Reservoir Dogs

All car scenes are obviously filmed with the car on a trailer.

In the opening scene in the diner, the size of Mr.

Blue's cigar.

When Mr.

White is talking with Joe Cabot and Nice Guy Eddie, he brings up a cigarette towards his mouth before the shot changes.

Then repeats this motion again immediately in the next shot.

When Mr.

Blonde first appears during White and Pink's fight, he raises his soda twice in a row to his mouth without removing it after the first time.

When Mr.

Pink carjacks the woman, the satchel of diamonds is on the street in front of the door.

In the next shot when he opens the door, the bag is gone.

There is no time for him to have stepped forward, kneeled and grabbed the bag, stood back up and tossed it into the car.

When Mr.

White and Mr.

Pink are talking about Mr.

Blonde going "psycho" at the heist, Mr.

White says he almost took Mr.

Blonde out himself.

When the two later confront Mr.

Blonde about his antics, Mr.

White says to Mr.

Pink, "You said yourself you thought about taking him out.

" When Mr.

Orange shoots Mr.

Blonde, when the camera focuses on Mr.

Orange after the shooting, you can see a whole bullet roll from behind Mr.

Orange instead of only the shell, which is the only part of the bullet that comes out of the gun after firing.

When Mr.

Blonde comes back with the gas can, the floor behind Nash is already wet.

Background while Mr.

White, Nice Guy Eddie, Mr.

Pink, and Mr.

Orange are driving to the heist.

When Mr.

Orange is in his apartment and is on the phone to Nice Guy Eddie, he walks over to his window and says he'll be right down.

At that moment you can see the top of the outside set piece.

The squibs on Mr.

White do not go off at the right time during the final stand-off.

The first time Eddie shoots, the squib doesn't go off and no bullet hole appears on Mr.

White.

The second time he shoots, the first squib goes off.

As Mr.

White is falling to the ground, the second squib goes off, even though no one shot at him.

During the standoff between White and Pink, the gun in Mr.

White's hand switches during shots from his left hand to his right.

In the fight scene between Mr.

Pink and Mr.

White, the warehouse lighting changes dramatically from shot to shot.

When Mr.

White and Mr.

Pink take Nash inside the warehouse and beat him, Nash's arms are chained behind his back.

In the next shot, his arms are chained before his chest.

During the commode story when Mr.

Orange turns on the hand dryer his hand is in a gun shape horizontally.

The camera cuts to on Mr.

Orange's left, and his hand is now in a gun shape pointed vertically.

Blonde opens his barber blade twice.

When Mr.

Blonde is pouring gasoline on Marvin Nash, Nash's legs are taped to the chair.

When the angle changes you can see his legs kicking up in the air.

And then they go back to being taped up.

When Mr.

Blonde duct tapes Nash's mouth shut, he tapes right over the bottom half of his ear.

At the time when he is about to cut it off the tape is below his ear.

When Mr.

Pink is shooting at the cops from behind the car, the fat cop is seen getting shot and falling twice.

Once when Mr.

Pink first starts shooting and a second time when he is seen shooting at Mr.

In Joe's office, when Mr.

Blonde stands up for the second time to face Nice Guy Eddie, he stretches his left arm.

The next shot shows him with the jacket hanging in his same arm.

The two ivories behind Joe's desk change repeatedly between shots.

When Mr.

Blonde is putting gasoline on Nash, he raises his left foot.

Before and after that we see that both feet are taped to the chair's legs.

After cutting Nash's ear off, Mr.

Blonde walks towards the door with the opened barber's blade in his left hand.

After he's opened the door he puts the left hand in his pocket and the blade has disappeared.

In the warehouse when Mr.

Blonde jumps off the car and takes off his coat he has a cigarette in his mouth.

In the close-up shot to his face, the cigarette is gone.

Reflected in a shop window as Mr.

Pink runs along the street.

Reflected in car window when Mr.

White opens the door after Mr.

Brown crashed it into the standing car.

When the police are chasing Mr.

Pink in the first flashback, they run by all the same stores twice.

Shadow visible behind Cabot's head as he gives out names.

When Nice Guy Eddie shoots Nash, the muzzle-flashes from the gun and damage to Nash's chest don't appear close enough together.

During Mr.

Orange's close-up during the naming session, the boom mic casts a shadow on Mr.

Blue's face.

Near the end, we learn that the cops are waiting for Joe to arrive at the warehouse before they make the bust.

Why, then, do the police (presumably a different team) show themselves at the robbery? Because of the gunplay involving civilians.

The amount of blood on Mr.

Blonde's sleeve during the "ear scene".

When the camera circles around Mr.

Orange in the bathroom, the shadow of the camera falls on the wall.

'Stealers Wheel' (qv)'s "Stuck in the Middle With You" was released and hit the charts in April of 1973, not April of 1974 as the radio DJ says.

After Mr.

Orange is shot, he is driven to the crew's hideout by Mr.

White.

Although Orange has received a serious stomach wound that bleeds profusely, White does nothing to stop the bleeding after laying him down.

In real life, the victim would have been dead in minutes due to such heavy blood loss, yet Orange survives until the end of the movie.

In the final confrontation between three of the crew in the warehouse, a frontal camera shot shows Nice Guy Eddie pointing a revolver at Mr.

White, supposedly ready to shoot him.

However, from this angle it is clear that the chambers of the revolver are empty.

