The movie comes to a group of people known by their code names through a large number of rambling conversations. They are the most daring Mr. Fan, the most powerful Mr. Bai, the most merciful Mr. Jin, the most loyal Mr. Orange, the most loyal Mr. The long-lived Mr. Lan and the best driver Mr. Brown. They are a group of six gangsters gathered by mob boss Joe Cabot and his son "Goodfella" Eddie to plan a trip to a jewelry store to rob a shipment of natural diamonds. These six people don't know each other, and they don't even know each other's names. In order to keep secrets, Joe uses the color as a code name and stipulates that they can't reveal any private matters between them. But during the robbery, six people were ambushed by the police, and Mr. Lan and Mr. Brown died on the spot. Mr. Bai took the seriously injured Mr. Orange back to the predetermined gathering place - a warehouse. After a while, Mr. Fan, Eddie and Mr. King also came here and captured a policeman alive. Several people recalled the scene at the time of the incident and concluded that one of the six must have informed the police. In order to find out the whistleblower, everyone interrogated and tortured the policeman, but the policeman kept his mouth shut and refused to tell the undercover agent. The film is a work with the tone and personal character of Quentin's creation, his signature film language is non-linear narrative and violent aesthetics. The non-linear narrative, which does not seem to be a good way to tell a story, in "Reservoir Dogs" presents the idle ridicule in the opening paragraph, which seems to have nothing to do with it. In fact, the director does it to prevent the audience from seeing the trend of the film foreshadowing. Non-linear narrative has great advantages in stories with multiple characters, which can save a lot of time in introducing characters' backgrounds. The scene where Mr. Jin cuts off the policeman's ear shows that violent aesthetics uses violent clips to show a joke on mainstream values. Contrast and contrast are included to show the director's discussion of evil (Mr. Bai in the gang attaches great importance to loyalty, and until the end still protects Mr. Orange, who exposed his undercover identity).

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.
