Reservoir Dogs (15th Anniversary Edition) [Blu-ray]

Tarantino's first, in 4K. Movie looks great. The extras are taken from previous releases, still entertaining. This is a great movie, with some nice career making performances from Tim Roth and especially Michael Madsen, who is the standout in the ensemble. Would be nice to have Tarantino do some actual commentaries for his films, but he doesn't seem to be too involved in the home release versions of his movies at all. Although nice to see them starting to be re-released on 4K.

It's a great classic with many classic actors in it!

Classic movie, found it on deal. If you’ve never seen it. You should! Cast of talented actors. Would say if you can get it under 10-12, add to your collection.

Good movie, rating 4.7

Reservoir Dogs is still every bit as sharp, shocking, and stylish as when it first hit the screen. This 15th Anniversary Blu-ray edition gives the film the justice it deserves, with clean visuals, crisp sound, and plenty of behind-the-scenes extras that make it worth owning even if you’ve seen it a hundred times. Quentin Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs remains one of the most iconic and influential crime dramas ever made. The film’s gritty dialogue, nonlinear storytelling, and unforgettable performances from Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Steve Buscemi, and Michael Madsen make it a must-see for any film lover. Even decades later, the tension in the warehouse scenes, the dark humor, and the raw emotion all hold up incredibly well. The Blu-ray transfer quality is excellent for its age — colors are balanced, the film grain feels natural, and the audio mix does justice to the pulpy soundtrack and razor-sharp dialogue. This edition also includes several great bonus features, including behind-the-scenes interviews, cast reflections, and commentary that give fans a deeper look into how Tarantino’s style began to take shape. It’s a noticeable step up from the older DVD versions in both quality and presentation. If you’re building a collection of classic films or love crime thrillers that focus on story and dialogue rather than spectacle, this is an essential pickup. Whether you’re revisiting it for nostalgia or discovering it for the first time, the 15th Anniversary Edition delivers a definitive experience of Tarantino’s first masterpiece.

This 1992 film was the first written and directed by Quentin Tarrantino who also appears in the film as Mr. Brown. Over the years, I have seen most of Tarrantino's films but this was the first time I have seen "Reservoir Dogs" in this 2019 stream version on Amazon Prime. I had heard about the film through watching 1940s film noir and of course through seeing other Tarrantino movies. The film tells an over-the-top story of the heist of a Los Angeles diamond store. Five thugs are recruited for the job by mastermind Joe Cabot (Gene Tierney) and the heist is carefully planned. The trouble is that one of the thugs is an undercover cop. The heist goes awry with much senseless killing. The film is told in a non-linear manner from the perspective of each hoodlum so that the viewer gradually gets a complete picture of what transpires. Most of the film is shot in the cavernous warehouse where the gang is to meet up after the heist. There are also scenes of the failed heist and a long opening scene with the gang gathered together in a coffee shop before the robbery begins. There are many scenes of Los Angeles streets and places. The film has a feel of bravura and creativity. The acting is sharp and the dialogue colloquial and profane. There is a sense of spontaneity and abandon enhanced by the reference to popular culture, music film, and language. The film is also wildly violent in its action and in its language. It is known for a torture scene at about mid-point which many viewers have found nearly unbearable. For the most part, the movie seemed to me so self-absorbed, so full of gusto, and so extreme, that it lacked most of the grit of a classic crime movie. It is easy to have questions about the casual violence and killing in this film and in many of Tarrantino's later films. "Reservoir Dogs" has become a cult film and many viewers and critics rate it highly indeed. I admire the hubris and the style of this movie as well as its ability to provoke and entertain. I saw it as much more of a black comedy than a crime film. For me, the film was a guilty pleasure, but more. Robin Friedman

