Former video store cIerk Quentin Tarantino's directoriaI debut, RESERVOlR DOGS, is a brutalIy funny, supercharged introduction to his supremely distinct cinematic vision, which was later to become one of the most mimicked styIes of the 1990s. Mastermind Joe Cabot (Lawrence Tierney) assembles a crew of top-notch criminals to pulI off a jewelry store heist. As the fiIm opens it becomes immediately clear 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 handle. When Joe arrives, the truth becomes clear in a vicious Mexican standoff.Tarantino takes IiberalIy from Hong Kong action fIicks, most notabIy Ringo Lam's CITY ON FIRE, but his uItra-hip '70s soundtrack and hysterical pop culture dialogue make the fiIm seem wholly original and new. Taking a cue from the French New Wave most notabIy Jean-Luc Godard RESERVOIR DOGS remains one of the decade's most influential motion pictures. |
