Breathtaking
By a customer from Warwickshire , 20 Sep 2003[Highly rated reviewer]
Propulsive in-your-face salute to film noir with a Nineties slant with savvy filmmaking from auteur Tarantino interweaving three tales of crime, sex, greed and O. Henry sensibility mixed with Murphy's Law.
What can one say that hasn't been said about 'Pulp Fiction': the dialogue is fresh, the narrative is brilliant, the acting is superlative, etc. All these praises are merely opinions, but one has to be completely ignorant to deny the influential aspects of 'Pulp Fiction.' A film that was the catalyst for the independent film generation. It is the film that defied Hollywood's preconceived notion--that all films needed to be moulded from an archetype. 'Pulp Fiction' reinvigorated a genre inept, and bereft of creativity. Simply put, 'Pulp Fiction' is the best film of the 90's; much like 'Citizen Kane' is regarded as the best film of all time. Both films cinematic aspects can be argued, but one would be hard pressed to deny the level of their influence.- Was this review helpful to you?

What is there left to say? It's brilliant from beginning to end, as long as you have a fairly strong stomach. One of the original reviews (In the New York Review of Books, if memory serves) pointed out that Tarantino learned his art watching TV and that 'the Bonnie Situation' is structured exactly like an episode of 'Leave it to Beaver' (we must clear up this mess before mom gets home!). Not only a great insight, but it adds immeasurably to the pleasure of the movie to keep that comparison in mind.- Was this review helpful to you?

Should be renamed 'Over hyped fiction'
By ElPedro (37 reviews) , 13 Jun 2013Great look & feel even today However multiple loose thrown together stories are weak to say the least Travolta's resurrection This film reignited the weak minded's desire to discuss & talk about banality Love it or hate it, the fact is that this movie worships & glorifies bloody violence Reasonable film Massively over Hyped to death- Was this review helpful to you?

Violent and boring
By a customer , 12 Apr 2013It would be a waste of time if you were looking to be entertained. Excessive gratuitous violence and pointless foul language.- Was this review helpful to you?

Pretty damn good.
By BlueEyedGirl (2 reviews) , 07 Oct 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
I liked it, funny in parts, interesting and well done. Not what i was expecting, i had expected a more linear plot focused on one particular story rather than what is more a kin to an insight of many short stories of the lives of people in a world of violence, drugs and crime. I'd say its enjoyable, however not for those who dislike gore, violence, or are offended easily. I recommend it :)- Was this review helpful to you?
