As far as I remember, Pulp Fiction was the first Tarantino film I ever saw, and it was love at first sight. An excellent film with an incredible number of great lines, a perfect cast, and an amazing plot. It's simply a film that grabs my attention right from the opening scene and doesn’t let go until the closing credits. Even now that I know exactly what's going to happen and when, and how it’s all going to end. A real treat!

No, even after watching it several times, I simply couldn't change the title of this film. The individual stories and scenes are so well-crafted, it's unbelievable that someone who had only made one film before could have accomplished this. The dialogues are perfect, and Tarantino got exactly what he needed from each actor. He is truly a master at making every scene perfect, there is something captivating to be found in each one.

This movie was mind-boggling. I really don’t know what to make of it. The most accurate words to describe my emotions about the movie are "a boring watch". I’m sorry, but I really don’t know why everybody enthuses so much about this. About this really regular but overrated movie. The movie stands on rather uninspiring stories with a touch of brutality and a couple of gritty (and sometimes cringe-worthy) one-liners. I was unable to find any magic in this movie, and I doubt there is any. A massive disappointment and purely objective score of a mediocre 3*.

A breakthrough film of the 90s that gave birth to the Quentin Tarantino cult and marked the transformation of its genre. A skillful mix of violence and vulgarity combined with a clever screenplay that skillfully intertwines storylines and connects individual storylines. It became the most financially successful American film made in the 90s outside of major studios. Audiences appreciated Tarantino's inventiveness, as film production in the previous decade had been desperately sterile and unoriginal. They were fascinated by the raw violence and harsh lines that were unprecedented at the time. The film could rely on several stars who played their roles with great enthusiasm, with Samuel L. Jackson becoming one of the most sought-after actors. In this film, Tarantino capitalized on the thousands of hours he spent watching B-movies from around the world. It was evident that he could make something out of these ideas... Overall impression: 80%.

I can't figure out why, but other great movies can be characterized by words such as brilliant, perfect or fantastic. But when you say the word CULT, only two things come to my mind: Star Wars, and most importantly Pulp Fiction. A cult movie which has everything: cult scenes, lines, characters, the whole package. Plus, it was made by the most original director in Hollywood.
