Right Duffy. The movie reminded me of Pulp Fiction in that it is a series of riveting scenes, but they don't consistently build the suspense or storyline throughout the movie.
Also, the car crash near the end reminded me exactly of the same crash in Pulp Fiction.
Agree with earlier comments, decision of the vietnman vet guy to go back and bring water to the dying guy in the car made no sense at all and was out of character.
Also, the way Woody Harrelson gets caught by the bad guy just walking up the stairs at a hotel, I thought that made no sense.
I'd give it three or four stars as a good movie, but it's not best picture. Compare this movie to other best pictures like the original Godfather - not even in the same league.
