#94 Pulp Fiction

Title: Pulp Fiction

A.F.I. Ranking: 94

Director: Quentin Tarantino

Starring: John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis

Release Year: 1994

Brief Synopsis: It’s really hard to write a synopsis about this crazy movie that goes all over the place. This movie is a series of stories where the characters seem to get caught up in situations that just won’t go right. All of the stories are connected by Vincent Vega, a hit man who would rather be in Amsterdam eating a burger.

My Thoughts: I feel silly reviewing a movie that has become such a cult classic, and a movie that many wouldn’t believe I‘ve seen before. I feel even stranger writing a bad review for a movie that so many love, but I didn’t really enjoy this movie at all. Sure I smiled once in awhile at the cool lingo, but that was about it. Even though I didn’t enjoy this movie, I can appreciate why others would. The dialogue is quick and snappy and Travolta and Jackson are the essence of cool, but yeah whatever. I really don’t enjoy movies that jump all over the place, and have a bunch of crazy side stories for no apparent reason. This movie was less of a good story, and more of a showcase for a bunch of actors and directors to get together and show the world how cool they think they are.

“I love you Honey Bunny.”
