Pulp Fiction

O.k. It's interesting. There are some funny moments. It introduced the phrase "I'm gonna get medieval on your ass" to the vernacular. It showed Quentin Tarantino can do more than shoot inside mortuaries. It also, depending on whose history you care to believe, "catapulted independent cinema into the mainstream" on account of it made a lot of money. That extra half star is held back because Tarantino could do better, and did with Jackie Brown. And maybe also because every time someone gives him a four star review (even people with all of two readers), that incredible forehead gets a little larger.
