Considering Mr. Orange bled like 3 gallons of blood, was shot twice, and still didn't die, I'm about 90% positive he survived that gunshot to the head and to this day he's still squirming in pain and whining.
Yeah, because the gun was aimed at the side of Orange's mouth. The bullet would have knocked most of his front teeth out, went through his jaw, and into Mr White's leg.
If they all acted as Mr. PINK did, they all would have lived and gotten away with the heist. He was far more professional and level headed when it came to what really needed to be done.
@@sanshray2861 I know he gets arrested but that's because hes is held up in the warehouse for so long with all the bullshit going on with the other guys all around him. But if all the guys acted like he did instead of losing their cool over every new piece of information, they could have gotten out of it.
You are correct. He bitched so much about having to be "pink", it takes away from the fact that he was following things the best of the group. He knew that "Its never fucking Thai stick!" I wish there was no audio confirmation of his capture. He deserved the Thai stick.
Mr. Pink was truly the professional here. *Mr. White:* Fucked up by getting close to Mr. Orange, even telling him his first name and where he's from. *Mr. Blonde:* A complete psychopath who massacres a bunch of people in the diamond store, kidnaps a cop, and tortures him WHILE the city is hot on their tail. *Mr. Brown and Mr. Blue:* As you said, All victims to one bad day. *Mr. Pink:* Not only did he shoot his way out, he took the diamonds and his them, even if it meant if he were to get caught, the cops will have nothing. Also he never mentions where he's from, what's his name. Lastly, during the Mexican standoff he his under the walkway and asked no questions, didn't help White nor Orange, he simply walked out. He was truly the professional, but since he gets arrested, Mr. Pink ain't never gonna see the light of day again.
Ghastly_Grinner Idk how trials work, but the sole survivor who was involved in a robbery that left multiple civilians and lawman dead, he might face the death penalty.
@@tommycipriani2254 So did OJ simpson he murdered two people and walked free there is always a chance that the Defence team might be really good or the Prosecution could just biff the case
He gets to paint the narrative as the only survivor. no way he gets life in prison or the death penalty with any kind of a decent lawyer. everyone being dead plays to his advantage.
I always thought it was pretty clear why Orange told White he was cop. I always just assumed that after White defended him so vehemently and even got shot protecting him when he could’ve just walked away he was so consumed with guilt that he owed White the truth. Also, White says “looks like we’re gonna have to do a little time kid” and Orange knew that only White would have to do time so that probably factored in too
Exactly. This has become a very unnecessary trend on TH-cam where people explain movies that require no explanation. This video was pretty well made imo but it's not like there was any new mind-blowing discoveries made here.
Demonstrates a lack of character on Oranges part. How could he have any respect or admiration for White? He had just witnessed White callously gun down two uniformed cops after the robbery turned into a bullet festival.
I believe after laying in a pool of his own blood for hours with a gun shot, then getting shot again by Joe during the Mexican standoff, Orange knew he was taking his last breaths and was surely going to die. I think that’s why he finally came clean.
My guess was Pink escaped and worked at the 50s restaurant in Pulp Fiction as a waiter. Given the irony he earlier in the movie he didn’t believe in tipping and monologue that follows.
The Coen Brothers have also used Steve Buscemi in several movies. Do you think he transformed from a hotel clerk to a dumbass hitman? Or could it just be that certain directors enjoy working with certain actors...
@ You beat me to it. If you listen carefully, YOU CAN hear what's going on. And it is a confrontation between Pink and the police.... remember folks it was eluded earlier police were around.
Watched Reservoir Dogs yesterday. Absolute great movie. The dialogue, the music, and detail are given to Mr Orange's backstory as a cop I love. Very unique film. Watching all Tarintino movies going into Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
@@Profile.4 resevoir dogs is a remake of an 80's japanese gangster movie.. And inglorious bastards did a fine job of retelling the dirty dozen. Get off your high horse, ebert.
Despite not witnessing the actual robbery, only seeing a couple of cops on screen, despite only hearing the police helicopter; Quentin Tarantino did a damn great job making it look convincing that whole LAPD were going on a citywide manhunt looking for the men who's diamond heist became a bloodbath. Just by what the characters say about the robbery, and by listening to the sirens & helicopter, you can only imagine how horrible it went and how crazy Mr. Blonde was murdering people. One of My favorite Quentin Tarantino of all time, alongside Pulp Fiction and The Hateful Eight.
No he was definitely arrested, listed to the scene with the volume way up, after the shooting you hear a car take off (pink in either mr. blonde or Eddie's or Joe's car) and it crashes soon after then you hear the cops yell at him to get on the ground, he is definitely arrested and probably talked his way into a better sentencing.
The series of gunshots at the end makes sense. But I like to think of it this way: Pink got into a shootout with the cops and got away. He never was able to recover the diamonds though, and had to lay low as a waiter at Jack Rabbit Slims. White didn’t shoot orange, survived the shootout with the cops, ended up either serving his time or escaping from prison and became The Wolf. Orange, hit with such guilt, quit the force and became a petty robber as Pumpkin with his girl Hunny Bunny. Jules and Vincent were later sent to recover the briefcase which had the diamonds. That’s why in the coffee shop, when Pumpkin tells Jules to open the briefcase he says "Is that what I think it is?” amazed that the diamonds were still floating around.
