More than just pop culture references

Rating: 10/10 (22 December 2009)

I can honestly say that this is my second favorite movie! My favorite is The Matrix. But let's get back to this. Yes, the movie is stylish and hilarious but it has a lot of meaning to it. Some say it's just one of those movies that are pointless and good. That's not true and ill tell you why: The reason they recite all those pop culture references within the movie just show that they constantly use these things to force meaning into their lives.You'll notice how Jules(Samuel L. Jackson) changes during the robbery scene at the ending of the movie. He said something about if this were a few hours ago I would have killed you already. Jules recited a Bible verse every time he killed someone to sound cool and meaningful. He was just trying to force some meaning into his life. When Vincent(John Travolta) and Jules were shot at, they didn't die. It was a miracle according to the movie, and only Jules would acknowledge that. Vincent just said "whatever". Then later on Vincent is killed by Butch(Bruce Willis) because he didn't quit working for Marcelles Wallace and he didn't change. Jules did change. That's why he got killed. That is just too thrilling to know.
