Without doubt the film that shook up Hollywood....

Rating: 9/10 (17 October 2003)

I remember all to well, entering the cinema with friends, expecting something special. A massive fan of RD, and having read reviews of excellence, PF had a lot to live up to. All I can say is that it blew my mind. Without doubt the most memorable soundtrack ever and direction that no one other than Tarantino could or would have tried. The film is weaved together around three stories and with machine precision, link as one at the pinnacle and finale of the picture. There is no star. Each performance could not be bettered. Travolta and Jackson may have the most minutes on screen but Keitel, de Medeiros, Walken, Thurman...... all provide special performances. The picture gives us questions to take away that will never be answered (what's in the case?). There are also so many indirect references from other films. My favourite is Willis as the boxer calling out "Fabienne" in an amazingly similar way to Stallone as Rocky, bawling "Adrienne".
Quentin. I salute you. A masterpiece which did more for cinema than we will know for years to come.
