Another Reservoir Dogs
Gangsters, violence, murder and corruption !!!!! If these are
some of
the things that you're into, then this is your kind of movie. Be
ready to
watch it more than once to be sure to get all the movie has to
offer because it
jumps from subject to subject and can be a little confusing.
The movie on the whole was really great. It was filled with some
pretty
gory scenes and extreme violent content, Tarantinos' trademark.
The way he
portrays the real life aspects of crime and violence are
unbelievable. I
wonder if he experienced some of these things himself and that's
why he has a
realistic view of them. Then again, I can't really gauge how
realistic any
of these themes are because after watching this kind of movie it
makes me feel
like I lead a really sheltered lifestyle.
Why does all the violence in Tarantinos' movies become so
attractive
to us normal people? I think it's because most of his material is
underworld
stuff. He deals with things we can barely relate to. Topics that
are so far
fetched to a "normal" person that they kind of hypnotize us into
watching.
Things happen in his movies that are so bizarre, we can't begin
to imagine

them happening to us in real life.
The weird part is, many of these things DO happen every day. We
all
know there really are gangsters, mobsters and really low-life
people that
involve themselves in what we think of as underworld crime. Drug
deals
on a level so great amounts we can't begin to comprehend.
Murders, for
whatever reason. Even the thought of hiring someone to kill
someone else
gives us a goose bump or three. In his movies it's almost like
borrowing a
cup of sugar from your next door neighbor.
Chopping off someone's ear would repulse me and probably make me
want to spew my lunch.
Tarantinos' characters chop off ears then talk into them as if
they were
using ma bell. His characters attitudes are totally ruthless.
They could give a shit if
you were the cousin of the president or a nanny. They have a job
to do and
they do it. No holes barred, no questions asked, no thought given
to actions
or consequences. They are almost like robots, zombies of the
underworld
that have no emotions or respect for the value of life. You would
think
these characters are drugged or brainwashed, but they're not. It
amazes me that

people do this kind of shit as if it were just another day. It's
as second
nature to them as brushing our teeth every morning is to us.
Belonging. Everyone likes to feel like they fit in. There is a
certain
comfort level in belonging to something, anything. Even if it is
to a gang
of criminal types. I think that's another reason we all relate or
get captured
by viewing these kinds of movies. I can only compare it to a
fraternity;
fraternity brothers all belong to an organized group. They have
similar interests,
goals and acquaintances. All Tarantinos' characters have these
things in common.
Although they aren't exactly what we would consider acceptable,
they all
still feel this common bond. It's a sick kind of thing though.
When you think of
all the things life has to offer, why would you want to involve
yourself in
all this complicated criminal shit? They jeopardize their own
existence because
even though they are considered members of the organization, they
would
snuff each other out in the blink of an eye if the right person
told them to
do it
!!!! I have to admit I was totally awed by his movie. I couldn't
wait for the

next scene to start. As a movie maker, his ideas and the way he
presents
them are phenomenal. He definitely captures his viewers. You
don't even
want to blink for fear of missing something. I would like to see
him do a
movie about topics that aren't so bizarre just to see if the
movies would be
as good.