Awesome head cannon bro. Heres mine This takes place in the same universe as Pulp Fiction. The diamonds are whats in the briefcase. After the movie Mr. Pink transfers the diamonds into a briefcase and sells it to Brett, who was going to use it to pay off a debt to Marselles Wallace, leading to the apartment scene in PF. Side note: yes it is implied that Mr Pink gets arrested/killed offscreen at the end. But who knows. Maybe the briefcase was stolen after the police confenscated it, or maybe Pink survived after all and really did become the waiter at Jackrabbit Slims
I love the idea that the Buddy Holly waiter in Pulp Fiction is Mr. Pink in witness protection. It's poetic given his opening speech, Buddy clearly doesn't give a shit if Vince and Mia tip him. He hates his life because he got caught, had to leave "the life" behind, and go back to minimum wage work.
Damn. It makes sense when you think of it that way. Also possible that he sold the diamonds and got filthy rich off of them, and the waiter job is just a cover, so je REALLY doesn't give a shit if they tip him or not.
I think the beginning diner scene gives hints as to the ending as well as characteristics for everyone. Orange telling Cabot that Pink didn't throw in his dollar should tell that Orange was the insider that tipped off the cops.
@@elenarodriguez7809 I don't think Pink was greedy, more of a realist and he gave a very good justified account as to why he doesn't like tipping. BTW he didn't get away he got caught as well or possibly shot, the sirens came on just as he was running away. You can hear him surrender in the end, it's faint but you do hear him.
It also shows Mr. White has a relationship with Joe that gives him the balls to directly disobey him, refusing to give back his address book(Mexican standoff foreshadowing) And Vick's reaction shows his loyalty towards Joe, half-jokingly offering to shoot White(White vs Blonde tension/Nice Guy Eddie's speech foreshadowing) And of course, Orange being fake af the whole time being convinced by Pink's tipping speech, AND ratting him out when Joe asks who didn't throw in
Boy, if you consider most of the events happened in the course of one afternoon you start to realize how any day can end up being the worst day of your life. Great film. Mr Orange and Mr White put on an acting TOUR De FORCE.
According to Tarrantino there is a word in Japanese which perfectly sums up why mr orange told him that he was a cop and that Japanese audiences understood immediately. The closest word we have to this Japanese word is honour, but honour doesn't really cut it
I can understand, even if he was a criminal he put his life on the line for the cop and he just met him that day, it made sense the least he could do is be honest with him in death
I think you missed the reason Mr. Orange decides to tell Mr. White he was a cop at the end. I agree that Mr. Orange came to respect Mr. White throughout their ordeal together, and did not want to lie to him anymore on that account. But importantly, as a result of coming the respect Mr. White so much, Mr. Orange is subjected to extreme guilt. He confessed because the guilt of having bonded so deeply with Mr. White while knowing he was betraying him all along tore Mr. Orange apart.
For me it has always been clear that Mr. White shoots Mr. Orange - because of the first single shot heard, with no movement from Mr. White, followed by multiple gunshots that (presumably) jolt Mr.White out of frame - as stated in this video. The reason some people question this I think is because there is no flash reflected on Mr. White’s face when he shoots Mr. Orange, and people intuitively expect that. Tarantino’s choice to show no gun flash was an artistic one, just as was Mr. White being simply jolted out of frame with no blood - Tarantino probably wanted to create ambiguity before credits in an otherwise explicit film.
Mr. Pink escaped and fled to Minnesota where he was involved in a kidnapping gone wrong and ends up being killed by his accomplice and his body put in a wood chipper.
The nature of White and Orange's relationship is left open to interpretation. There's several little bits here and there that could suggest various things from father/son to even a homoerotic subtext. None more so than at the end when Mr. White is cradling Mr. Orange's head and mumbles "Sorry kid. Looks like we'll have to do it some other time." What they were going to do is left unexplained. Maybe go fishing. Maybe run away together and explore their man love. Joking aside, I'd say their relationship is actually almost a classical one of an older man mentoring a younger, but with a greater level of comradeship and intimacy than just an ordinary workplace kind of relationship. Kind of classical greek even.
Tarantino himself said it was meant to be a father/son relationship. Idk who came up with the homoerotic part but that was pretty clearly a stretch in my eyes
I've always thought you can hear Mr Pink being shot by the cops after he left the warehouse. You hear gunshots, and then moments later cops enter the warehouse, so it's pretty clear to me that Mr Pink didn't survive either.
I think one of two things happened at the end b/t White & Orange. As mentioned, Orange had been bleeding from a wound for what seemed like several hours. He was so close to death (and he knew it) and wanted to get it off his conscience that he had lied to a guy whom he'd grown to respect. Who'd basically become a mentor to him even though his job was to set him up. Or.....I think b/c Orange had lost so much blood he was confused and light headed and accidentally told White he was a cop. White might be making those grunts and wails b/c he knows Orange has lost so much blood so he can't tell if Orange is being truthful by saying he's a cop or he's so out of it, he is just babbling & doesn't know what he's saying. White is so frustrated b/c he's about to go to jail and may have just killed one of his oldest friends & his friend's son by defending someone who may or may not be a cop. It's tearing him apart.
you missed how mr orange us the one to snitch on mr pink in the diner scene and how this hints to the audience that he is the snitch, as he is very insistent about tattling on mr pink
For me it's a very - and I do emphasize *very* - close call between this and Pulp Fiction. I'd have to give the slight edge to Pulp Fiction but ultimately both films are pretty much at the top of my list of all time favorites.
@@olaoluwaafolayan6554 I can totally see why, Pulp Fiction is an amazing movie. RD feels like it has more of a sense of urgency to it, maybe that is the reason why I like it a little bit more than Pulp Fiction.
