Pulp Fiction. No matter how many times I see it, I'm amazed at how good

-- how lush, the film looks... the framing, the colors, the faces, the objects... the whole hyper reality of it all. Andrzej Sekula shot it. I never heard of him till I just looked it up. Besides PF, Reservoir Dogs and American Psycho, I didnt recognize too many other films he shot. WHAT IS IT ABOUT PULP FICTION THAT MAKES IT LOOK SO GOOD?

3. Personally I found "Pulp Fiction" unwatchable.

I found it uninteresting and shut it off out of pure boredom.

To each his own I guess.

6. Hideously dull

I was predicting one turn of events after another, to the point I shut my eyes and literally napped the rest of the movie

4. we were mentioning that just this morning after watching that stinker...

of his = Hostel, what a piece of trash film making. thought PF to have been the last stylish piece he may ever do. more people in the project than even tarrantino could over-rule, some of the vignettes are flat out dumb-ass, but the center holds together as one big, lush, long, stylish 'heart shot'

5. It Was Okay

It was a good movie, but it never got me all gassed up.

7. I like the film, but not for cinematography

I like the film for it's structure and plot. Visually, I didn't even notice.
