It's 4:20; Do you know where Pulp Fiction is? Spoiler with Chaser!

Rating: Null/10 (13 June 2002)

I finally saw this film for the first time in 2002. I read some of the info on IMDb before seeing it, I remember that it seemed to contain more goofs than any other film that I have looked up on IMDb. What little I knew about the film made me biased. I, of course watched it carefully and analytically yet I still didn't pick up on any of the little nuances. Where are all these alleged clocks that say the time is four-twenty??? Who made up that up??? I guess I'm not quick enough to appreciate Tarantino's commitment to detail. The only thing I was able to question was that the background in the cab scene was pretty chintsy but I thought that it was deliberate to give it a 1940's film-noir kinda feel.
It's mildly funny and quite philosophical.
Even after seeing it, I still feel like I have not seen it yet! Does anyone know where I can get a "real" version of the film? It was not what I expected. I guess ANY slight knowledge of this particular film is an ultimate spoiler. I didn't see how Uma Thurman's character had to do with the whole thing. I would have edited her out completely, yet she was the movie's marketing image. However, I think the cast and acting was bar-none. Overall a great experimental attempt and a stepping stone of films that followed. At least I know why my friends have changed since 1994 in their speech and attitude. This could have been an interesting blaxploitation film if it had been released circa 1976. I would say the movie is like (Deliverance) meets (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels)
I don't see what the big fuss over this movie was, though it did have an personal impact on me. Makes me think everyone around me has a gun.
