Pulp Fiction Film Review

Pulp Fiction is rebellious in the way that it manipulates all usual plots structures by twisting time to satisfy its own system. The film tells a series of interlocking stories involving two hitmen, a boxer and his French girlfriend, a crime boss and his mischievous wife, a small time drug dealer, two lovebird robbers, two hillbilly rapists, and a leather freak. However, all these stories revolve around three main plots;

. . .
There is no question about how this film keeps you on your toes, thinking about what is going to happen next. The two hitmen are Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. The screen writes are original, the ensembles of actors for each role, from Samuel L. Travolta is, indeed, very good as Vincent, but the fact that he has perhaps the most screen time of the whole cast also helps. Travolta and Jackson play off each other with perfect timing and relaxed ease, carrying on intriguing conversations about the slight differences between Europe and America, “In Paris, you can buy a beer in McDonalds,” the nature of miracles, and the relative importance of foot-messages. Jackson to Umma Thurman, is outstanding and the music that presents the feeling to the audience is compelling. There probably are not too many actors who can deliver the f-word as compellingly as Samuel. The music is so clam and puts the audience right in to the mood of the film that you cannot help but feel the intensity and passion that the characters are feeling. The transition from scene to scene is presented in a way that you could not fall asleep in this movie even if you tried.

The intense acting in the movie Pulp Fiction, as well as the narration, is another aspect that made the movie as great as it was. However, if one is sensitive about violence, which is portrayed very graphically in this film, along with the social issues of bad language and excessive drug use, than this movie is not for you. In a way Travolta and Jackson deliver the defined dialogue written by Tarantino, that makes even the most ordinary people both hilarious and fascinating. Part of the genius of this film is the way Tarantino manipulates the conventional plot structure to make the impossible possible.

Although Pulp Fiction may not of won any Academy awards for its excellence, one cannot help but remember the incredible narration and be in awe by how it is presented in a way like no other before it.
