Pulp Fiction (18)
TOTAL FILM RATING Submit a review
BY: Total Film Feb 1st 2000 FILED UNDER: DVD
Five years on and Tarantino's epic still rewards repeat viewing. Fresh and deeply funny, it retains its power to both repel and fascinate. A pastiche of old Hollywood studio movies, with a post-modern veneer and irony-heavy existential rambling, this triple tale of troubled gangsters works. Why? Because beyond the wisecracks, ultra-violence, twisted, time-jumping plot and wickedly funny scenarios, you actually care about the characters.
DVD Extras:
None. Whatsoever. Extensive interviews with Tarantino and deleted scenes have already been given an outing on the TV, yet there are no extras on this disc. A director's commentary alone (you can just hear Tarantino jabbering away now) would have shunted this into must-buy territory. You know what they call a DVD like this in Europe? An Ashtray Royale.
