If you don’t know already, go rent the fucking movie. You see how that works?

Review:
Pulp Fiction is the shit. So writing this review will be quite a daunting task. Please bear with me if I start to ramble on about why I think its such a great movie (there, you’ve been warned).

Pulp Fiction is the best movie of the 90’s. Now I know that some of you Mofo’s out there that will disagree by sighting movies like Goodfelleas, Schindler’s List, Saving Ryan’s Privates (whoops)…etc. I concede, there all real…real, real good movies, but Pulp Fiction is a fucking madman. It should have won the best picture Oscar in 94, and the fact that Forest Gump won is a slap in the face.

Pulp Fiction works on so many levels that watching it only once does the movie a grave disservice. Believe me, I’ve seen this bad-boy at least 50 times (all the way through), and I’m still finding new things I like about it. The framing of this picture is a thing of genius. In fact watching this film in full-frame should be a crime punishable by public flogging.

But what’s most impressive about Pulp is the impact it delivers throughout the film. Think about it. Remember the first time you saw it? What was going through your mind during the Ezekiel 25:17 scene? Or during the overdose scene? Pulp Fiction grabs you, throws you around a little bit, and then lets you go to contemplate what you just experienced. And that’s what makes it such a great fucking movie.

Pulp Fiction’s impact on Hollywood must also be acknowledged. Not only did PF resurrect John Travolta’s career; it also made a leading man out of that sly sweet motherfucker Sammy Jackson. And let’s not forget Ving Rhames contribution, which was right up his alley.

Now I know that some of you stupid motherfuckers out their gotts a problem with the language used in this motherfucking film, but I think it’s fucking money. Seriously though, the language in this film fits the characters using it, omitting the cursing would have taken away from the flavour of the movie. So quit your belly aching about it already.

Special Features :
Deleted scenes and trailers are all you get with this DVD. But they are definitely worth watching if you’re a fan.

The deleted scene section is fairly extensive, and Tarantino himself does the intros. Cool. The 4 scenes presented are all interesting, but I have to agree with Quentin in that none of them should have been left in the film. Hence…deleted scenes.

The trailer section was well worth the time. Not only do you get the original US trailer; you also get the trailers from the UK, Japan, France, and Germany. The Japanese one is the most notable, as it contains every single scene with a gun and Bruce Willis with the Samurai sword. Who knew that the Japanese were such violent motherfuckers? Well I guess the Chinese did, but I didn’t.

Video and Audio:
The video transfer on this bad-boy could have been better. Some scratches and dust fragments can be seen here and there, but there not that noticeable. Dolby 5.1? Shit Negro, that all you had to say!

Asking me to pick one is like asking the Pope to pick a favourite Bible verse. But here’s a few of my fav’s.

“Am I a nigger? Are we in Ingilewood? No. You’re in my home. Now, white people who know the difference between good shit and bad shit, this is the house they come to. Now, my shit, I’ll take the Pepsi Challenge with that Amsterdam shit any old day of the fucking week.” - Lance

“Shit Nigro. That’s all you had to say!!!” - Jules

“Oh, man, I shot Marvin in the face.” - Vincent

“Well let not start sucking each others dicks quite yet.” - The Wolf
