Yes, it's a pulpy fiction work.

I can only say I had never seen anything as stylish, cleverly constructed, well written and electrifying as this milestone when I first saw it in 1994. What really pulled me in right from the start is what we’ve now come to know as a Tarantino trademark: the dialogue. When gangsters Jules and Vincent talk to each other(or all the other characters, for that matter) there is a natural flow, a sense of realism and yet something slightly over the top and very theatrical about their lines – it’s a mixture that immediately grabs your attention(even if it’s just two dudes talking about what kind of hamburger they prefer, or contemplating the value of a foot-massage). Then there’s the music: the songs Tarantino chose for his masterpiece fit their respective scenes so perfectly that most of those pieces of music are now immediately associated with’Pulp Fiction’. And the narrative: the different story lines that come together, the elegantly used flashbacks, the use of "chapters" – there is so much playful creativity at play here, it’s just a pure joy to watch. It features some of the most sizzling, iconic dialogue ever written; it has arguably one of the best non-original soundtracks ever - it’s such a crazy, cool, inspirational ride that you feel dizzy after watching it for the first time.
