Just great!

Rating: 10/10 (4 September 1999)

This is Tarantino`s first movie as a director. I can just say that he did a great job! We see many good actors, examples are: Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Chris Penn and my favorite actor: Steve Buscemi. I would say that his performance in "Reservoir dogs" is his best ever. He plays the role of a paranoid, big mouthed and cynical gangster. Harvey Keitel plays the role of an more calm, experienced and "caring" type of gangster. I would say that the rest of the actors did a great job too.
What I like about the film: I love that the gangsters is the main- characters and we develop a sympathy for them during the movie. We can see the other side of crime, not just the usual "goodguy" view. I like that we see the plot from several points of view and in the end it narrows out to a climax and a sudden end. This technique is, in my point of view, Tarantino`s specialty. The dialogues is also superb. They are so natural and catchy that this spices up the action and makes it a really good film.
Absolutely recommendable! 9 out of 10 STARS.
