"Reservoir Dogs" is a great action film. Quentin Tarantino is one of my favorite directors, and this is one of his classics. It has a group of criminals, trying to diamonds from a jewelry store when things go wrong. The group consists of Quentin Tarantino, Chris Penn, Tim Roth, Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi, Michael Madsen, and Edward Bunker. And led by Lawrence Tierney. The film consists of the group trying to figure out what went wrong with the heist, because the police almost captured them. This film is a great story and it is a great film that only deals with a couple of hours for the characters.
This film is so great mainly because of how much Tarantino is such a genius. When looking at the cinematography and each shot filmed it is unbelievable how knowledgeable Tarantino is. He is amazing and I am glad he is still making films today and was successful with "Django Unchained." The cast is also great in this also, Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi, and Tim Roth were all fantastic. And Michael Madsen was almost frightening how crazy he was in this film. Chris Penn was hilarious and he brought the character similar to Joe Pesci in "Goodfellas" in that he was funny but he would also punch you in the face. Lawrence Tierney was spectacular at leading the dogs and creating a mob mentality in this film. This film is a classic and regardless it is filled with slurs and gun shots and gun wounds, which might turn off some people but it is an awesome film.
Grade = 92/100 = A-
