Reservoir Dogs

CrimeThriller

Directed by Quentin Tarantino

A botched robbery indicates a police informant, and the pressure mounts in the aftermath at a warehouse. Crime begets violence as the survivors -- veteran Mr. White, newcomer Mr. Orange, psychopathic parolee Mr. Blonde, bickering weasel Mr. Pink and Nice Guy Eddie -- unravel. From TMDB

    What on earth does “a Reservoir Dogs style show of force” even mean, this is beyond “you missed the point of the movie,” it’s “have you literally not seen the movie”

    I’m sad to hear that Michael Madsen has died aged 67. I met him at the Kill Bill: Vol. 2 UK press conference in 2004. He also starred in Reservoir Dogs, Free Willy, Donnie Brasco, The Doors, Species, Die Another Day, Sin City, Scary Movie 4, The Hateful Eight, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

    Michael Madsen 1957-2025. Yet another figure from the action movie world has passed. (I wasn't planning on making any obit posts but this week had other plans.) The first thing I remember Madsen from was _Reservoir Dogs_ (1992), which I saw in the cinema. IIRC it had a very long theatrical run as an "unrated" film in a few cinemas in the UK because at the time the [BBFC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Board_of_Film_Classification) indicated they would give it an 'X' rating, precluding…

    You have to roll back the clock to having seen Reservoir Dogs first which is also an excellent movie. Pulp Fiction did what Reservoir Dogs did, but put it in a more commercial wrapper, meaning more people would watch and enjoy it. I remember watching the Zed scene the first time and flashing back to this scene: https://youtu.be/PGqB6JIUzBo And thinking "Oh, holy hell, here we go!" But as it turned out, the Zed scene wasn't anywhere near as... visceral... as the scene from Reservoir Dogs.

    The "meticulous" plan is actually full of predictable holes, but all the better for things going wrong spectacularly, which is what you want in a heist movie.

    I think QT has only made 2 actual movies. Reservoir Dogs and Hateful 8. Everything else feels like a series of “this is a cool idea for a scene” strung together to try and make everything fit into one film. It also why Pulp Fiction is his seminal work since that’s exactly what that movie is.
