So yeah a lot of people seem to regard this movie as a classic and Quentin Taranrino's best work however despite being a big fan of his later work (Kill Bill and onwards) I could never get into Pulp Fiction, I mean sure it has some quotable lines and some notable moments but for the most part it is fairly boring and I am not exactly sure what the point or the overall narrative is supposed to be, it just seems to follow the random occurances of some people wrapped up in a life of crime with the events not exactly playing out in order.
Why is this movie held in such high regard?

It’s good but not nearly as good as Jackie Brown.

Jackie Brown is his best movie.
Pulp Fiction is just flashier.

It’s good but not nearly as good as Jackie Brown. Ive never watched Jackie Brown all the way through, really more a fan of his works Kill Bill and after, Inglorious Basterds being in my opinion his best.

I do consider it a great film, but I don't care enough to put effort into convincing other people of it. Like what you like.

I'm pretty sure you can get it. Amazon is selling the DVD for $5.99. Or if you just want to rent it, you can stream it for $2.99.

Why is this movie held in such high regard? and this: Yeah I dunno mang I really don't see what is so great about those scenes or what about them makes the film so great, unless of course there is some hidden symbolism I am not seeing? The first scene being a rather forgettable scene where Bruce Willis tries to convince a mentally handicapped woman to get on a deceased man's chopper and while the second is probably one of the more iconic moments in the movie I still don't exactly see what is so great about it as it is not the most interesting scene with just 2 people performing an outdated and quite frankly dorky dance while on a sort of mock date.

Well trying to convince other people to like something they don't is a fools errand as most people have a reason for not liking the things they don't like (unless of course they haven't seen the thing in question and are mostly basing their judgements off preconceived notions), however you can still add to the discussion by saying what you like about the film and why you personally think it is a great film?

It's between ok and best movie in the world I agree. It's simply a great film. That's why I didn't vote.

Reservoir Dogs isn't professional enough, lots of amateur mistakes. I loved the diner " tipping " discussion scene, but were there any mistakes in that scene ? But yeah like someone else said, it is between ok and best movie in the world.

Is there an option in between best in the world and okay? When I created the poll I thought the "Yeah mang its da bestest movie in da wurldo!" would be interpreted as a slightly hyperbolic representation for the "yeah the movie is great" option and not taken quite so literally.

It’s good but not nearly as good as Jackie Brown. It’s good? I couldn’t really get into it, although I only watched like half an hour of it but I loved PF, like all of Quentin Tarantino’s movies but Jackie I just couldn’t get into somehow, maybe it was because my ex husband wouldn’t stop yada yada while we were watching it at the time back then, it was a few years back, he would never shut up when watching movies IDK but at the same time that one did seem a bit boring to me compared to the other Q T movies. Hmmm, maybe I’ll give it another shot sometime

Cause you know, or as you know I LOVE all of Quentin Tarantino’s movies, I’m like a die hard fan of his lol but it’s like this is the only one I couldn’t get into and I feel really bad about it cause it’s HIS movie.

You should definitely give it another shot if you want to, it's still a good movie, but like you said before, it's really slow and to me felt more like an early Coen Brothers movie than Tarantino.
