Reservoir Dogs, a review by DJ Doena

Today it get's a bit bloody.

Reservoir Dogs



Harvey Keitel    ...    Mr. White / Larry Dimmick
Tim Roth   ...    Mr. Orange / Freddy Newandyke
Michael Madsen   ...    Mr. Blonde / Vic Vega
Chris Penn   ...    Nice Guy Eddie Cabot
Steve Buscemi   ...    Mr. Pink
Lawrence Tierney   ...    Joe Cabot
Randy Brooks   ...    Holdaway
Kirk Baltz   ...    Marvin Nash
Edward Bunker   ...    Mr. Blue
Quentin Tarantino   ...    Mr. Brown

2 men return from a robbery that went bad, one of them badly wounded. In the course of time others also come back and they try to figure out what went wrong and why - that means, as long as they aren't busy with threats of killing one another.

My opinion:
Tarantino movies are never shown in the order of the events that have taken place, this one's no different. This one starts at the beginning of the second quarter, jumps to the third quarter and then fills the gaps of the first, second and fourth quarter. Of course one has to like Tarantino's way of spilling blood or else one wouldn't like this movie.

Just finished watching this one. It is another one I recently got from the library. I enjoyed every minute of it... definitely worth the time put in to watch it.Though I didn't find it nearly as scary as people has told me it was. Sure there was a couple decent jump scenes... but that is about it. I am looking forward to adding this one to my collection before too long.

Smallville Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

1. ODYSSEY


My Thoughts:
The episodes with other superheroes has always been some of my favorite epiodes. And this one is no different. I enjoyed every minute of it. Not only do we get to see the Green Arrow, Black Canary and Aquaman again... but also The Martian Manhunter comes back as well.

My Rating:

2. PLASTIQUE


My Thoughts:
Another episode I really enjoyed! This is my second time seeing the episode (counting the orginal airing) and I was glued to my set watching it!

My Rating:

3. TOXIC
OLIVER QUEEN, poisoned and near death, recalls his first use of a bow and arrow. Is there someone whose lightning-like data-processing powers can find an antidote to the toxin? And will Tess also be a victim of the poison.

My Thoughts:
Another good episode. Though not quite as good as the previous two. I liked how they worked in somewhat of an origin story for the Green Arrow. showing how he got good with the bow and arrow.

My Rating:

4. INSTINCT
She's searching for a man who is her equal, Maxima, whose kiss is fatal to mortal men, arrives on Earth, looking for her KRYPTONIAN soul ,ate. She locks eyes on Jimmy, will they lock lips?

My Thoughts:
I enjoyed this one quite a bit as well. It seems, going by this first disc, that I may be able to say that season 8 is going to be a better season then 7.

My Rating:
