As someone who considers Pulp Fiction to be one of the best movies ever made, I was looking forward to seeing a movie made by the same writer/director about a group of criminals playing off each other after a heist gone wrong. And when the Dogs are arguing, stressing out, fighting in that werehouse, you can truly see the roots of Tarantino's style, because anything that takes place in that warehouse truly had me hooked. Me White and Mr Pink are definitely the standouts, with both actors giving a brilliant performance and their squabbles feeling realistic and tense. However, the film begins to lose steam once the story begins to flash back, showing dull and uninteresting scenes that feel as if they were only included to get the picture to an hour and a half. These sequences truly drags the movie down as the conversations aren't nearly as compelling, and feel unneeded as they hardly shed any light on the current situation that couldn't have been told through the chafacgers in the werehouse. Ultimately, Reservoir Dogs is passable, and a decent first effort for the genius that is Quentin Tarantino, but it pales in comparison to his later works, as I feel there's nothing here that memorable or interesting.

After a simple jewelry heist goes terribly wrong, the surviving criminals begin to suspect that one of them is a police informant. As i've said on my review for 'Pulp Fiction' i don't think that Tarantino is that good of a Director and this movie once again proves me right. The film has a cool story and a good premise but it has this Tarantino style of things that ruins it completely and even the good actors couldn't save it plus seeing Tim Roth getting a bullet in his stomach and still being alive with his entire shirt all bloody was just funny and not in a good way. (0/10)

This movie was Quentin Tarantino's directorial debut and is considered to be one of the best directorial debuts ever. You could tell he was destined for greatness. It's also easy to say that this was Steve Buscemi's best role. Like his later film "Pulp Fiction", it's told in an nonlinear form of storytelling. The final scene is still the final scene unlike that movie. The best scene is probably at the beginning with the tipping argument.Mr. Blonde is a complete sadist, yet he thinks it's immoral to not tip waitresses. I had seen bits and pieces of this movie before. It's certainly great, but not uh, one of the best movies ever made? I always want to see films in the Top 250. This movie tells the story of a diamond heist gone wrong. One of the six men involved is believed to be a snitch, but I won't spoil the rest of it. ***1/2

I think Reservoir Dogs is the best first movie. This movie is totally smell like Tarantino. Script is amazing, interesting and so funny. Characters are so original and unforgettable. I think Tarantino composed his genre in this movie. All actors are very good but Tim Roth's performance is so great. I love this film so much and I don't get bored to rewatch this crime masterpiece.
