Great cast, plot, acting, and directing

Rating: Null/10 (19 May 2001)

What can I say about this film that hasn't already been said. I guess my favorite attribute about this movie is the unique direction by Quentin Tarentino. Instaed of having an average crime drama with lots of cool killing like most movies, he intertwined three different stories and one cool scene into a superb look at crime. Tarentino makes criminals look not as much like one-dimensional Gods, as most movies do, but he makes them look like average human beings that have morals, weaknesses, and personalities. He shows how crimianls make mistakes, and that their reasons for killing aren't just for the hell of it. He shows how criminals think, feel, react, etc. Besides that, the cast is just exceptional. Harvey Keitel, Samuel L. Jackson, John Travolta, Bruce Willis, Uma Thurman, etc. all make the movie experience more fun. They all are wonderful stage presences, to say the least. Another cool thing about the film that is often overlooked is it's image. It has this image that is just impossible to describe, like how American Beauty or Fight Club moth have their images. The colors, the sets, the dialouge, the characters all come together to create this image, and, let me tell you: it's just awesome. It's a fun movie with witty dialouge. I can't get enough of this movie. And, oh yeah, the infamous basement scene with the...I won't give it away. It's very awful and disgusting but it's not like the entire movie is centered around it, so just watch it, and see how it plays a vital part in the development of Bruce Willis's charcater. See it, you'll love it (But first see Resovoir Dogs."
