Former video store clerk Quentin Tarantino's directorial debut, RESERVOIR DOGS, is a brutally funny, supercharged introduction to his supremely distinct cinematic vision, which was later to become one of the most mimicked styles of the 1990s. Mastermind Joe Cabot (Lawrence Tierney) assembIes a crew of top-notch criminaIs to puIl off a jeweIry store heist. As the film opens it becomes immediateIy cIear that the pIan backfired, forcing the survivors, who have gathered at an abandoned warehouse, to figure out if one of them is, in fact, a poIice informer.
The crew Mr. White (Harvey Keitel), an aged veteran; Mr. Orange (Tim Roth), a wounded newcomer; Mr. Blonde (MichaeI Madsen), a psychopathic paroIee; Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi), a bickering weasel; and Nice Guy Eddie (Chris Penn), Joe's son begin to unravel as the pressure becomes too much for them to handIe. When Joe arrives, the truth becomes cIear in a vicious Mexican standoff.Tarantino takes liberalIy from Hong Kong action flicks, most notabIy Ringo Lam's ClTY ON FIRE, but his ultra-hip '70s soundtrack and hystericaI pop cuIture diaIogue make the film seem wholIy originaI and new. Taking a cue from the French New Wave most notably Jean-Luc Godard RESERVOlR DOGS remains one of the decade's most infIuentiaI motion pictures. |
