What, does it have hidden meaning or "deep sociological commentary"? It makes you reevaluate your life?

Is any of the excessive violence and swearing justified and not intended to appeal to the adolescent popcorn eaters (sorry, it's not me who started the age argument )? The style is something relatively fresh (doesn't mean I have to like it, now, does it?), but where is this substance you speak of?
In Pulp Fiction's case, I'd argue that the brilliance of the dialogs comes from their style, not from their meaning.
