I kind of agree. Pulp fiction is almost completely sure-footed but there are just a few points where he gets carried away. For instance, the adrenaline shot is very funny but belongs in a different film because it just manages to overdo the implausibility - it breaks the (admittedly silly) science of Pulp Fiction's world. It would be fine in Kill Bill.
On the other hand, I kind of disagree, in that I like his silliness and it's quite useful in films like Inglourious basterds.never trust a man in a blue trench coat, never drive a car when you're dead |
