Pulp Fiction

An untouchable aura that surprisingly does damage. Although John Travolta is irresistible and Bruce Willis flawless, the glory of the most cultish cult bothered me to such an extent that I probably won't be able to enjoy Pulp Fiction without some biases. A weaker four stars and the need for another viewing. (26/01/2006)

I can't figure out why, but other great movies can be characterized by words such as brilliant, perfect or fantastic. But when you say the word CULT, only two things come to my mind: Star Wars, and most importantly Pulp Fiction. A cult movie which has everything: cult scenes, lines, characters, the whole package. Plus, it was made by the most original director in Hollywood. (25/03/2013)

No, even after watching it several times, I just couldn't change the title of this film. The individual stories and scenes are so meticulously crafted that it's unbelievable this was made by someone who had only one film under their belt. The dialogue is impeccable, and acting-wise, Tarantino got exactly what he needed out of everyone. He is truly a master at making every scene perfect, and there is something breathtaking to be found in every scene. (17/12/2015)

A breakthrough film of the 90s that gave birth to the Quentin Tarantino cult and marked the transformation of its genre. A skillful mix of violence and vulgarity combined with a clever screenplay that skillfully intertwines storylines and connects individual storylines. It became the most financially successful American film made in the 90s outside of major studios. Audiences appreciated Tarantino's inventiveness, as film production in the previous decade had been desperately sterile and unoriginal. They were fascinated by the raw violence and harsh lines that were unprecedented at the time. The film could rely on several stars who played their roles with great enthusiasm, with Samuel L. Jackson becoming one of the most sought-after actors. In this film, Tarantino capitalized on the thousands of hours he spent watching B-movies from around the world. It was evident that he could make something out of these ideas... Overall impression: 80%. (23/06/2006)

My 500th review happens to be about this film. Is that a coincidence? I wouldn’t say so; it feels more like fate. Until now, I couldn’t consider myself a complete film fan, but after watching Pulp Fiction, I can. I don’t even need to say that it’s Quentin Tarantino’s best film ever. The term cult classic should be in the title, and you should always refer to it with that clearly designated descriptor. Tarantino called up his favorite actors in the industry, and they delivered something unheard of and unrepeatable here. It’s impossible to choose who performed best, but Travolta had something special. I loved how all the stories eventually came together as one. And what’s the best thing about the film? Of course, it’s the dialogues, which are so filled with funny lines that I sometimes couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Anyone who hasn’t seen this film must rectify that immediately. And the music? Once again, a perfect gem. Nothing like this will ever be made again. I give it 90%. Correction for 2020: Django is the best. (25/08/2016)
