A gang of thieves carry out an armed robbery on a Diamond warehouse. The police are after them so quickly that they suspect they have a rat in their company. This film starts right after the robbery, with flashbacks to before the robbery, and to the planning of the crime. We are also introduced to the main characters in flashback mode. Plenty of fast action, and plenty of blood and gore.

Someday I'll understand
Another must have for Tarantino fans! As usual with his movies - after it's over I question my own taste and judgement. More stars for more weirdness? Still I keep coming back for more like a confused philosophy student.

Movie is fantastic, 4k disc is beautiful
The movie itself is fantastic, if you're heavy into crime movies. You'll be hard-pressed to find anything better. The 4k disc is beautiful. Only thing better would be to see it projected from film. Maybe someday.

Reservoir Dogs, 15th anniversary on Blu Ray
Most all are familiar with this film and have discussed its storyline, music, acting, directing and everything else...so I won't. I will just review the transfer of this film to Blu Ray. If you're a Tarantino fan, this is one for you if you don't already have it. It firmly established him as a director while still early in his career and he has made many great movies since.I do have the standard definition DVD and have watched it numerous times but this will not be a side by side comparison, just a short discussion of the Blu Ray's quality.VIDEO....The transfer of the video is very clean with strong colors despite a muting of the entire color grading throughout the film. Contrast is excellent and details, even some of the very small ones, are clearly defined. The lines of the tiny tiles in the meet-up building are easy to see without a blurring of lines despite the depth of field which brings them slightly out of focus. I saw no dirt or artifacting at any time in the watching of this Blu Ray. Shot on film, naturally there will be a slight patina of grain but it is difficult to really see and is not a viewing problem in the slightest.AUDIO....Now this is a bit odd. For English, you have a choice of a Dolby EX 5.1 audio or a lossless DTS HD 6.1. That is not a typing mistake...the audio is 6.1. Okay, that is great but if they are going to upgrade to a 6.1 audio track let there be information for 6 channels plus the sub. There really isn't. The lossless audio provided clear and transparent dialogue that plenty easy to understand. The audio soundtrack is beautifully spread across the front sound stage and the stereo separation of the typical Tarantino soundtrack is simply great, however, there really is no use of the rear sound stage for anything other than some light ambient echo which is barely discernible. The front surrounds do get some discreet directionality from the left and right surrounds but not a whole lot. Yes, this movie has more dialogue than any real action but when the action does come in the second half of the film, though the sub works nicely for the gunshots, there is not much for the home theater to do. The volume levels are just fine so no need to play with your remote's volume control but, maybe the 6.1 track would have worked better on Tarantino's Django Unchained or Kill Bill 1 & 2.EXTRAS....Some fine deleted scenes and alternate takes of the ear cutting scene. Also a Criminal Minds type profiling of the members of the gang that I found psychologically interesting. From the old SD DVD, there was also included a 'Playing it Fast and Loose' Documentary and an interesting 'Pulp Factoids' extra that pops up little tidbits of info during the course of the film. I discovered this feature after I had finished watching the film. Next time I watch it, I will be sure to have it turned on.Finally, there were also 2 trailers for other films, 'Crank' and one of the 'Saw' films. I really dislike previews on any DVD whether it be Blu Ray or Standard def. You are being forced to pay for commercials when the disc space could go to an even better resolution feature film that you just paid for.All my reviews focus solely on the quality of the transfers to Blu Ray of both video and audio and I do hope that this review has been of some help to you in deciding upon your purchase decisions and that I am on the correct path with this type of review.Thanks for reading.

I got ya,uh-huh...you thought I didn't see ya now,dintcha?
Still likely my favorite QT movie of all time. No budget, no credits-to-finish action sequences, and dialog that seemingly goes nowhere... Yet somehow it is transfixing in its' delivery... After hundreds of viewings by now , and no sign of quitting any time soon.
