Jill Rosenblum Post #8 Reservoir Dogs (1992)

Reservoir Dogs (1992) directed by Quentin Tarantino is an awesome movie filled with action, adventure and excitement. A group of men plan to set out of a robbery however, the robbery goes terribly wrong and the group of guys start to suspect that someone in the group is the police informant. This film starts off with one of the men in the backseat of a car thinking that he is going to die because he got shot in the stomach during the robbery. Then the movie goes into the scene of where the guy that got shot in the stomach is thinking he is going to do and then the other guy says how they can't go to the hospital so they won't get arrested. This movie had a lot of gun fights and cop chases and there is just non stop action.

This movie uses a lot of different camera angles. The one scene I really noticed was in the scene where the one younger man of the group who got shot in the stomach is laying there with the older man who is holding him and there are a lot of close up angles and medium close up shots to try to capture the emotion of each person because getting shot and going through what they just did is scary and should make a person feel uneasy and scared.

I would recommend this movie to anyone, I think it has a lot of action packed fun and it is funny as well. I think that people who enjoy comedy and action would love this movie. There is constant action and never a dull moment throughout this entire movie.
