Sounds like you have Samsung Firmware update #1. This has a known anamorphic bug with distributed Warner titles. You will need to get the Samsung Firmware update #2 to fix this problem.
Note: the firmware update #2 requires a different region hack which can be found at the 709 online site.

Pulp Fiction should have a small letterbox as its 2.35:1, but odd that Jackie Brown does too. Could well be the anamorphic bug as Chris says. Only solution is to get it upgraded via your Point of Purchase.
