No, you're not the only one.

People invent reasons to like 'Pulp Fiction'
mostly because pop culture has told them
that they are supposed to like it. When they
watch it and don't like it, their brain conjures
a reason to, so that they don't feel left out.

I've heard no less that 20 different explanations
for why people like that movie, and 90% of them
are complete bullshit.

Its no good, at all.

If people overanalyzed most movies as much as they
did PF, than people would like most films
just the same. They don't do that with most movies
because most films aren't an all access pass to
feeling cool and hip like PF is/was.

Thankfully, I'm cool and hip without liking it.

And my real beef with 'Pulp Fiction' is not the film
itself, but how bad it was for film: It ushered
in an era of superficiality that we haven't really
shaken yet....really fucked things up.
