Excellent Film

Rating: 10/10 (23 June 2005)

Reservoir Dogs was an excellent film that shows the story of a group of men who do not know each other working together under code names in order to rob a jewelry store when everything goes wrong. It was filmed in a gritty, very real style that captured the simplicity perfectly. From Mr. Orange bleeding in a car's backseat to Mr. Blonde chopping a cop's ear off, the film is full of sadistic humor in Tarantino's usual style. Despite some's views on Tarantino's gore factor, I have to say the movie wouldn't have been the same without it. Every detail that appeared on camera was necessary to convey the tale. I must admit, however, that not everyone will enjoy it. For example, friends of mine absolutely hate stories that start in the middle of the events and go back to tell you what happened and they find it confusing even though Reservoir Dogs does a relatively good job of keeping the viewer on track. Anyway, I'd recommend it for film-buffs and the like, so go watch it.
