I've read many times that Travolta didn't want to do this movie. It was Tarantino, being an Elmore Leonard fan, that told him he shouldn't pass. I've always felt Pulp Fiction and Get Shorty were a great one two. Aside from maybe Face/Off, I don't think Travolta was ever this good again.

Travolta was fantastic in Primary Colors!

I liked Michael, where he was an angel.
Good for the whole family.
I forgot he was even in Face/Off; all I remember is how much I disliked Cage.
General's Daughter was good.
I prefer the toad less raveled

I always thought Travolta was awesome in Broken Arrow Definitely one of my favorite performances of his.
He's good in Swordfish as well.

He was great/iconic in Pulp Fiction, but I prefer his work here. Unequivocally, Chili Palmer is one of his best characters (and performances).
Hey there, Johnny Boy, I hope you fry!

Be Cool. Pretty good film for a sequel. Cedric the Entertainer, Andre Benjamin, and Vince Vaughn were all terrific in this along with The Rock (who was hysterical BTW). Def worth a watch if you haven't seen it.

Yeah, it would have been great to see more Chili Palmer. I remember there was a sequel, but it flopped. I don't remember much abiut it other than thinking the Rock was funny.
