Pulp Fiction: The Quickest Cult Classic Ever Created?



If you haven't seen Pulp Fiction yet, then allow me to demonstrate why this should be on your must see list of movies that you crave. If you like action, adventure, cutting edge dialogue and twist after indecipherable twist, then pulp fiction is your movie. With a heavy hitting cast and directed by Quentin Tarantino, likely the best director of our time, this movie is not to be missed.

The tale begins with two men who are arriving to some sort of destination. One of them has just returned from Europe, and is entertaining the other about his tales. His incredulous partner can't wait to go and visit for himself. When they pull up to the apartment complex, we learn the two characters are hit men, and have come to collect some type of payment or something.

One of the things that makes Pulp Fiction so incredibly entertaining is the original dialogue that seemingly goes all over the place, and is interesting in and of itself. The writer and director, Quentin Tarantino, is well known for his ability to make simple dialogue fresh and exciting.

These two killers make up the core of the story, as all of their interactions are somehow interconnected, and we to watch it all unfold. That this incredible movie unfolds the way it does in such a believable form is simply one of the ways that you must watch this movie.

What is likely the most repeated monologue in all of movie history, one of the killers recites a mythical passage from the Bible, before putting several bullets in his cowering victim. As the movie winds up to a close, the hit men questions which of the characters he actually is in this imagined line from the Holy Text. In the end of the movie, he has a change of heart, and decides to walk the earth in a quest for truth, instead of killing people for a living. Perhaps there will be a sequel in that.

In what is likely the most staggering piece of movie making, the final scene rolls right into the scene which opened the movie, before the opening credits even started. A young couple, having decided to rob a diner, because they feel it will be much easier to milk the patrons rather than a cash register protected by a gun toting store owner. Since it's release, Pulp Fiction was an instant classic, and should be seen by everybody.
