I just happened to watch out this Tarintino flick. Amongst the IMDB Top 10, I had lot of expectations from it but seriously it is like any other crime fiction with some elements of humour. Personally, I think QT is way too overrated; his popcorn movies like Kill Bill get in IMDB top 250. Please can throw them out so other deserving ones can get it in? Please don't put me in the league of Fast and furious or Transformers lover.
I'm not sure personally. I watch his movies mainly for the actors he gets in them, but other than that they're a 1 watch thing for me. I've tried to sit down to watch pulp fiction 3 times now and just can't get through it. It's not terrible, but it's not great either. His movies are like the music from the 80's, no one can explain why they like it... but they absolutely do. lol
I have no idea why QT is so popular with film critics, unless they believe "the more sensationalized or confusing, the better". Films directed by Clint Eastwood ("Gran Torino") or even Mel Brooks ("Blazing Saddles") are more entertaining!
I think it's just because he dominates the cult genre. I hate putting him there because he has SO many fans, but in reality if you sit down with 7 of your friends that have never seen a QT film, 1 might become a hard core fan, the rest will walk away never watching that movie again.
i didnt like the movie much....but still it earned 9/10 at imdb.com....Probably it has something special which i cudnt figure out....
