The storyline of the movie is very simple: an underworld boss temporarily formed a team to rob a jewelry store, but unexpectedly a police undercover was mixed among these people, so these people were ambushed by the police, and the rest of the team members They fought each other and killed each other because they doubted each other.

At the beginning, the protagonists wore black suits, black sunglasses, shiny leather shoes, cigarettes in their mouths, their hands in their trouser pockets, and walked slowly forward. You can see that these are the big guys. Each character is next followed by a close-up shot, with subtitles showing the names of the actors. But the key character Tim Roth's name is separated from others. The movie is wonderful, telling the audience through details that the so-called big men in front are just underdogs.

The subtitles in the title are not over yet. These Reserving Dogs are preparing to set off with great fanfare to complete some "feats". Suddenly the camera turns, and a man covered in blood appears in the back seat of the car, screaming, and his eyes are full of fear, The screams were filled with despair.

This scene is shocking. How could the orange dog, who was so arrogant just now, change into the car in a blink of an eye, facing the test of life and death. That's one of the hallmarks of Quentin's films, where people can't guess what's going to happen next, and then suddenly give an unexpected surprise.

The inserted narrative allows people to have enough space for resemblance. The white dog asks how the pink dog escaped, so the film naturally cuts into the process of the pink dog escaping; the pink dog goes to the bathroom to go to the toilet, and the white dog smokes outside alone Waiting for him, the development of the story has a break in the plot and time, so the camera cuts to the paragraph of the white dog; the golden dog opens the trunk of the car to show off the policeman he caught to the white dog, and then the camera cuts to the paragraph of the golden dog. ; At the last moment, the orange dog used all his strength to kill the golden dog in surprise, but he had to wait for the big Boss to come because of the serious injury. At this time, a breakpoint appeared in the movie, so the paragraph of the orange dog was cut. All the cuts are perfect and just right.

Reservoir Dogs quotes

  • Mr. Pink: Look, I ordered coffee. Now we've been here a long fucking time and she's only filled my cup three times. When I order coffee, I want it filled *six* times.

    Mr. Blonde: Six times. Well, what if she's too fucking busy?

    Mr. Pink: The words "too fucking busy" shouldn't be in a waitress's vocabulary.

    Nice Guy Eddie: Excuse me, Mr. Pink, but I think the last fucking thing you need is another cup of coffee.

  • Mr. White: You can't leave this guy with them.

    Nice Guy Eddie: Why not?

    Mr. White: Because he's a fucking psycho. And if you think Joe's pissed off, that ain't nothing compared to how pissed off I am at him, for putting me in the same room as that bastard!

    Mr. Blonde: See what I've been putting up with, Eddie? I fucking walked in here, I told these guys about staying put. Mr. White whips out his gun, he's sticking it in my face, calling me a motherfucker, saying he's gonna blow me away and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