The warehouse scenes in this move remind me of the investigations made by Sam L. Jackson in The Hateful Eight. Both with ten right amount of interrogation, betrayal, dishonesty, suspense, suspicion, and violence. Both great movies, Quinten really is the greatest.
It does sound like Mr. Pink got in some sort of shootout in the parking lot, but seeing as how pulp fiction has the actor as a waiter id say he made it out and now lives off of tips instead of diamond stealing. Also imagine he found out he served food to Mr blonde's Brother.
I’ve probably watched this film 20+ times in my life so far and only last night when watching was the first time I noticed the gunshots after Mr Pink leaves
Mr White was an idiot who let sentiment blind him to the obvious. Like there's no career criminal who would kill another criminal to save a cop. Anyone in crime long enough will have at least enough of a baseline disdain to outright hatred of police to immediately look at a supposed fellow criminal as a traitor at best once they did take the side of the police. White let his mentor friendship with Orange, and hate for Blonde, along with his inability to admit when he's wrong, get his head so twisted with emotion, that he chose to betray his lifelong friends and colleagues, rather then consider that they may be right to his wrong
It was as unique as Kubrick's the Killing - which told of a robbery gone wrong where they all get shot or caught - and to understand what went wrong the films goes back and forth to showing the raid from the view point of each of the robbers. So yeah RD is not a bad film but you cannot argue it was unique.
Here's a theory... Mr.Pink miraculously escapes, delivers the case to MarcellasWallace, who in turn , having to send Vincent Vega, and Jules to retrieve that very same case from the doomed Youths in the apartment in Pulp fiction. Notice the bright shine when the case is briefly opened by Vincent. I credit my younger brother who's theory this is. I think it's a semi-reasonable and plausible theory.🤗
@@Profile.4 it's not a soul. Tarantino himself ssid it wasn't a soul and that there isn't an actual answer to what was inside. Stop believing every internet theory you read on the internet.
I think you nailed it. Orange knew death was there and felt the need to make a confession. Never thought Pink got away, whether he died or not is unknowable. I dislike QT immensely but this film is gold and will become a classic.
In video game version of reservoir dogs mr blue killed by cops in a cinema saloon, mr white is killed by cops, mr pink enters to car and police shoots him. If you play professional he lives but if bad play he dies too
would be nice if they do a spin off movie with mr pink, but i can't imagine that it would have the same magic like reservoir dogs, older movies have their own spirit and charm, imagine if someone would make a movie today with similar cameras from that period
And with AI technology you can totally map young Buscemi's face onto another actor and mimic his voice, it could be done to look exactly like it was made at the same time as the original film with all of the characters in prequel, with crossovers into pulp fiction, or whatever
4:33... It appears that Joe shot Mr. Orange, Mr. White shot Joe, then Eddie shoots Mr. White while Mr. White also shoots Eddie. And I'm guessing Mr. Orange shot nobody
If I was Mr Pink, I would have crawled into the most in obvious hiding place of the warehouse and waited till the police investigation was over, bodies removed, and only then would I scurry away with the loot. Loot in one hand, hottie under the other arm, and I’m gone...
Video starts at 7:55, and ends at 9:30. Spoiler alert - it just says what we all knew - Orange confesses to White, White kills Orange, and cops gun him down.
7:47, you can clearly see recoil in Mr. Whites arm after firing into Mr. Oranges face. That's why theres delay between the first shot and the gunfire after he shoots Orange.
I have a question I couldn't find an answer to: When Mr. brown, mr. orange and mr. white are escaping with the car and mr. brown crashes the car saying he is blind because of the blood on his face: They all get off the car and mr. white waits around the corner waiting for the police patrol and then eventually shoots them when they (the police) arrive. Does Mr. orange kills Mr. brown at that moment ? using the sound of Mr.white's shooting the police to cover his own shot to MR. brown?
Don’t wanna sound like a hater but what exactly about the end of this movie was unclear? They all shot each other in a Mexican standoff and Mr. Orange admits to Mr. White that he is a police officer and intern Mr. White shoots and kills Mr. Orange and then is killed by the police. Mr. Pink is caught outside by the cops before he could effectively escape. Nothing too hard to understand about the ending. Of course this is just one guy’s humble opinion. No need to attack me.
Good vid and I went to see the movie three times because I loved it at the time,but with the years that have passed i’ve concluded that White’s defence of Orange was a bit of a stretch as he didn’t know him at all and a hardened crook should have been if not onto him,at least far more cautious as the shooting of Blonde over the cop was a dead giveaway.
@@ninaa4192 I'll defer to him, of course. Especially since he was not shy to point out the homosexual undertones in "Top Gun." I was partly speaking tongue-in-cheek anyway. Kind of a bromance though, wouldn't you say?
I love it too but several things don't make sense. Why would these seasoned career criminals commit a heist while not wearing masks or even gloves. In full view of cameras and witnesses. Why would Joe show up to the warehouse when he knew orange was a rat and therefore the cops would certainly know about the meeting place?
Although it does appear that Mr. White killed Mr. Orange with a whooping 99% chance due to the first gunshot, remember that shooting someone in the face or head who is in your laps will definitely get your own face covered by at least a little blood if not a full red face I mean it's Quentin Tarantino you know how much he loves to spray his characters in a bloodbath even if they shoot each other from a few feet That's very logical if you take into consideration Tarantino's style of film making
Pink didn't get away. He was arrested outside. You can hear the cops screaming at him to surrender (6:03), and you can even make out Pink saying "don't shoot" (6:13). White put one j. Orange's head, then the cops shot White.

