Brilliant and not as violent as people say.

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2003)

I never really had much interest in movies.. but when I saw Reservoir Dogs for the first time I went out to buy it immediatly. Now I'm some1 you might want to call a "film- freak". This movie is not as good as Pulp Fiction.. but still Reservoir Dogs is a brilliant classic.
The storyline: Joe gathers 6 robbers that don't know each other, for a jewelry heist. He gives them names: Mr. White, Mr. Pink, Mr. Orange, Mr. Blonde, Mr. Brown and Mr. Blue. The heist goes terribly wrong because they got "set-up". Now they must try to find out who did it.
The movie itself doesn't show anything of the heist itself which is quite unique... You only get to see what happens after and what happens before in the form of flashbacks. The movie is often critizised for being too violent. I do admit the movie is violent.. but isn't all that bad. Violence is a thing that this movie has a lot of, but it isn't allways very graphic. Most of the violence happens off-screen, for example, the famous ear cutting scene.
Reservoir Dogs was Quentin Tarantino's movie debut, which is impressive. Pulp Fiction made the man immortal. Jackie Brown as his last movie is a bit less then his previous 2, but still a fine movie. Kill Bill will be his 4th... and I'm looking forward to it.
