Pulp Fiction

If not the best, this is undoubtebly one of writer, director, Quentin Tarantino's best work, released in 1994 the movie follows the story of two hitmen, Vincent and Jules. We all know of buddy cop movies, well this realease is a buddy hitman movie, with so much twist and turns it might leave you feeling dazed as the viewer is flung around characters that incounter and interact with each other in a kind of predestined way. I don't know which was my favourite character in this movie as everyone involved delivered a great performance, even Tarantino himself made a good cameo appearance. Pulp fiction must be the only movie too make me feel confused about whether to laugh or be horrified as the very dark humour is prevalent all the way through the movie giving it a kind of twist which made it more interesting to watch as you're left on the edge of your seat waiting for the next shocker.