I will only watch the 1.33:1 full-screen original DVD release of Reservoir Dogs, because it has the most image. Dogs was shot in 1.85:1 format, but then QT cropped it down for widescreen 2.35:1, losing LOTS of image on the top and bottom, causing some really horribly cropped scenes where people's heads get cut off. The original DVD release full screen version is the only full screen release made from the original 1.85:1 negative, so it has FAR more screen image than any other version of the film ever released. There is only a slight bit of image lost on the sides. Netflix had an exclusive streaming version of the 1.85:1 version of Reservoir Dogs for a short while about 5 years ago - it was gorgeously framed, then it disappeared and hasn't returned since. It has never been released anywhere else.
Saw it in theather in the 90's disn't know i was witnesssing the birth of an awesome director. In the original version, during the scene were Mr. Pink and Mr. Black goes in the back bathroom to discuss the fate of Mr. Orange the sound was horrible you could barely understand anything. It was corrected afterward. I don't witch version I have on the DVD I'll have to check this out. Good day.
“Back to the left” was the wrong quote to use to inspire people to analyse ballistics. Since it’s basically an example of BS ballistics. Just because his head went “back and to the left” that doesn’t mean the shot came from the front and to the right. In fact it tells you very little about the position of the shooter. The entry wounds are the important evidence. His head went back for two reasons. 1. The jet effect - when the bullet leaves the head it pulls blood and brain matter out with it at high speed and it spurts out. Newton’s third law. When animals suffer severe brain trauma or beheading, it’s known that all their muscles tense and tighten up at once. Humans have stronger and more muscles in their back than in their front. So if Kennedy was shot from behind (which is what the evidence says) the jet effect coupled with the muscles tensing up explains his movements. Add that to the entry wounds in the back of his head and neck on a trajectory consistent with the 6th floor of the book depository.
I honestly kind of wish Mr. Pink escaped successfully since I liked him. First degree murder of a cop, armed robbery, carjacking etc. he will no doubt get the death penalty.
Don't know if this is true or not, but I read somewhere that Breaking Bad paid homage to this movie, hence "Mr. White" and "Mr. Pinkman". It would be interesting to know if there's any truth to this.
Bubba Mike: You are correct, it does look like Mr. White shot twice, so you maybe right. However, there are two things that still do not make sense. One, when a bullet hits a person, the person hit is impacted and Mr. White’s action, after shooting, appears to be in reaction to being hit by a bullet, rather then shooting a second time. Second, it does not appear that the barrel of Mr. White’s pistol is pointing towards Nice Guy Eddy.
Bubba Mike: You are correct Mr. White does shoot twice. Also, I watched the shoot again a few times and it does appear that Nice Guy Eddy is reacting to a bullet coming from his left side as opposed to his right side. Also, it does not appear to be any smoke 💨 coming from under the stairs. So, I think you are correct in that Mr. White shot Nice Guy Eddy, but it still does not appear that he, Mr. White, got his barrel far enough over to hit Nice Guy Eddy and it appears that that second shot was more of an involuntary type shot, and finally I have a difficult time believing that Mr. White could have absorbed the bullet and turned and fired especially when one considers how the other two were simply knocked down, unless Mr. White was not hit in a direct manner as could be the case because he was not killed outright.
I just - tonight - watched Reservoir Dogs for the first time (!!) - this is because I'm a very recent convert to Tarantino via the magnificent Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. I came here to read the very interesting views presented about the ending, accepting of course that no one view is the 'correct' one, thanks to the artistic ambiguity of which Tarantino is a master. However, for what it's worth, I think - 1. White clearly shot Orange before being himself killed by cops. 2. Orange told White he was a cop himself as part of the confusion/delirium which often comes over people just about to die - had he been in control of his senses he'd never, given their strong bond have needlessly destroyed White like that. 3. Having said that, look at how Orange reacted to White's slaughter of the two cops in the car - his fellow cops. Not happy. Not happy at all. Therefore, ignore 2. above. Orange told White the truth in revenge for this slaughter, to show that he (a cop) had outwitted him and the others and had ruined the robbery. 4. The last scene chronologically is shown early - Pink running away with the loot, shooting chasing cops, stealing a car and thereby escaping. His words outside the building which we can just about hear at the end of the film were after the car he first tried to escape in crashed into a cop car, or was deliberately driven into by one, disabling both vehicles. He said 'Don't fire, I'm already shot' (or something very similar) simply to distract the cops for just enough time to enable him to run away at top speed, the disabling of the cars explains why the cops were running and not driving after him. But what do I know??
My favorite film by Tarantino! I loved the ending with one exception. 6:06, Mr. Orange would NEVER confess to Mr. White that he was actually a cop. At least not while in that warehouse.
Why not? He feels bad about White because he kept defending him and, even when he was hit by a bullet, White kept comforting him and telling him everything gonna be fine while he himself was bleeding... they clearly have bonded through the film. Seriously it's not so hard to understand why he had the need to tell White he was a cop
Asking to put the gun down doesn't mean they still won't make a move as he continues to sit there with the gun to the undercover cop's face. It just means they gave him one chance and if he didn't act, they'd have no choice but to shoot him. Regardless, I believe Mr. White did shoot Orange because as you said, he showed zero signs of pain after that first shot with the little pause.
I love this movie to death, but what I don't get, is how Mr. Orange who is on the brink of death, survived the 2nd bullet from joe to tell Mr. White that he is a cop when Joe and Nice Guy Eddie got done in one.
