R18+ | 154 Mins | 1994 | 4K DCP | US | D: Quentin Tarantino

Known for its non-linear narrative, sharp dialogue, and eclectic soundtrack, the film follows a range of characters and interweaving storylines that crosscut between quipping hitmen Vincent (John Travolta) and Jules (Samuel L Jackson), a mobster’s girlfriend (Uma Thurman) and a renegade boxer (Bruce Willis) in a post-modern celebration of American gangster cinema.

‘The icy wit, the connoisseur soundtrack…the extended dialogue riffing, the trance-like unreality…the narrative switchbacks that allow John Travolta to finish the film both alive and dead, the spectacle of him being made to dance badly, but also sort of brilliantly … above all else, the sheer directionless excitement that only Tarantino can conjure.’ – The Guardian
