At first glance, the most impressive aspect of Reservoir Dogs is the outstanding cast gathered together by Tarantino (himself excluded). For a first time director, the presence of these names certainly appears to herald the arrival of a new talent. Beyond this promising start, the cast give uniformly excellent performances (far better than you might expect). Madsen is chilling as the unpredictable and sadistic Mr. Blonde, a centrepiece role he makes his own, while Keitel and Buscemi are great as experienced crooks undermined by gnawing fear and uncertainty. In addition to this trio, Tierney is extremely convincing as the criminal mastermind behind the robbery while Roth does as well as anyone could when they spend most of the movie lying in a pool of their own blood! All in all, the dynamics of the gang come across authentically.