In the shootout scene at the end of the film, when Mr.

White shoots Eddie, the gun is clearly not pointing in his direction, as he barely shifts his aim after he shoots Joe.

When Mr.

Pink is hit by a car a police officer can be seen standing on the intersection.

He is not visible in the shots before and after that.

Just after Mr.

White shoots the cops in the scene "An Orange/White Getaway", there is a close up of Mr.

Orange's face.

In the reflection of his sunglasses, where there is supposed to be Mr.

Brown sitting in a car, instead you see Mr.

Brown sitting in a chair.

During the "Commode" story, Mr.

Orange refers to _The Lost Boys (1987)_ (qv) as being released in 1986.

When Mr.

Blonde opens the trunk of his car to reveal his "surprise" to Mr.

White and Mr.

Pink, he puts his hand on the trunk before unlocking it.

When he does, the trunk clearly moves, showing he never locked it.

When Mr.

White and Mr.

Pink are talking in the room about what happened, Mr.

White gives Mr.

Pink a cigarette and takes one for himself.

He then lights Mr.

Pink's but then he only holds the lighter up to the end of his own cigarette without actually lighting it.

After leaving Mr.

Brown, during the steadicam shot following in front of Mr.

White and Mr.

Orange, there is clearly a group of crew members in the far background on a smoke break and drinking beverages, watching the scene.

'Stealers Wheel' (qv)'s "Stuck in the Middle With You" ends while Mr.

Blonde is pouring a trail of gas away from the cop.

The song is coming from a radio.

Blonde is shot at that point in the film and never touches the radio.

Yet the radio turns off for the rest of the film.

Nice Guy Eddie falls before Mr.

White's gun swings at him and goes off.

When firing at the police, the slide on Mr.

Pink's pistol locks back, indicating an empty clip, and yet he continues to fire without reloading.

When torturing Officer Nash, Mr.

Blonde leaves the building to retrieve a gas can from his car.

Re-entering the building, he does not close the door behind him.

When Mr.

Orange kills Mr.

Blonde to save Officer Nash from being burned to death, Mr.

Blonde falls to the floor at an angle where the door to the building is visibly closed.

When Joe, Mr White and Nice Guy Eddie shoot each other near the end of the movie, Mr White falls to his knees facing the windows.

In the very next shot, he is facing the ramp.

Pink breaks a car window with his elbow and it breaks into several large pieces.

Car window glass is tempered and as such would break into thousands of small pieces.

Mr White washes the blood of his hands twice both before and after Mr Pink also freshens up.

When Mr.

White brings Mr.

Orange into the warehouse at minute 11:23 you see a crew member and a trailer.

The door swings back at Mr.

White, then opens again; the crew member realizes he is in the shot and steps behind the trailer.

When Mr.

Blonde walks into the warehouse after getting a tank of petroleum from his car, he doesn't close the door.

But later in the same shot, when the camera rotates around the cop, the door is closed.

Flashback of Mr Pink running from the bank, you can see a camera crew on a dolly camera rig reflecting in the windows When Nice Guy Eddie is talking with Vic Vega about getting him a job at the docks, the position of his watch on Joe's desk changes between shots.

When Mr.

Pink asks what happened to Mr.

Orange, Mr.

White says that the cops shot him, even though it wasn't the cops who shot him.

When in the restaurant where we get the back story on Mr.

Orange, the number of wadded up napkins on the table changes.

In the flashback scene of Mr.

Pink running from the cops, he passes the same Ace Hardware store at least twice.

The cops can also be seen running past the same hardware store twice.

After the driver of the car that bumped Mr.

Pink while he was fleeing from the police gets tossed out of her car, we see the briefcase beside her on the street.

As Mr.

Pink is about to get in the car, the briefcase is gone.

I looked up the best heist films and this was #1 so I thought why not.. I was aiming for an Oceans 11 vibe but why bother when I could have Men Shouting In A Warehouse.

This is the best movie ever made. A perfect movie with all the emotions best communicated with the audience.

Quentin Tarantino, Harvey Keitel, Steve Buscemi & others star in this classic about a group of criminals who are ambushed by police as they try to steal diamonds during a heist that goes badly wrong.With some of the group dead & injured, the remaining criminals come to the conclusion that there's a snitch amongst them & as they attempt to find out who it is, a violent story unfolds!

Pulp fiction is an interesting film without a doubt. There are no over the top effects, maybe 3 settings and to be honest not a lot happens.

So, "Reservoir Dogs". what is there to say?

A bit of a cliché for those of us in college in the 1990's, but Reservoir Dogs was the movie that got me wondering what made the difference between movies I liked and movies I loved. I loved this movie.

I went into this movie with some expectations. Having liked all of the Tarantino films that I've seen I was hoping for another great movie.

This movie is possibly one of Quentin Tarantino's finest films, better than Kill Bill, Jackie Brown and the rest of his films, this film is what gained him national and possibly global recognition.The film is about jewel thieves who go on to rob diamonds from a bank, but predictably the cops show up, but what goes on next is unknown, as cleverly Quentin doesn't show what happens but through dialogue we learn what happens, Mr Blonde taking civilians hostage, Mr Orange getting injured, Mr Blue getting killed and generally the rest getting split up.

Reservoir Dogs, simply put, is one of the best crime films ever made. A uniquely stylized viewpoint, combined with a colorful cast of specific and desperate characters allows this movie to live on forever in the crime genre.
