Has there ever been a more stylish film?
Pulp Fiction, from the mighty intellect of Quentin Tarantino. A feast for the delights of a young man like myself. Constructed with prowess and supremacy.
It tells a weaving tale in 3 main parts, with a little cunning introduction to boot. **First, it's a couple aptly named Pumpkin and Honeybun robbing a diner. (Tim Roth and Amanda Plummer) **Then it's two hit men (one being Samuel L Jackson stealing the show)on a job to retrieve some merchandise for their gang boss. **Then it's the other hit-man, Vincent Vega (John Travolta) being assigned to take the gang boss' wife out for a good time. Yet she ODs and it's up to him to get her to his drug dealers house for quick adrenaline. **Then it's Butch Coolidge's turn (played by Bruce Willis) as a boxer who betrays his boss (the gang boss) and does a runner, only to leave his gold watch which he must get back, exposing himself to the gang after him. **Then we revert back to the hit men after they have retrieved the boss' stuff, and who accidentally happen to shoot their passenger on the way home. And in comes the lovely stash him in the garage routine. Clean up and go, with the help of The Wolf (Harvey Kietel) and disgruntled Jimmy (Tarantino himself) who is the owner of said garage, in which he needs to clear before his wife gets home. **Finally the hit men go to breakfast after the clean up, and get caught up in the diner robbery, only to confront them in a dramatic climax of cool talk and muffins...
That's a hell of a lot of film packed into 2hrs 20mins, and it is apt to assume that this is quite amazing. It sounds confusing and imaginative, and it sort of is. But Tarantino seems to add enough realism to the picture so you can watch it comfortably never once getting ahead of yourself, or lost in the plot. It's a cool look at gang life, with fun stories and a great soundtrack to back up that this film is not only hip to the beat, but a genuine cinematic triumph... Enjoy!
