A Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 2019)

This is one of the few movies that I have to watch almost every time it's on. It's just so good. Everything about it is great. It's completely absurdist but it's authentic to that absurdity. Every second contributes to the building of the world in a way that comes off as the opposite of contrived. It doesn't focus on any single character but instead focuses on the story itself. That's not to say that the film doesn't contain some of the best characters that there has ever been on screen. The characters are portrayed in such a way that the story is seen as a natural product of their beings. The movie is technically amazing. It is able to so easily master long drawn-out single camera takes as well multi-camera quick cuts. Everything is perfectly timed and everything has a purpose. Pulp Fiction is seen as Quentin Tarantino's masterpiece and it is for very good reason, it's one of the best films of all time.
