Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) are hitmen with a penchant for philosophical discussions. In this ultra-hip, multi-strand crime movie, their storyline is interwoven with those of their boss, gangster Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames) ; his actress wife, Mia (Uma Thurman) ; struggling boxer Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) ; master fixer Winston Wolfe (Harvey Keitel) and a nervous pair of armed robbers, "Pumpkin" (Tim Roth) and "Honey Bunny" (Amanda Plummer).

Pulp Fiction

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Injecting its compendium of crime tales with the patois of everyday conversation, Pulp Fiction is a cinematic shot of adrenaline that cements writer-director Quentin Tarantino as an audacious purveyor of killer kino.

... A controversial yet award-worthy combination of gorgeous dialogue, genre-literacy, guns and gore.

Rated: 5/5

Roger Ebert

Chicago Sun-Times

Quentin Tarantino is the Jerry Lee Lewis of cinema, a pounding performer who doesn't care if he tears up the piano, as long as everybody is rocking.

Rated: 4/4

Pulp Fiction may not be perfect (the Butch sequence struggles to reach the heights of the others). However, its highs are among the very best in cinema history.

Rated: 10/10

... a film that twists and turns and double backs on itself with the sheer delight of a narrative magician.

Santa Cruz Sentinel

There is a fine madness to writer/director/actor Quentin Tarantino's latest wonderwork, Pulp Fiction, which is certainly one of the most exciting films of the past 20 years and easily the most important film of 1994.

Rated: A+
