I did enjoy Reservoir Dogs, that's true. But Pulp Fiction was one of the most unendurable films I've ever had to sit through. I hated it. And not for the sensationalistic aspects of it, but for that unctuous quality that seems to ooze out of all of his pictures since RD. I don't prefer filmmakers who think they're being clever. There's got to be some level of humility before the craft.
