This movie deserves all the praise it is getting!

Rating: 10/10 (22 June 2000)

( A ) I could understand why some people might hate this movie; and I respect that. However, what I don't understand is why someone would say that Tarantino is a bad or not good enough director. It's simply not true and you know it! This movie was done very well in more areas than one. Somehow the characters seem more natural in their behaviour, the way they speak, etc. The stories aren't deep and the plot isn't very rich because it isn't supposed to be. This is just a look at some criminals caught in some interesting and messy situations.
In order to really like this movie, you need to set all your expectations aside and --very important-- watch it more than once. You'll probably like this movie even more the second time. But if you didn't like it a bit the first time you saw it -- don't waste your time! Find something else to watch. This is the kind of film that you either love or hate. I love it.
The cast is great, the acting is amazing. The characters are very vivid and interesting. And even though some of the situations are a little outrageous, Tarantino still made them believable. Butch's story was very entertaining, and Jules is just the coolest - I like how he handles the coffee shop robbers at the end (even though it's not really "the end")...
And the soundtrack -- fabulous. I think Tarantino has good pretty good taste in music. You won't find any scores for his movies, though - just really cool tunes from the sixties and seventies that were once popular, but were forgotten.
As for the violence... there isn't much of it really. Yes, you heard me right. Next time you see PULP FICTION count the number of times you see a really violent scene and you'll realize it's not more than any other action/crime movie... And notice that they don't show that much -- it's mostly your imagination filling in what the camera doesn't show you.

I recommend this movie to all true motion picture fans.