I prefer to think that Mr white didnt actually kill Mr Orange and that one cop in the moment of panic, ended up shotting mr white and then the resto of the cops started shotting as well
Considering Mr. Orange bled like 3 gallons of blood, was shot twice, and still didn't die, I'm about 90% positive he survived that gunshot to the head and to this day he's still squirming in pain and whining.
LOL
i think mr white survived too and after all this violence, the two made up and are living together in Europe and act like the heist never happened
He's probably been lying in a coma in the same hospital room as Black Mamba.
Yeah, because the gun was aimed at the side of Orange's mouth. The bullet would have knocked most of his front teeth out, went through his jaw, and into Mr White's leg.
he survived got a girlfriend and decided to rob dinners
Samuel Jackson read for Mr. Pink... and although I have love for Mr. Jackson, I can't see ANYONE but Steve Buscemi in this role.
It's a shame that Buscemi's talents were wasted in shitty Adam Sandler movies.
It was Mr Orange but Tarantino wanted Tim Roth instead

Watched Reservoir Dogs yesterday. Absolute great movie. The dialogue, the music, and detail are given to Mr Orange's backstory as a cop I love. Very unique film. Watching all Tarintino movies going into Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
What’s your favorite Tarantino film?
Bro, watch inglorious basterds, you're gonna love it, sure of it
@@kendarr seen it multiple times. Amazing film especially Christoph Waltz
@@kendarr too bad it's revisionist shit but from an entertainment standpoint it's okay.
@@Profile.4 resevoir dogs is a remake of an 80's japanese gangster movie.. And inglorious bastards did a fine job of retelling the dirty dozen. Get off your high horse, ebert.
Despite not witnessing the actual robbery, only seeing a couple of cops on screen, despite only hearing the police helicopter; Quentin Tarantino did a damn great job making it look convincing that whole LAPD were going on a citywide manhunt looking for the men who's diamond heist became a bloodbath.
Just by what the characters say about the robbery, and by listening to the sirens & helicopter, you can only imagine how horrible it went and how crazy Mr. Blonde was murdering people.
One of My favorite Quentin Tarantino of all time, alongside Pulp Fiction and The Hateful Eight.
Congrats, you just "got" theater!
urblammo Explain?
Stellvia Heonheim It's called "homage". Anyways so what, his next film was as original as it gets, I'll let it pass.
And that was ripped off from previous films that is what art does people quit looking for shit to complain about the movie is excellent.
Can't afford a heist scene so just make them describe it and leave the imagery up to the mind. Pretty cool
You hear the cops yell at pink, then a fusillade of shots. I always assumed pink was killed.
Most likely he lived got 10 or 20 years shooting at coos i ses him getting 29 or 30 years basically life ur welcome
After the shots he screams, "Don't shoot! I've been shot goddamnit!"
a fusillade huh, nice
Yeah me too
No he was definitely arrested, listed to the scene with the volume way up, after the shooting you hear a car take off (pink in either mr. blonde or Eddie's or Joe's car) and it crashes soon after then you hear the cops yell at him to get on the ground, he is definitely arrested and probably talked his way into a better sentencing.
The series of gunshots at the end makes sense. But I like to think of it this way: Pink got into a shootout with the cops and got away. He never was able to recover the diamonds though, and had to lay low as a waiter at Jack Rabbit Slims. White didn’t shoot orange, survived the shootout with the cops, ended up either serving his time or escaping from prison and became The Wolf. Orange, hit with such guilt, quit the force and became a petty robber as Pumpkin with his girl Hunny Bunny. Jules and Vincent were later sent to recover the briefcase which had the diamonds. That’s why in the coffee shop, when Pumpkin tells Jules to open the briefcase he says "Is that what I think it is?” amazed that the diamonds were still floating around.
Damnnnn
My mind is blown!!!!!
Nice
This is now my head canon.
Bro I love this too much.
Awesome head cannon bro. Heres mine
This takes place in the same universe as Pulp Fiction. The diamonds are whats in the briefcase. After the movie Mr. Pink transfers the diamonds into a briefcase and sells it to Brett, who was going to use it to pay off a debt to Marselles Wallace, leading to the apartment scene in PF.
Side note: yes it is implied that Mr Pink gets arrested/killed offscreen at the end. But who knows. Maybe the briefcase was stolen after the police confenscated it, or maybe Pink survived after all and really did become the waiter at Jackrabbit Slims
This is just a recap.. I thought I missed something in the ending, but he literally does nothing but recap exactly what we've all seen
exactly what I said. Told everybody what they already saw and knew and wasted his time making this and our time watching it
There's really only 2 things that need explaining: what happened to Pink and why did Orange confess
I love the idea that the Buddy Holly waiter in Pulp Fiction is Mr. Pink in witness protection. It's poetic given his opening speech, Buddy clearly doesn't give a shit if Vince and Mia tip him. He hates his life because he got caught, had to leave "the life" behind, and go back to minimum wage work.
Damn. It makes sense when you think of it that way. Also possible that he sold the diamonds and got filthy rich off of them, and the waiter job is just a cover, so je REALLY doesn't give a shit if they tip him or not.
And White turned out to be the Wolfe
I think the beginning diner scene gives hints as to the ending as well as characteristics for everyone. Orange telling Cabot that Pink didn't throw in his dollar should tell that Orange was the insider that tipped off the cops.
And the fact that Mr. Pink doesn't like to tip shows his cheap and greedy hence his ending getting away with the money.
