'Man, I don't EVEN have an opinion!'

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2014)

For the record, this is my favourite film of all time.
A personal preference of mine in cinema is an emphasis on dialogue rather than action; and Tarantino's masterpiece certainly provides in that field.
The in-depth character analysis in this film is impeccable and evident from the get go; the seemingly irrelevant discussion between the characters gives the viewer an insight into the characters and also effectively makes you feel like you know them. Never has a discussion about burgers and foot massages between two eccentric hit men been so entertaining. The dialogue here in this film is so great that by the time the violence comes around, you may not even care for it. This is an essential example of how not everything needs to be 'Michael Bay-ified' to be popular.
Another thing that struck me about this film is it's underlying maturity despite the 18 rating. The film is almost devoid of negative stereotypes, for example female characters are portrayed as having power; as well as one of the main and most philosophical characters being a black male alongside his apparent less powerful white colleague. Another mature aspect to this film is the lack of sexual content. Sure, there are a ton of references and innuendos; however no actual sex is ever shown. I feel it's too easy now for films to stay 'interesting' through the use of sex scenes.
If you are expecting a run of the mill crime film, then think again! The dialogue is exceptional, the acting is exceptional (despite Tarantino's personal involvement, but that's besides the point), The blend of comedy and violence is exceptional, and the characters are simply iconic.
Yet another point, the soundtrack is probably the best you will ever encounter in a film. It fits the mood absolutely perfectly, and whenever you hear a piece of music from this film in the future you will inevitably think of the scene in which it is from.
