Pulp Fiction's reviews
Media reviews
The Washington Post
?PULP FICTION? is everything it?s said to be: brilliant and brutal, funny and exhilarating, jaw-droppingly cruel and disarmingly sweet.
The Guardian
The sheer directionless excitement that only Tarantino can conjure.
The Hollywood Reporter
Some of Tarantino?s lines are so pure, you could mix ?em with 80 percent talcum powder and still make a big haul by selling in an alley somewhere.
Rolling Stone
Whatever you call it, Pulp Fiction is indisputably great.
Empire
How could you not love a movie where a character called Antwan Rockamora is constantly referred to as Tony Rocky Horror?
Entertainment Weekly
Watching Pulp Fiction, you don?t just get engrossed in what?s happening on screen. You get intoxicated by it.
Time
A brilliant American film noir with John Travolta and Bruce Willis barges in at the last minute to take top honors at Cannes.
Variety
A spectacularly entertaining piece of pop culture.
Chicago Sun-Times
The movie resurrects not only an aging genre but also a few careers.
New York Times
"Pulp Fiction" uses the shock value of such contrasts to keep its audience constantly off-balance.
Time Out
Tarantino lacks, as yet, is the maturity to invest his work with anything that might provoke a heartfelt emotional response to his characters. Very entertaining, none the less.
Los Angeles Times
The temptation to embrace the entire two hours and 29 minutes of Tarantiniana is strong. But in truth this is a noticeably uneven film.
