Roger Avary and Quentin Tarantino bring us the script of their lives in this 1994 classic. Sam Jackson is phenomenal with his portrayal of Jules, a current hit man who notices signs from above that make him realize that's time to call it quits. Uma Thurman brings her pizazz with her nice figure and wild acting chops that critics came to adore. Mr. Travolta plays it cool as he climbs back into the spotlight. He's just another hit man who LOVES to get high. He returns from Amsterdam and tells Jules all of the differences it has compared to the US, in a scene that you literally won't forget. Bruce Willis and Christopher Walken... that's all I need to say for those 2. I am super impressed with this script because it goes in non-chronological order. I guess that's why there were 2 writers instead of just Quentin. The only thing I disliked was the use of the N word. It literally was used as a replacement for "African American" and "black." I didn't like that one bit. Since I know Tarantino is not a racist, I'm cool with it. Anyway, it is great that the 2 of them teamed up to prevent disaster. Furthermore, this film is greatly written, scored, directed and casted.

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak from the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know that I am the lord, when I lay m lying vengeance upon you. (Varies)

A classic sophomore film from Tarantino. This is the first film I saw ge directed. The storytelling is wild and the whole full circle thing is super. Don't forget the dancing. However, I can't reccomend it morally due to pervasive laungauge, unless you watch it muted. However its got an evil theme with the briefcase so look at Christian reviews before you watch. I don't feel comfortable reccomending it because of that.
