Genre: Drama / Action
Director: Quentin Tarantino

Pumpkin (Tim Roth) and Honey Bunny (Amanda Plummer) are thieves who rob a coffee shop. Meanwhile, mob kingpin Marcellus Wallace (Ving Rhames) sends hit men Jules Winfield (Samuel L. Jackson) and Vincent Vega (John Travolta) to retrieve a briefcase, and, later, Vincent takes the boss's wife (Uma Thurman) out on the town. Then there is prizefighter Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) who Marcellus has told to throw a fight. These stories and more overlap into one great tale dealing with unsavory characters who quickly become very real to the viewer. "Pulp Fiction" is certainly a movie that will not disappoint, and the pace never lets up. In addition to receiving the Oscar for Best Writing, the film received six other nominations, including Best Picture, Actor (Travolta), Supporting Actor (Jackson), Supporting Actress (Thurman), and Director.

| | A psychological thriller where buckwheats arent pancakes! | Chick 'O Flix 03/22/2009 | | Christopher Walken, James Caan, Treat Williams and Andy Garcia lead a cast complete with 5 star headliners and a dark script into one of the great bargaining, murder for hire screw ups that is truly of the suspense genre. Wait and listen for the word "buckwheats" in almost every scene, but make sure you know what it means. It is a very dark tour of Denver, wether you're dead or alive.Enjoy. |
