his instinct and honors his blood by refusing to throw a boxing match, angering Marcellus Wallace who earlier in the movie, tried to convinced him he's washed up and should do it. Uma Thurman is perfect and sexy as Marcellus Wallace's wife Mia, and her screen time with Travolta is nothing short of Hollywood gold. The rest of the cast is excellent too. Harvey Keitel, as Winston Wolf, the man who solves "problems" and who thinks fast, talks fast, and drives very f-'in fast so you better keep up. He is a delight to watch, especially when seen opposite Travolta's character Vincent, who in the movie tests his cool with one of his usual smart-ass comments. Keitel really commands the screen when he's on it and while he's on it steals the spotlight away from Jackson and Travolta. Quentin Tarantino, making a brief appearance as Jules friend Jimmy is pretty good too, not great but pretty good and funny as well, but I still rather see Tarantino behind the camera than in front of it. Eric Stoltz, hilarious as Lance the dope dealer, Tim Roth and Amanda Plummer as diner robbers Pumpkin and Hunny Bunny, great as well and everybody else, even Mad TV's Phil LaMarr in a very brief appearance as one of Vincent and Jules' victims. Every single line in this movie is worth listening to and being quoted in endless websites because the dialogue is the best in recent movie history, yes, there's lots of profanity, but that's what Tarantino wants us to see, that his characters' dialogue is just like yours and mine and they talk about the same stuff you and I talk about on our way to work and quote the same TV or movie characters you and me do. That and of course the music, every single song they play in this movie perfectly fits the mood of every scene and that's what make those songs stick in your head for days. This movie deserved all the Golden Globes, Palm D'or, and Oscars it won. A true 90's classic! 10 out of 10
