Tarrantino's Greatest Movie Of All Time

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2005)

I can remember when this movie was released on DVD, and I wondered why people were making such a big deal about it. At the time I had never seen a movie by Quentin Tarrantino and only knew of classics such as "Pulp Fiction" because of jokes from "The Simpsons".
One day I can remember watching "Pulp Fiction" and feeling a great sense of relief that it wasn't as bad as I had been told by friends. In fact, I thought it was brilliant.
So, I went out and bought all of Tarrantino's movies, and I watched them. Out of those 12 + hours I spent watching Tarrantino, the only hours worth anything to me were those 90 minutes spent watching "Reservoir Dogs".
The casting on the movie was perfect, with brilliant actors such as Michael Madsen and Steve Buscemi in starring roles. I can remember my entire stomach filling with butterflies when it was revealed that Mr. Orange is the cop, and I can remember goosebumps spreading across my body as Mr. Blonde tortured the hostage half to death. I can remember laughing when Mr. Pink questioned his name, and I can remember shouting: "No!" at the top of my voice when Mr. Blonde was murdered.
The movie showed me just how good an independent filmmaker could make one of his movies. This movie is pure gold.