@@elenarodriguez7809 I don't think Pink was greedy, more of a realist and he gave a very good justified account as to why he doesn't like tipping.
BTW he didn't get away he got caught as well or possibly shot, the sirens came on just as he was running away. You can hear him surrender in the end, it's faint but you do hear him.
It also shows Mr. White has a relationship with Joe that gives him the balls to directly disobey him, refusing to give back his address book(Mexican standoff foreshadowing)
And Vick's reaction shows his loyalty towards Joe, half-jokingly offering to shoot White(White vs Blonde tension/Nice Guy Eddie's speech foreshadowing)
And of course, Orange being fake af the whole time being convinced by Pink's tipping speech, AND ratting him out when Joe asks who didn't throw in
Boy, if you consider most of the events happened in the course of one afternoon you start to realize how any day can end up being the worst day of your life. Great film. Mr Orange and Mr White put on an acting TOUR De FORCE.
According to Tarrantino there is a word in Japanese which perfectly sums up why mr orange told him that he was a cop and that Japanese audiences understood immediately. The closest word we have to this Japanese word is honour, but honour doesn't really cut it
Bushido?
@@Swallabat Buru Shitto
Orange could have saved white's life by confessing about 30 seconds earlier
I can understand, even if he was a criminal he put his life on the line for the cop and he just met him that day, it made sense the least he could do is be honest with him in death
After watching this (one of my favorite films of all time), I could never listen to "Stuck in the Middle with You" without my ears hurting again = )
It was crazy how Mr Pink busted a Rambo against the cops and got away with the diamonds in the deleted scenes, fn awesome!
I think you missed the reason Mr. Orange decides to tell Mr. White he was a cop at the end. I agree that Mr. Orange came to respect Mr. White throughout their ordeal together, and did not want to lie to him anymore on that account. But importantly, as a result of coming the respect Mr. White so much, Mr. Orange is subjected to extreme guilt. He confessed because the guilt of having bonded so deeply with Mr. White while knowing he was betraying him all along tore Mr. Orange apart.
For me it has always been clear that Mr. White shoots Mr. Orange - because of the first single shot heard, with no movement from Mr. White, followed by multiple gunshots that (presumably) jolt Mr.White out of frame - as stated in this video.
The reason some people question this I think is because there is no flash reflected on Mr. White’s face when he shoots Mr. Orange, and people intuitively expect that. Tarantino’s choice to show no gun flash was an artistic one, just as was Mr. White being simply jolted out of frame with no blood - Tarantino probably wanted to create ambiguity before credits in an otherwise explicit film.
Mr. Pink escaped and fled to Minnesota where he was involved in a kidnapping gone wrong and ends up being killed by his accomplice and his body put in a wood chipper.
Fargo
Ask those three poor souls up in Brainerd if a deals a deal. Go ahead ask em!
The nature of White and Orange's relationship is left open to interpretation. There's several little bits here and there that could suggest various things from father/son to even a homoerotic subtext. None more so than at the end when Mr. White is cradling Mr. Orange's head and mumbles "Sorry kid. Looks like we'll have to do it some other time."
What they were going to do is left unexplained. Maybe go fishing. Maybe run away together and explore their man love.
Joking aside, I'd say their relationship is actually almost a classical one of an older man mentoring a younger, but with a greater level of comradeship and intimacy than just an ordinary workplace kind of relationship. Kind of classical greek even.
Tarantino himself said it was meant to be a father/son relationship. Idk who came up with the homoerotic part but that was pretty clearly a stretch in my eyes
@@Kiranj33 some people just love taking any close relationship between two guys and saying it's 'gay'.
He said we're gonna have to do some time. That means the cops are here and we're going to prison
"Do some time" means go to prison. Not everything on Earth has a gay subtext ffs.
@@Kiranj33 Tarantino reads gay subtext into other people's work. What's good for the goose...
I've always thought you can hear Mr Pink being shot by the cops after he left the warehouse. You hear gunshots, and then moments later cops enter the warehouse, so it's pretty clear to me that Mr Pink didn't survive either.
I think Pink was shot and arrested
Yea u can hear gunshots and screaming in the back round
After the gunshots you can hear the cops yelling at mr pink and him yelling back “don’t shoot”
Maybe mr pink shot a couple cops and got away
I think that was the door
I like the idea that they’ve bonded and it’s mr orange dying confession
Tarantino got the idea of using colours as names from The Taking Of Pelham 123, the great original not the shitty remake.
Proof?
Who agrees that Reservoir Dogs is an awesome film? I think it’s one of Tarantino’s best films.
7:49 ''You shoot me in the dream you better wake up and apologize.''
I think one of two things happened at the end b/t White & Orange. As mentioned, Orange had been bleeding from a wound for what seemed like several hours. He was so close to death (and he knew it) and wanted to get it off his conscience that he had lied to a guy whom he'd grown to respect. Who'd basically become a mentor to him even though his job was to set him up.
Or.....I think b/c Orange had lost so much blood he was confused and light headed and accidentally told White he was a cop. White might be making those grunts and wails b/c he knows Orange has lost so much blood so he can't tell if Orange is being truthful by saying he's a cop or he's so out of it, he is just babbling & doesn't know what he's saying. White is so frustrated b/c he's about to go to jail and may have just killed one of his oldest friends & his friend's son by defending someone who may or may not be a cop. It's tearing him apart.
Nah..White knows Orange is telling the truth. The anguish is because he'd grown don't of the guy and he's just killed nice guy and Joe.
