A Classic Quentin Tarantino!

An all time classic that just can't be forgotten nor can not not be watched!

Who could ignore the genius of this film? One of Quentin Tarantino's greatest in my opinion. It's a classic an it's a must see if you're interested in film in the slightest! You can't say that you've watched films if you haven't seen it! I highly recommended this amazing criminal thriller because it's simply a masterpiece. It was released in 1994 and is set in a fictional country but we can just assume that it's set in a late 80's/early 90's America. The John Travolta/Samuel L. Jackson combo is like electric dynamite. The film is based around four stories which all end up being entwined. It opens with two small time thieves in a diner which don't seem to have much importance at first... Our main characters are two hitmen, Jules Winnfield and Vincent Vegas, who are trying to recover a stolen suitcase that belongs to their employer Marsellus Wallace. Vincent has also been assigned to take care of Marsellus' wife Mia by taking her out when he's not around. We also encounter a boxer, Butch Coolidge who has been paid by Wallace to go down in his next fight. All of these peoples' lives are weaved together thanks to a series of very unusual, funny and thrilling events!

It's a film like none other in the way that it's filmed and put together and the story line is sublime and original. The only unoriginal factor in this film is the mafia/mobster/crime idea that the film is based around. Apart from that, flawlessly enjoyable and amazingly original, especially for its time!

Enjoyability: 10/10
Originality 9/10
