One of the best there is

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2006)

I don't like John Travolta. Every movie with his name on it works for me as a "big red signal flag." It's not that I think he is a bad actor. Not at all. But he does bad movies. In his best times all he did was musicals, and I hate musicals. Nowadays he plays the bad guy in bad movies. But there is no rule without exception. And in Travoltas case that is a huge exception: Pulp Fiction.
I hadn't seen this movie but I wanted to when my friend allowed me to lend it from him. I watched it and I really, really enjoyed it.
The movie is, like the title says, simply pulp fictions. A lot of stories set in the same universe with lovely characters and, as usual when Quentin is around, great dialog. During this film we get to hear interesting conversations about hamburgers, foot massage, pot belly's and how you can rob a bank with a cell phone. Don't try the last one though since it is in fact, well, illegal.
Thanks to this one and Reservoir Dog I consider myself a Quentin Tarantino fan. The man knows how to make smart and entertaining movies by mixing everything that made him want to become a director in the first place. Some would call it original but if you ask me it's simply how the business works.
Here's a movie that started a revolution when it came out. If you haven't watched it this should be the #1 on your have to watch list.
