The Height of the Heist Genre

Rating: 10/10 (30 August 2013)

Reservoir Dogs, simply put, is one of the best crime films ever made. A uniquely stylized viewpoint, combined with a colorful cast of specific and desperate characters allows this movie to live on forever in the crime genre. Trademark performances from Tim Roth, Steve Buscemi, Michael Madsen, Harvey Kietel, Chris Penn and others give the viewer every possible perspective in a room full of thieves and ex-cons. In particularly specific conversations, the men articulate exactly what level of society they come from over cigarettes and broken balls. The search later on for the rat in the disjointed time line gives the audience something to think about and although you find out early who the cop in the crew is, you still have to follow on to see what the future holds for him. Fantastic Film.
