With the knockout one-two punch of 1992's Reservoir Dogs and 1994's Pulp Fiction writer-director Quentin Tarantino stunned the filmmaking world, exploding into prominence as a cinematic heavyweight contender. But Pulp Fiction was more than just the follow-up to an impressive first feature, or the winner of the Palme d'Or at Cannes Film Festival, or a script stuffed with the sort of juicy bubblegum dialogue actors just love to chew, or the vehicle that reestablished John Travolta on the A-list, or the relatively low-budget ($8 million) independent showcase for an ultrahip mixture of established marquee names and rising stars from the indie scene (among them Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, Bruce Willis, Ving Rhames, Harvey Keitel, Christopher Walken, Tim Roth, Amanda Plummer, Julia Sweeney, Kathy Griffin, and Phil Lamar). It was more, even, than an unprecedented $100-million-plus hit for indie distributor Miramax. Pulp Fiction was a sensation. No, it was not the Second Coming (I actually think Reservoir Dogs is a more substantial film; and P.T. Anderson outdid Tarantino in 1997 by making his directorial debut with two even more mature and accomplished pictures, Hard Eight and Boogie Nights). But Pulp Fiction packs so much energy and invention into telling its nonchronologically interwoven short stories (all about temptation, corruption, and redemption amongst modern criminals, large and small) it leaves viewers both exhilarated and exhausted--hearts racing and knuckles white from the ride. (Oh, and the infectious, surf-guitar-based soundtrack is tastier than a Royale with Cheese.) --Jim Emerson

 You will either "GET" this movie or you won't March 18, 2010
The Phoenix
This movie is about letting go for a couple of hours, and getting into the "Mind of Madness". To be able to see how reasonable, unreasonable things, seem to a disturbed mind. It is allowing you, for a couple of hours, to experience something you may never have experienced, without the magic of movies. So be prepared to spend a little time harmlessly embracing madness, in order to give yourself a fuller experience.
When you "Freak Out" about a movie that you clearly do not understand, it doesn't help your credibility.
Love This Movie! March 16, 2010

 This is a Chinese Import March 11, 2010

This Blu-Ray is a Chinese import from Hong Kong. There may be nothing wrong with it, but Amazon really should make that clear in their listing. There is no USA Blu-Ray release of this film. Nor will there be any time soon, as Miramax has gone under. If you want to be guaranteed the best import version currently available, track down the Danish import. It's Region Free, and the audio/video are outstanding.

What can I say my stoner ex-girlfriend made me watch this movie. It nearly had me in tears when I was an hour in and realized that there was still 2 more to go. I'm lucky I keep my hair short because by time I got down to the last 30 minutes I wanted to rip my hair out. It was the most boring piece of crap I have ever watched. With one exception if you are a stoner you'll love this movie blazed because I assume that when you are flying high you just don't care how truly terrible this movie really is.
(Update) As requested I'll post some more information as to why this movie sucks. The plot is pointless. I understand the concept, but if I spend the whole movie bored because scene after scene goes on and on then it takes away any interest in the characters or what's happening. I do stand by my stoner comment though. This is terrible. Maybe if I had some better ganja it might get another star, but since I don't smoke anymore that doesn't seem too likely.
