Pulp Fiction


Yep, I watched Pulp Fiction (1994) for the first time about two and a half years ago. To be honest, watching it again now, I feel like I understand it a lot more now than I did then, and therefore it has gained it's place high up in my favourite movies.
Quentin Tarantino is a GENIUS! I loved this, I loved Inglourious Basterds, I loved Kill Bill, I loved Death proof, I loved the bits I have seen of Reservoir Dogs. I absolutely love Quentin Tarantino, he is the reason I watch movies. Basically, he is the best director ever! Pulp Fiction is widely known as his best work, and is currently ranked #5 on imdb.com's Top 250. The storyline is pretty much a multi-plot affair which all comes together, and has such characters as two hitmen, a boxer, a gangster's wife and a couple of diner bandits. Hey, this is the recipe to sweet success.
Pulp Fiction stars everyone under the sun-John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis, Ving Rhames, Tim Roth, Amaanda Plummer, Eric Stoltz, Christopher Walken and even a brief appearance from Tarantino himself. This is the kind of classic Tarantino that everyone should see-it is extremely violent but it makes everything work. And I always love seeing Tarantino starring in his own movies-this is definitely one of his best appearances. I can't really promote Pulp Fiction anymore but I have to say that it is one of thee best movies ever made-and I am not just saying that because I am madly in love with Quentin Tarantino. It is just too great for words.
10/10
