Reservoir Dogs (1992)

This is about as good as films get; it’s near perfect. The plot is ‘oh so simple (and yet unbelievably deep) - six criminals who don’t know each other (and are referred to by colors) plan a jewelry heist that goes wrong. Those that survive suspect one is a rat. The acting is top-notch (almost creepy-like), editing is tight, and it all just works. It’s amazing what Tarantino was able to pull off with what he had. Overall, folks - see it if you haven’t, and see it again if it’s been a while.
