Quentin Tarantino's
second outing as director/screenwriter shifts from the tight plotting
and characterization of Reservoir Dogs to a sprawling,
meandering format that (barely) weaves three urban crime stories
together. Tarantino, a talented writer, goes on several banal
dialogue binges and then adds his customary unsettling explosions
of violence. On a few occasions, the mixture is gritty fun; on
more than a few others, it becomes tedious. With interesting performances
by John Travolta, Bruce Willis, Rosanna Arquette, Eric Stoltz,
Samuel L. Jackson and Maria de Medeiros.
