gore and sadism, but frankly I found myself hoping for more of it. Anything, really, to relieve the sheer boredom. This is Quentin Tarantino’s worst movie, and that is saying a lot, given how bad Kill Bill, vol. I is. Pulp Fiction was Tarantino’s Citizen Kane, and it has been The Magnificent Ambersons ever since.

Snapple had become a hit through powerful grassroots marketing and distribution through small outlets and convenience stores.
