Superb and amazing. Fantastic.

Rating: 10/10 (7 January 2007)

If there are a lot of things in the 90's to recognize, one of them is Pulp Fiction. The Fantastic film by Quentin Tarantino that (next to Reservoir Dogs) is probably one of the most memorable titles ever released.
The film begins a lot like Reservoir Dogs; For those who haven't seen that movie (As I have, but saw it after everyone else saw it)I will not spoil anything, but it begins like a Tarantino movie does, very weird and almost like it's in another world. It's reality, but in a very warped state of reality, where the world we live in is like the one we live in, but constant danger exists around every corner.
The film then starts to the credits and leads the way into a series of events that tell you how the event we have just witnessed in the beginning started. It's kind of confusing to translate without giving away a lot, which is yet another reason to watch this movie.
If there is anything I can give away, it's just about the stories, but anymore and this comment will need a spoiler warning.
Story one follows Vincent and Jules (John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson), two men whose priorities are to retrieve something, and discussing the events of something Vincent is supposed to do with a character Marsellus Wallace's (Ving Rhames) wife.
The 2nd event involves a boxer, Butch (Bruce Willis) whose life was changed by an event from his youth that follows up to the present time.
The final event mentions some characters I cannot begin to mention because of the spoilers in that it will ruin the viewing experience to anyone who sees it.
I'm gonna be honest, This is my first viewing of Pulp Fiction, and I've seen the countless parodies that have followed along with it. However, that shouldn't be a reason to not see it. Having seen the parodies, it still helps to see the movie, now 13 years old, to see what shocked a lot of viewers in the 90's. This film is violent. I'm not gonna deny that. This is a Tarantino movie, it's going to be violent, it's going to have language, and it is long and a bit confusing at times, but it is without a doubt, one of the single best movies ever made.
No doubt, it's episodic cinema that is perfect to watch, and it's brilliant. You think Kill Bill and Sin City are good, WATCH THIS MOVIE. if you didn't think they were good, WATCH THIS MOVIE, it cannot be avoided. I rate it a 10 out of 10.
