Synopsis:
In a flurry of cool music, stylish editing and quick-fire one-liners, Pulp Fiction shook the filmmaking world when it burst onto our screens in 1994. Pop culture has never been the same again. Still fresh, still vibrant - Pulp Fiction`s long anticipated arrival on an astounding two disc collector`s DVD assures the film`s place in the pantheon of all-time greatest movies. This is the ultimate Pulp Fiction experience. Re-authored on DVD and packed with unmissable extras, Tarantino`s controversial and critically acclaimed gem is a must-own for every film-lover and DVD enthusiast.
Tarantino throws us into a world of colourful characters in the seedy underbelly of modern day Los Angeles. In an exhilarating whirlwind tour we are introduced to three interconnected stories told in a fast-paced collage of music, drama, violence and comedy. The film opens with two small-time thieves, Honey Bunny and Pumpkin - a pair of lovers who hold up a diner. Next is the story of dry-witted duo Vincent Vega (John Travolta - Swordfish, Face/Off) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson - Unbreakable, Jackie Brown), two hit men on duty for the "big boss" Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames - Mission Impossible, Bringing Out The Dead). Marsellus` sexy wife Mia (Uma Thurman - Batman and Robin, Gattaca) takes a dangerous liking to Vincent, she insists he take her out and shows her a good time. The third segment of the interlocking stories focuses on a down-and-out boxer Butch Coolidge - (Bruce Willis - Unbreakable, Armageddon) who finds himself on the run from the powerful grasp of Wallace. This section is the darkest of the three but characteristically Tarantino still manages to bring humour to a gruesome tale. It is not until the final dramatic show-down that we realise how all the stories relate to one another.

Your Opinions and Comments
The film gets a DTS audio track, but is extremely similar to the DD 5.1 and the picture is grainy at times.
Extras wise the disc is full of them, don`t get to worked up over Deleted Scenes, they arn`t that interessting, but the rest is documentaries with a lot focusing on Tarantino, he likes to talk alot and occasionaly gets on your nerves. The rest is the usual Trailers and Studio Making of`s.
