Trendy teenagers and young adults,
attuned to oblique or perverse associations, are likely to
recall the opening riff from PULP FICTION - in which John
Travolta impresses his fellow hit-man by explaining that the
French call a quarterpounder with cheese a royale.
The plot is separated in
three different stories. These three stories fit
perfectly to each other. The first is about John
Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson, two hit men who have to
get a briefcase for there boss (Ving Rhames). The second
is about Bruce Willis, a boxer who betrayed the boss of
Travolta and Jackson. The third is about Tim Roth and
Amanda Plummer, who rob a restaurant. It happens that
Travolta and Jackson are at the same moment in the very
same place. They have a couple of problems on there way,
Harvey Keitel is their saviour and Travolta has a hard
time with the wife of Ving Rhames (played by Uma
Thurman). It sounds very intricate, sometimes it is, but
most of the time it is easy to follow. |
