Rejuvenation of many careers

Rating: 10/10 (15 January 2007)

This is the one film that re-writes the book of film-making. Unfortunately Quentin could never and can never repeat such a masterpiece. There are elements of brilliance in his other films but none of them reach the brilliance of each everyday dialogue between the characters that makes it so riveting. So many actors were re-discovered with this movie. John Travolta found that be could be a serious actor outside a music score, Samuel L Jackson found the big break he was destined for, Tim Roth following on from Reservoir Dogs had to be taken seriously across the pond, Bruce Willis must have thanked his stars for featuring in this film without his A-list fee. Ving Rhames Mr big re-rejuvenated his career and this was the sling-shot that catapulted Uma Thurman to fame. nu ff said
Eric Stolz played his part to perfection and Harvey Keital was on song.
