Pulp Fiction had been released on DVD quite a few years ago in a non-anamorphic, non-special edition version. It is nice to finally see it get the full special edition treatment (although this DVD is very similar to the Criterion Laserdisc). The new transfer is absolutely gorgeous. Colors are perfectly reproduced and the blacks are nice and deep. Until a high definition version comes out you will not see Pulp Fiction look an better than it does here. Both the DTS and Dolby Digital soundtracks are right where they need to be. Pulp Fiction never had sound effects flying all around your head but when the music kicks in you feel it.

I kind of knew that since the Criterion Laserdisc did not have a commentary that this DVD would not have one either. It is still a disappointment that Quentin didn't record one. In a way it does make since there are so many theories out there about what different scenes in the movie mean, there is little reason for Quentin to get into a whole lot of detail. The various documentaries along with the included articles and Charlie Rose interview help bridge the gap. If you have not seen it before, make sure you watch the American Theatrical Trailer. Definitely one of the best (funniest) trailers you will ever see. (The Merchant-Ivory music that starts it is classic)

If you truly love movies this is a must own DVD and if for some reason you saw the movie and did not like it, I think you need to go back for a second helping. (One nice bonus for those of you who own the original DVD version is that included in the package is a $5 mail in rebate.)
