Summary: DVD transfer faithful to a 90's classic
Review: Featuring an excellent video and audio transfer as well as a widescreen aspect that retains Tarantino's original vision for the flick, Reservoir Dogs on DVD is an essential addition to any good DVD collection.

Summary: A very good movie
Review: This movie is one of the best I've ever seen. It has Tarantino's trademark of mixing the story up and creating a very good movie. You'll end up watching it more than once. Like (Pulp Fiction) and all his other movies.

Summary: Fascinating dialogue and unabated gore, great storyteller.
Review: If you like Tarantino's quirky dialogue played to a background of disturbing mobish "dirty work", you will love it. Tarantino may have forever changed the standards of acceptable movie dialogue with his style.

Summary: Excellent film, but its been done before
Review: I like this film alot, its got interesting (if slightly annoying) characters, but the nonlinear narrative was done by Kubrick in his crime thriller "The Killing" back in 1957.

Summary: A must See
Review: This movie has it all, action, drama, and the best the famous Quentin Tarantino non-linear plot. I watched the movie twice, the first time I watched it, it was mind blowing, but then I had to watch it again, the second time I saw the foreshadowning , and the whole movie just fell into place like a puzzle. GREAT Movie. Try to buy the Widescreen if you can.

Summary: Resevoir Dogs : a fascinatingly unique and intense film
Review: There are not very many films made now-a-days that can capture the emotional intensity that Quenton Tarintino's "Resevoir Dogs" does. This is a sheer treat to watch: the first-class cast (Harvey Kietel, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Steve Buscemi, Chris Penn, to name a few); mind numbing plot twists; and intriquit and unique camera angles that even Hitchcock would be proud of. "Resevoir Dogs" tells the intense story of a master criminal who assembles a group of 'professional' crooks to pull off the perfect jewel hiest. The jewel hiest goes terrible awry and the thugs spend most of the movie in an abandoned werehouse, where they discover that one of them is an undercover cop. Not sure which one, they banter and re-cover their tracks, leading to a climatic, even poetic, final scene.

Summary: Great Movie
Review: But I hate to break it to people who think Mr. Pink Lived the cops shot him down between the time where Mr. White was about to kill Mr. Orange who I hate. The best characters in the movie Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi) Mr. Blonde(Michael Madsen) I have always liked him and Steve. Yeah they really screwed both Mr. Blue and brown but especially Blue. I like to think in my head that Mr. Pink got away but he didn't. This story is Hamlet basically all of the main characters died. I loved the movie Quentin Tarentinos biggest mistake Kill Bill Volume 2

Summary: Stylized, intelligent--but someone tell Quentin he can't act
Review: To a degree amateurish, but to an equal degree compelling and original, Reservoir Dogs is a stylistic, gritty look at the gangsters of Quentin Tarantino's imagination. The story, such as it is, is the weak point of the film. The strange tale of an undercover cop who tries to bust up a family-sized gangster ring is just plain silly at times. The strong points, however, are many. Each character has a terrific, interesting voice; the dialogue is snappy and artistic; the music choices are inspired. And that infamous "ear" scene? Frankly, it's one of the few scenes that doesn't work. It just comes off as dumb.Think of Reservior Dogs as the rough sketch for a movie yet to come: Pulp Fiction. Pulp Fiction is superior in every respect, but it's a treat to see its progenitor.

Summary: Tarantino's "Little movie"
Review: "Reservoir Dogs" was Quentin Tarantino's low-budget heist movie that wasn't about a heist at all. With his knack for picking unique yet logical situations and exploding them onto the screen, he deftly takes us through the events that occur immediately after a failed heist. There's a rule about Quentin Tarantino films: the first time you watch them, you stay off-balance the entire time, never sure what's going to happen or who's going to die. The second time, you sit back to savor the dialogue and the details. Both elements are crafted with equal fervor in this film as in all of his others--a suspenseful, off-kilter plot coupled with masterful (and unique) execution. Of course, being so low-budget, this film is small in scale. The locations are few, and the fact that all of the really important events occur on one set gives the movie a very 'tiny' feel. It doesn't feel as detailed and comprehensive as "Pulp Fiction", or as sweeping and free-roving as "Kill Bill", but it has its own charm nonetheless. Memorable moments include Michael Madsen dancing enthusiastically as he brutalizes a young cop, Tarantino himself analyzing Madonna's music, and the stunning Hamlet-esque conclusion which leaves you with a decidedly bent mind. Despite its smaller scale, this is still a fine Tarantino picture and well worth the price. Highly recommended.

Summary: A MOVIE WITH POTENTIAL
Review: Of course, I bought this movie because I saw that it was directed by Quentin Tarantino. Overall, it was good, but there was a whole lotta dialogue and very little action. I was not expecting it to be like a "Kill Bill," just something that would be a little more interesting. If it had more action, I would have rated it a 5 star. Other than that, it was good.
