Pulp is more of a cult classic, but its appeal and influence are nonetheless profound, and worth noting. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- A sempre presente narração em off é um dos muitos problemas do filme - especialmente se considerarmos que o narrador é justamente um escritor medíocre.

Rating: 7/10 -- It functions less as a pulpy mystery or gangster tale than as a spoof of same, albeit a spoof that retains a noirish sense of fate and power. Full Review
