Reaction: Those are pretty solid numbers for a comedy from the studio - not earth-shattering, but considering the R-rating and the content, we're happy with the numbers.
"Director Guy Ritchie and writers Ellis and Malone have delivered a violent, black comedy with several laugh out loud moments thanks to the off-kilter script and bizarrely clueless characters." - Clark Davis, JoBlo.com
"Pulp might simply be too strange and mean spirited for a lot of audience members. I'll admit that I did laugh out loud a few times, but at the end of the day I struggled to care about the characters and the story felt too episodic at times." - Allen Poole, AV Club
"The weird details are what made this film special to me. A crime lord who hates the French, a boxer who gladly takes a dive, but my favorite characters were the bickering gay couple played by Statham and Farrell - both way out of their comfort zones in this one." - Reggie Dunn, Sacramento Bee
