Un, dos, tres, toca la pared!
on May 9, 2008
Posted by: cdeguzman

If you enjoyed The Others then you would appreciate this movie. The story focuses on character devlopment and your imagination. Its spooky, jumpy at times, and makes you pay attention. At first I didn't like this movie so much bc I was too busy comparing it to Pan's Labyrinth (which is what Guillermo Del Toro is basically known for). It didn't have the eyecandy that Pan's Labyrinth had but I like how the story unravelled and how the ending closed in on you (well at least that's how I felt). I remember the character, Tomas's face when they unmasked him. You feel sorry for him bc he is forever trapped in the innocence of a child yet he is haunting and scary bc his intentions are not something you'd want on your agenda! And I will never forget the chant that the orphans say in the beginning and throughout the movie: "Un, dos, tres, toca la pared! "(One, two, three, knock on the door!) Nursery rhymes and childhood songs now scare me bc I start to think that they may have an underlying meaning! It takes a little warming up to, but this is definitely a good spooky story.
What's great about it: Originally spooky
What's not so great: Not as appealing visually as Pan's Labyrinth
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're tiny, we're toony, we're all a little looney,
And in this cartoony, we're invading your TV!
We're comic dispensers, we crack up all the censors,
On tiny toon adventures get a dose of comedy!
So here's Acme Acres, it's a whole wide world apart,
Our home sweet home, it stands alone, a cartoon work of art!
The scripts were rejected, expect the unexpected
On tiny toon adventures it's about to start!
They're furry, they're funny, they're Babs and Buster Bunny,
Montana Max has money, Elmyra is a pain!
Here's Hamton and Plucky, Dizzy Devil's yucky,
Furrball's unlucky, and Gogo is insane!
At Acme Looniversity we earn our toon degree,
The teaching staff's been getting laughs since 1933!
We're tiny, we're toony, we're all a little looney,
It's tiny toon adventures, come and join the fun!
And now our song is done!
What's great about it: It's TINY TOON ADVENTURES!!!

One of the most influential and popular films of the 1990's finally gets the DVD treatment it deserves on this fantastic two-disc set from Miramax. Video and audio quality are both stellar: the new anamorphically-enhanced widescreen transfer shows off the cinematography in all its colorful, kitschy glory and the stereo soundtracks (DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1) dish up a punchy, crystal-clear soundtrack that is guaranteed to give the stereo speakers a workout. Pulp Fiction also offers a staggering array of extras guaranteed to keep film fans occupied for hours on end. First up is a subtitle trivia track that replaces the usual commentary track. Some fans might be disappointed that they don't get to hear Tarantino's enthusiastic musings in audio form but this exhaustive trivia track makes up for this by supplying every bit of minutiae that a fan could want to know: it covers everything from the film's inspirations to on-the-set stories to explanations of the many symbols and references used in the film. There is also a fantastic new documentary that uses interviews old and new and a variety of background footage to create a slickly-edited and fast-paced portrait of the history and influence of Pulp Fiction. Fans will be pleased by the inclusion of deleted scenes that are set up with on-screen intros from Tarantino, video clips of Tarantino directing a pair of the film's scenes and the inclusion of the infamous Palme D'Or acceptance speech that features the director having to fend off a zealous heckler as he makes his remarks. Elsewhere, this special edition represents the critical response to Pulp Fiction with an episode of Siskel and Ebert devoted to the Tarantino phenomenon and a gallery of text articles that analyze the film. The package is rounded out with a great episode of the Charlie Rose Show that features Rose interviewing Tarantino at length, a production design featurette and a barrage of trailers and publicity material. In short, Miramax's special edition of Pulp Fiction is both the definitive edition of this film and a thorough primer on its enduring influence on the world of filmmaking.

Best Quentin Tarantino movie ever
on December 8, 2007
Posted by: cdeguzman

This is undoubtedly Quentin Tarantino's best movie ever, definitely a must-have for your collection. It will not fail to keep your interests as something is going on all the time. The movie intertwines the stories of 3 characters and ties them all together. The witty dialogue, great music, and vibrant characters played by a SUPER STAR cast (Uma Thurman, John Travolta, Bruce Willis, Ving Rhames AND Samuel Jackson!!! You can't get any cooler than that!) make for the ultimate movie recipe. I have seen this movie countless times and it never gets old! There are SO many one-liners that you will find yourself repeating and making references to. This movie has been spoofed by so many others including The Simpsons. However, be aware that this is an ADULT movie and for mature audiences due to the strong violence, language and mature content. There are some sexually explicit references made in the movie but no sexually explicit scenes. If you enjoyed this movie and have not seen any other Quentin Tarantino movies, then I recommend watching Reservoir Dogs. It is similar in the story style (with the intertwining plot) but not as fast-paced as Pulp Fiction=)
What's great about it: everything
What's not so great: There are NO cons!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!