This is an absolutely amazing, ground breaking film and I adored it! Below, more of my impressions, with some very limited SPOILERS. It begins with eight dangerous criminals eating breakfast at a Los Angeles diner. Being what they are it is clear from the first moment that they are up to no good. The breakfast is hosted by Joseph "Joe" Cabot (Lawrence Tierney), an important, respected (and feared) figure in local criminal world and his seemingly less formidable son Eddie "Nice Guy" Cabot (Chris Penn). Although the atmosphere is supposedly light-hearted, it becomes very fast obvious that this is in fact a kind of solemn farewell party before the six guests go on some BIG mission. Those six men are: - Larry Dimmick a.k.a. "Mr White" (Harvey Keitel) - Victor "Vic" Vega a.k.a. "Mr Blonde" (Michael Madsen) - Freddy Newandyke a.k.a. "Mr Orange" (Tim Roth) - "Mr. Pink" (Steve Buscemi) - "Mr. Brown" (Quentin Tarantino) - "Mr. Blue" (Edward Bunker) The color coded names they use are of course Tarantino's tribute to the great 1974 thriller "Taking of Pelham 123". One of those six men is a traitor - and another one hides an even bigger, uglier, more horrible secret. For many of them this is the last day of their lives... Nothing more will be said. When it opened in 1992, this film was clearly an almost revolutionary event. Nothing like that was ever shown on screen before and it changed the whole face of world cinema - FOR EVER! The main strength of this film resides in the scenario and especially in dialogs. Quentin Tarantino introduced into the main stream cinema the use of extremely strong language, but in such a way, that it actually doesn't seem all that shocking - in fact it seems like just a socially respectable and acceptable way of communicating (but it isn't - just try to speak like that in your real life...). Another thing, used earlier, but NEVER on such scale, was to take low life characters and make them have really elaborated conversations on all kind of unexpected topics. And it worked BIG TIME. The twists of the scenario are another trick Tarantino used to the maximum. It becomes immediately clear, that in this films absolutely ANYTHING and EVERYTHING can happen - and it does. The non-linear narration, with flashbacks, is an old trick very much used in the cinema - already John Ford, Billy Wilder and Michael Curtiz did a masterful use of it in masterpieces like "The man who killed Liberty Valance", "Sergeant Rutledge", "Witness for the prosecution" and "Mildred Pierce" - but it is never an easy thing and it takes great skill to efficiently keep it under control. Well, with "Reservoir Dogs" and later with "Pulp Fiction" Tarantino took the art of non-linear scenario to the new heights of perfection. Tarantino himself claimed that this film was mostly influenced by Stanely Kubrick film noir "The Killing" from 1956, but I think I also saw here the influence of styles used by David Lynch (especially "Wild at heart") and Paul Verhoeven (especially "Basic Instinct" and to some extent also "Robocop"). That being said there is no question that "Reservoir Dogs", even if of course benefitting from some earlier inspirations, is a completely original thing. And that it is a rare, precious thing in modern cinema. This film had of course descendants even if, thanks God, nobody had the brilliant idea to make a sequel, prequel or spin-off. But "Pulp Fiction", Jackie Brown", "Kill Bill", the Tarantino segment from "Four rooms", Tarantino episode of "CSI" and "Grindhouse: Death Proof" (I didn't see his last two films and after watching the trailers I do not intend to) are certainly children of "Reservoir Dogs", as are the films written but not directed by Tarantino, like "True Romance" and "From dusk till dawn" (yes, I know, he also wrote "Natural Born Killers" - but I try to forget it...). Then, there is of course all the influence Tarantino had on the cinema, beginning with but not limited to, films made by his partner in crime Robert Rodriguez: "El Mariachi", "Desperado", "Four rooms", "Sin City", "Grindhouse: Planet terror", "Machete", "Machete kills" and the upcoming "Sin City 2". Amongst other Tarantino influenced things one let's just cite "Con Air" (one of my favourite comedies"), "Lucky Number Slevin" and especially the great "Fargo", as well as (at least to some extent) "Heat". Then of course there is the whole Tarantino influence on some great TV series - I am absolutely certain that the appearance of both "Shield" and "Sopranos" was at least a little influenced by "Reservoir Dogs" and "Pulp Fiction" and when watching "The Wire" I was certain that Omar Little was a little inspired by Tarantino thugs - as for Brother Mouzone and his faithful sidekick I am CERTAIN they were inspired by Tarantino. And that list is definitely not exhaustive. Bottom line, this is a film that simply must be seen for two reason. First, because it is a masterpiece and second, because it changed the history of cinema. Enjoy!
