Reserviour Dogs - What a pile of cack
 

Finally saw this film after years of hype, and what a piece of junk.

Can't believe its in the IMDB all-time top films.

Pulp Fiction was good, but this was no where near the mark.

It's an old film. So what! I still like it.

:iamwithst . .Thats because you Sir are a bit of a pleb and a philistine!:thumb:

I remember the first time it was released (Thurrock lakeside <shudder>). Watched it thought it was average at best.

Then I believe it was released again........Students got hold of it this time and said how 'crazy' it was...etc..etc. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz cult classic and all that toss.

The rest my friend is history.

It's nothing special...

I thought it was $hit too.

It's the conversations they're having round the breakfast table that always cracked me up, especially the "theory" on Madonna's Like A Virgin!!

It is very overrated IMHO

Great film IMO.

Watched the first ever UK showing of the film, loved it then, and still do now. I agree Pulp Fiction is better, but that doesn't make Reservoir Dogs a bad film.

Agree:thumb:

Fantastic film!

One of those films that's better the second time around, once you realise it's the dialogue you have to focus on, not endless car chases etc.

I have the special edition - 2 disc DVD - some excellent extra's on there!

What a soundtrack too! used to have "little green Bag" as my ringtone.....

It was unique to me for ages, as no one knew what it was called, or who it was by - then someone poached it off my phone via Bluetooth

What was the message behind this film? Didn't seem to go anywhere. it had a few funny lines in it but that convo at the start was aweful - no flow and over exaggerated. Hourses for courses really.

but its got no plot, no cgi, no pace, no big over the top action car chases where everything explodes like hirosima

of course not many are going to like it

I know why you didnt enjoy it, you probably watched a cheapo remake.

The film you really want is Reservoir Dogs not Reserviour Dogs ;) :D

I would say it's a marmite film; you either love it or hate it.

lol @ Dave

There are some excellent performances, it's superbly shot. I agree that it may be a little slow paced or lacking in action for some, but it certainly isn't cack.

I think its dire and Im a tarantino fan, pulp is one of my favourite films of *all* time but RD is pants.

its an independent film rather than Hollywood, the two should never be mixed. If youre into hollywood youre less likely to enjoy the independents.

I think all of Tarantino's & his mate, Rodriguez(though not his mainstream ones hes sold too) makes brilliantly edited films & cracking soundtracks

I'd say that it's a b0ll0cks film, in that it's b0ll0cks. :)

Trainspotting was utter cr@p too, but that's a different thread entirely. ;)

Good film with some superb performances and good soundtrack. Plot a bit thin but hey, you can't have everything.:D

Now you are talking absolute sh*te. Go and wash your mouth out immediately.

No, no, no, no NOooooooo.
One of my favourite films.

Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family, Choose a f*cking big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers.

Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends.

Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of f*cking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing sprit-crushing game shows, stuffing f*cking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, f*cked-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life.

I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who need reasons when you've got heroin?

From the original screenplay.;)

:thumb: well said that man

didn't think rd was that bad but i thought kill bill 1 was v good watch can't beat dusk till dawn :notworthy

Dusk til dawn, seen that a few times, great film :thumb:

Indeed! Especially the foray into the Titty Twister and that Pandemonium lass.:thumb:

But it was sh*t first time round, why would I want to repeat the experience and waste another 100 minutes of my life?
