Mister Mister - Reservoir Dogs review by CP Customer
I can still recall seeing Reservoir Dogs for the first time and stumbling out of the cinema, shocked by the experience. Here was a film about a botched bank robbery that brought a certain freshness to the genre, although its use of violence remains self indulgent and thoughtless. This blu ray features a strong high definition transfer but this format highlights the low budget origins of the film. The gritty urban feel of the environments and blood letting are very noticeable by their limitations. This doesn't detract from the fabulous dialogue and soundtrack which remain key components. With the exception of Pulp Fiction its a real shame Tarantino hasn't challenged us much since this explosive debut.
