Review

There is many people who are not living on the path of righteousness. Vincent and Jules are one of those people. They work for a gangster called Marvin and they solve his problems with problematic persons who have done wrong in the world of wrongdoers.

In this movie there is many totally different scenes what feels at first like events without any bigger meaning except the small stories itself, but later those scenes starts to feel like a pieces of a puzzle which find their place on the picture. It is also interesting how scenes jumps in time so the story of this movie and lives of those characters is not shown in linear way.

This was an excellent movie even tho it was from time to time quite brutal like all other Tarantino movies what I have seen previously. I probably have seen it once before in my youth, but cannot be sure.

Tarantino have a great skill to build scenes. Dialogue are excellent and realistic, characters have personalities and scenes what happen takes quite often abrurd scales but still does not feel absurd in a wrong way. Direction is great and the pace of the movie just works.
