They weresomewhat related, but there were no "Aha" moments for me. I kept wondering why we were being shown these events in a backwards fashion, as if any of those scenes explained what came before, and it didn't work for me. I've seen the movie three times. There are entertaining moments in it - I don't hate Tarentino, but I'll never have man crush on him the way a lot of movie critics do. And he recycles too many other movies' plot devices to be considered innovative for me. What some critics see as homage I see as cliche.