This is literally Among Us: the movie
orange sus
From being sus to colors
Sussy Baka
you missed how mr orange us the one to snitch on mr pink in the diner scene and how this hints to the audience that he is the snitch, as he is very insistent about tattling on mr pink
First movie I ever watched and 100% satisfied with the ending
No questions asked
I mean you think the fact that Orange shot an innocent right in front of Larry would have been a “not a cop” sign
Tarantinos best work imo.
forsure
Every Tarantino is the best Tarantino
For me it's a very - and I do emphasize *very* - close call between this and Pulp Fiction. I'd have to give the slight edge to Pulp Fiction but ultimately both films are pretty much at the top of my list of all time favorites.
I agree but its nit much a call for me as I only like this and Pulp Fiction.
@@olaoluwaafolayan6554 I can totally see why, Pulp Fiction is an amazing movie. RD feels like it has more of a sense of urgency to it, maybe that is the reason why I like it a little bit more than Pulp Fiction.
The warehouse scenes in this move remind me of the investigations made by Sam L. Jackson in The Hateful Eight. Both with ten right amount of interrogation, betrayal, dishonesty, suspense, suspicion, and violence. Both great movies, Quinten really is the greatest.
I enjoyed every second of this exploration. Nice job my brother.
It does sound like Mr. Pink got in some sort of shootout in the parking lot, but seeing as how pulp fiction has the actor as a waiter id say he made it out and now lives off of tips instead of diamond stealing. Also imagine he found out he served food to Mr blonde's Brother.
so glad i live in the neighborhood where this movie was filmed
I’ve probably watched this film 20+ times in my life so far and only last night when watching was the first time I noticed the gunshots after Mr Pink leaves
If I remember right it didn't sound like Mr.Pink made it to far and the cop said back up was just around the block waiting for Eddie to show up.
"...and ultimately... _tragedy."_
_happy music continues to play_
Mr White was an idiot who let sentiment blind him to the obvious. Like there's no career criminal who would kill another criminal to save a cop. Anyone in crime long enough will have at least enough of a baseline disdain to outright hatred of police to immediately look at a supposed fellow criminal as a traitor at best once they did take the side of the police. White let his mentor friendship with Orange, and hate for Blonde, along with his inability to admit when he's wrong, get his head so twisted with emotion, that he chose to betray his lifelong friends and colleagues, rather then consider that they may be right to his wrong
It was as unique as Kubrick's the Killing - which told of a robbery gone wrong where they all get shot or caught - and to understand what went wrong the films goes back and forth to showing the raid from the view point of each of the robbers.
So yeah RD is not a bad film but you cannot argue it was unique.
I think the style is unique.
I heard that Mr.White came back as Winston Wolfe and Mr.Brown came back as Jimmie Dimmick in Pulp Fiction
i cant see mr white because the cops shot him dead as we see, but mr brown maybe only because the way he "died" is pretty weak.
In the screenplay, Mr White shoots Mr Orange. Y’all should read it. It’s really interesting how much is missing/changed
Here's a theory...
Mr.Pink miraculously escapes, delivers the case to MarcellasWallace, who in turn , having to send Vincent Vega, and Jules to retrieve that very same case from the doomed Youths in the apartment in Pulp fiction.
Notice the bright shine when the case is briefly opened by Vincent.
I credit my younger brother who's theory this is. I think it's a semi-reasonable and plausible theory.🤗
Nah
The briefcase was supposed to be a soul
Not the same case either
@@Profile.4 it's not a soul. Tarantino himself ssid it wasn't a soul and that there isn't an actual answer to what was inside. Stop believing every internet theory you read on the internet.
@@PizzaRatJC it's a soul. I don't give a shit was QT said
I think you nailed it. Orange knew death was there and felt the need to make a confession. Never thought Pink got away, whether he died or not is unknowable. I dislike QT immensely but this film is gold and will become a classic.
I remember this movie over 20 years ago... classic!
I’m only 25 so I didn’t get to watch this until today. I remember my parents always watching this & I understand why
In video game version of reservoir dogs mr blue killed by cops in a cinema saloon, mr white is killed by cops, mr pink enters to car and police shoots him. If you play professional he lives but if bad play he dies too
I always took the ending to mean "cooler heads prevail", but the Mr. Pink version of the DVD says otherwise.
Unchained With The Captain hmm?
Great summary of a classic film. I agree with all you put forward!
would be nice if they do a spin off movie with mr pink, but i can't imagine that it would have the same magic like reservoir dogs, older movies have their own spirit and charm, imagine if someone would make a movie today with similar cameras from that period
And with AI technology you can totally map young Buscemi's face onto another actor and mimic his voice, it could be done to look exactly like it was made at the same time as the original film with all of the characters in prequel, with crossovers into pulp fiction, or whatever
4:33... It appears that Joe shot Mr. Orange, Mr. White shot Joe, then Eddie shoots Mr. White while Mr. White also shoots Eddie. And I'm guessing Mr. Orange shot nobody
Mr orange had no ammo in his gun after he killed Mr blonde
Chris Penn is fantastic in this film!!!
7:55 is what you’re looking for
If I was Mr Pink, I would have crawled into the most in obvious hiding place of the warehouse and waited till the police investigation was over, bodies removed, and only then would I scurry away with the loot. Loot in one hand, hottie under the other arm, and I’m gone...
It can truly be asked why Orange would respect White, who we all know is a bad guy.
Video starts at 7:55, and ends at 9:30. Spoiler alert - it just says what we all knew - Orange confesses to White, White kills Orange, and cops gun him down.
