| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Reservoir Dogs |
|---|
This is a story about a group of men: Mr. White, Mr. Orange, Mr. Pink, Mr. Blonde, Mr. Brown, and Mr. Blue, who are hired by a crime lord and his son to pull off a diamond heist. However one of them is discovered to be a traitor and everything begins to go wrong, which eventually ends up in almost all of their deaths.

A very well put together crime drama. When a jewel heist goes terribly bad, a group of strangers is on the run from the cops and attempting to get away with the diamonds they robbed. The one thing working against them...someone in the group is an undercover cop. A story of betrayal,friendship and violence that is by far Tarantino's best film. An exceptional performance by Roth and Madsen.
