A true Classic !!!

Rating: 10/10 (29 August 2004)

Watching Pulp Fiction for the first time I didn't know what to expect. After a couple of viewings though, I realized just how amazing this movie is. The dialogue between Jules and Vincent is some of the best in the history of film. Samuel Jackson was robbed at Oscar time(Martin Landau won it) for sure. Come to think of it so was John Travolta, by Forrest Gump of all people. The out of sync story telling was done in a very clever way. I know it owes a lot to Stanley Kubrick's " The Killing". But Quentin Tarantino still finds a way to make it his own. I could have done without the Gimp and Zed scene. Couldn't Quentin find a better way to have Marcellus Wallace take the hit off of Butch? I mean come on, they happen upon a place where they are going to sodomized, by a cop no less? Didn't seem to fit there at all. The Wolf scene was a bit weak as well. Other than that the actors all turned in stellar performances. I quote this movie more than any other. Helps when you have seen it a few dozen times. Often ripped off(or tried to be ripped off), since its 1994 release. But never even came close to being duplicated. 10/10 for a true film classic that will be loved for years.
