User Comments for Reservoir Dogs


Gorka       (9 out of 10 )

One of the best films I have ever seen. Tim Roth excellent.
Ace       (10 out of 10 )

My 2nd favorite Tarantino script, next to True Romance.
adam       (10 out of 10 )

There is no real reason to comment on this movie, it's simply one of the best films ever made and it will always go down in history as one.

Script is wrong - has Mr. White and Mr. Pink reversed in the restaurant scene. In the movie, Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi) is the one who doesn't want to tip, and Mr. White (Harvey Keitel) is the one arguing in favor of the waitresses.

I saw this after Kill Bill & Pulp Fiction so I was expecting a lot out of it. I wasn't impressed.
Molly    (10 out of 10 )

They got the characters mixed up in the restaraunt scene. Mr Brown is the one talking about Madonna getting dicked, Mr. Pink Doesn't tip and Mr. Blue and White are supporting the waitresses. Dude.
El dependiente    (8 out of 10 )

By far the best Tarantino movie.
Marco    (10 out of 10 )

I don't understand why in this script Mr. White says "I don't tip"! In the movie Mr. Pink says it! There are some errors.
King Of KINGS    (8 out of 10 )

I don't understand why Mr.Pink is talking about "Like A Virgin", in the movie it's Mr.Brown.

Once in a great while a movie comes along that changes the way people look at movies. While effects and action do help to move a story along, if you don't have great dialogue, you don't have a great movie. This movie is an excellent example of a movie that didn't have a lot of funding, yet blew audiences away and holds a place with many people as one of the best films of the 90's. This is the movie you watch during the summer on those late nights and just marvel at how great it is. An ideal summer movie, genius performances out of the actors, brilliant writing and directing, and a stunning achievment. The dialogue is what makes this film. The action adds to the film's image. Reservoir Dogs will always be remembered. It will never be forgotten.

When Quentin originally wrote the script he wrote the part of Mr. Pink for himself. When production started however, he declined the role but wanted to still be able to give the "Like a Virgin" speech so they re-wrote that part of the script real quick.

Yeah! Tarantino is brilliant.
Paulson    (10 out of 10 )

The best independent film ever in existence. How one man can create a classic from a modest budget and little experience is beyond reasoning. It's pure talent and all genius.
Patrick    (10 out of 10 )

It's been done before. Lines get changed during production. It doesn't matter that Mr White didn't deliver the "I don't believe in tipping" speech. Steve Buscemi did a superb job. It actually fit his character better than Harvey Keitel's. Maybe the director noticed too. It's brilliant work by Tarentino.
Andrea    (10 out of 10 )

Awesome movie!
Jeffrey    (10 out of 10 )

Great movie! One of my all-time favorites!
mr. Black    (8 out of 10 )

I renember watching a scene of it in 100 Greatest scary moments on telly, and I found the bit where he cut of the cops ear grusome. And the cop was tied to the chair and gagged. He was all bloody as well. Can someone else comment on what I said here.
TheSkyNinja    (10 out of 10 )

Mr. Pink is talking about "like a virgin" because tarantino wrote that part for him but later played mr. Brown instead. He probably felt that he could do that part the best. Effing best movie ever.
Max    (10 out of 10 )

One of the best movies ever. Steve Buscemi and Harvey Keitel rule!
Chris O'Connor    (8 out of 10 )

The only reason I gave this movie a 8/10, is because of the conversation over tipping. In my opinion, I thought it to be a terrific movie. All over the internet, people were saying the language, especially the word "Fuck" was used a lot. It was, but it wasn't THAT bad.
Jimmy    (10 out of 10 )

You guys really need to stop commenting on the fact that in the restaurant scene, Mr White and Pink are switched, along with Brown and Pink. Sure, it's different in the movie, but that doesn't mean that the SCRIPT is wrong. That means that while making the film, Tarantino switched the characters. This is the movie how it was originally written. This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. God, I love this movie.
Blake Z    (10 out of 10 )

This movie has one of the best scripts I have ever seen. Others can say what they want about Tarantino but I see him as an influential directer, and writer. In R-Dogs he shows his talent off again creating characters that make you laugh when you're supposed to laugh and feel suspense when you're supposed to. Not many Writers/Directors can do this, but if the movie has this effect it creates a wonderful experience for the audience to enjoy. Not to mention this flick includes actors such as Steve Buscemi and Harvey Keitel (I find it amazing Tarantino got these guys to be in hi first film!). If you are into pulp movies such as Desperado this movie will blow you away.

Very good film. Thinking of other movies with a similar story and I can think of many with the same idea, a heist. But this movie had this cool idea of exploring what happens after the plan goes wrong. Stand-out idea this one. Cool dialogs too. Steve Buscemi. Where is he these days?
Erik       (5 out of 10 )

I am sorry to be the only negative response on this page, but, I don't feel like everyone else that this movie was all that great. I had to watch it for a class project and I need the script, henceforth, my presence on this site. I was very bored throughout and the Mexican standoff as a climax at the end didn't do much for me. I know Tarantino is very symbolic and I saw the symbolism throughout the movie, but the vibe I got from this movie, like most Tarantino films, was that his main focus was to jam pack it with action and gore. I'm not a big fan of his for this reason. By the way, the Hannibal Lector movies were independent. Those were the best independent films ever.

Reservoir Dogs is an excellent film. Those of you who are confused by the error in the restaurant scene with the characters appearing to be muddled should keep in mind that this is just a draft, not Tarantino's finished script.
Butch    (10 out of 10 )

No matter what anyone thinks, Quentin Tarantino is probably the best writer, director and actor of all. His dialogs are funny, the stories are very interesting, the music is cool, and he always got the best actors. Who else gets for his first movies actors like Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi, Michael Madsen, Tim Roth, Bruce Willis, Samuel L Jackson, Pam Grier, Uma Thurman, John Travolta, Ving Rhames, Chris Penn and so many other big Legends. This guy is even acting in his own films, but he always keeps the best characters for the rest of the cast. Quentin Tarantino is a genius. Reservoir Dogs is the best heist movie ever made.
qt_fan       (10 out of 10 )

Another one of quentin tarantino's excellent screenplays. With witty dialogue and some gruesome scenes! One of tarantino's best along with pulp fiction.
TheNakedGenius       (10 out of 10 )

Tarantino is a movie god. He writes about stuff no-one else would have the balls to. It's his use of pop-culture that sets him apart, plus pretty much everything else he does in his flicks. But to me the best bit is his music its beyond perfect and every song is amazing. Little Green Bag at the opening credits of R-Dogs is his best choice yet, although Misirlou at the credits of Pulp Fiction is insanely funky.
