Another "Yucky" Tarantino

Rating: 1/10 (23 March 2005)

In one word: boring.
Get the comments people make about this movie. You have those that say it's "innovative and controversial", others that it's "violent and refreshing", others that say it's a "rebellious masterpiece". Yes, you can check it out, absolutely all comments fall into such kind of comments. Why? I have a theory: those guys have NEVER watched a good movie. And I mean it! Violence? Gosh, this movie was only less boring than "Natural Born Killers", the worst movie ever made (don't worry, I have a "good" comment prepared for that crap, also).
There is only one really violent scene in the whole movie, when the pervert binds the boxer Bruce (and the other guy I can't even remember who was) and prepares to torture them. I can't remember if he actually does torture them, but that's absolutely irrelevant, the situation the characters are put into is what really matter. And Bruce choosing the sword when he escapes, oh my, that was really nice (the only good moment in the whole movie). Wanna see lots of fake blood, watch "Happy Tree Friends"! But do you want true violence, watch "Spoorloos". Paraphrasing it, if you think killing is the worst thing somebody can do, you haven't seen anything yet!
It's absolutely amazing that crimes like rape and kidnapping are considered less severe than a murder in our "civilization". Okay, a murder is terrible, but nothing compares to the suffering of those that survive (not only the victims, but also those around them...)
"Pulp Fiction" is about terminating people without a good reason, nothing more. I see no violence in some idiot blowing up a nameless character's head (MTv's Movie Awards parody of the car scene was excellent, they really got the idea!!!) This movie only shows more fake blood than most "hollywoodian" movies, but what's the point? If it created a revolution in Cinema, it was to make it "yuckier"... I have seen much more blood in "Hellraiser", which, by the way, has blood AND violence! All Tarantino's movies are too shallow to show true violence...
Too bad IMDb doesn't allow voting zero for a movie...