7:47, you can clearly see recoil in Mr. Whites arm after firing into Mr. Oranges face. That's why theres delay between the first shot and the gunfire after he shoots Orange.
This guy did exactly what he said he was gonna do. He explained the ending of a movie. That's it. If you don't like it, move on.
I have a question I couldn't find an answer to: When Mr. brown, mr. orange and mr. white are escaping with the car and mr. brown crashes the car saying he is blind because of the blood on his face: They all get off the car and mr. white waits around the corner waiting for the police patrol and then eventually shoots them when they (the police) arrive. Does Mr. orange kills Mr. brown at that moment ? using the sound of Mr.white's shooting the police to cover his own shot to MR. brown?
I like how when Mr. White is shooting at the police car his 9mm rounds are hitting with the kinetic force of a .50 caliber BMG. Lol
I really think Pink got away with the diamonds. He really deserved them.
Reservoir Dogs ends where Fargo begins.
Don’t wanna sound like a hater but what exactly about the end of this movie was unclear? They all shot each other in a Mexican standoff and Mr. Orange admits to
Mr. White that he is a police officer and intern Mr. White shoots and kills Mr. Orange and then is killed by the police. Mr. Pink is caught outside by the cops before he could effectively escape. Nothing too hard to understand about the ending. Of course this is just one guy’s humble opinion. No need to attack me.
Exactly right. I don’t get these people either
Truly one of the best crime films ever made.
mr orange did say cops were around the corner or a block away (i dont remember which) so that explains why mr pink got arrested so fast
Blonde is apparently brothers with Vincent from Pulp
Yep. Vincent and Vic Vega.
Nobody refers to it as pulp
@@dakotaplaysvhs8039 and yet you knew what i was saying..
Sufian Abuahmad yes of course, fucking orange juice
Good vid and I went to see the movie three times because I loved it at the time,but with the years that have passed i’ve concluded that White’s defence of Orange was a bit of a stretch as he didn’t know him at all and a hardened crook should have been if not onto him,at least far more cautious as the shooting of Blonde over the cop was a dead giveaway.
It makes more sense if you accept the homosexual overtones in that relationship.
@@KutWrite Tarantino explicitly said in an interview that White and Orange's relationship was paternal/mentor-and-student.
@@ninaa4192 I'll defer to him, of course. Especially since he was not shy to point out the homosexual undertones in "Top Gun."
I was partly speaking tongue-in-cheek anyway. Kind of a bromance though, wouldn't you say?
I love it too but several things don't make sense. Why would these seasoned career criminals commit a heist while not wearing masks or even gloves. In full view of cameras and witnesses. Why would Joe show up to the warehouse when he knew orange was a rat and therefore the cops would certainly know about the meeting place?
Although it does appear that Mr. White killed Mr. Orange with a whooping 99% chance due to the first gunshot, remember that shooting someone in the face or head who is in your laps will definitely get your own face covered by at least a little blood if not a full red face
I mean it's Quentin Tarantino you know how much he loves to spray his characters in a bloodbath even if they shoot each other from a few feet
That's very logical if you take into consideration Tarantino's style of film making
Pink didn't get away. He was arrested outside. You can hear the cops screaming at him to surrender (6:03), and you can even make out Pink saying "don't shoot" (6:13).
White put one j. Orange's head, then the cops shot White.
I will only watch the 1.33:1 full-screen original DVD release of Reservoir Dogs, because it has the most image. Dogs was shot in 1.85:1 format, but then QT cropped it down for widescreen 2.35:1, losing LOTS of image on the top and bottom, causing some really horribly cropped scenes where people's heads get cut off. The original DVD release full screen version is the only full screen release made from the original 1.85:1 negative, so it has FAR more screen image than any other version of the film ever released. There is only a slight bit of image lost on the sides.
Netflix had an exclusive streaming version of the 1.85:1 version of Reservoir Dogs for a short while about 5 years ago - it was gorgeously framed, then it disappeared and hasn't returned since. It has never been released anywhere else.
Saw it in theather in the 90's disn't know i was witnesssing the birth of an awesome director. In the original version, during the scene were Mr. Pink and Mr. Black goes in the back bathroom to discuss the fate of Mr. Orange the sound was horrible you could barely understand anything. It was corrected afterward. I don't witch version I have on the DVD I'll have to check this out. Good day.
“Back to the left” was the wrong quote to use to inspire people to analyse ballistics.
Since it’s basically an example of BS ballistics.
Just because his head went “back and to the left” that doesn’t mean the shot came from the front and to the right.
In fact it tells you very little about the position of the shooter.
The entry wounds are the important evidence.
His head went back for two reasons.
1. The jet effect - when the bullet leaves the head it pulls blood and brain matter out with it at high speed and it spurts out. Newton’s third law.
When animals suffer severe brain trauma or beheading, it’s known that all their muscles tense and tighten up at once.
Humans have stronger and more muscles in their back than in their front.
So if Kennedy was shot from behind (which is what the evidence says) the jet effect coupled with the muscles tensing up explains his movements.
Add that to the entry wounds in the back of his head and neck on a trajectory consistent with the 6th floor of the book depository.
Mr. Orange and Mr. White being so physically close to each other, I can't see how no blood is spilt on the latter's face after the first shot.
I honestly kind of wish Mr. Pink escaped successfully since I liked him. First degree murder of a cop, armed robbery, carjacking etc. he will no doubt get the death penalty.
I second this 😂 he’s the wisest of all the other MR’s
I think he will get life sentence he only shot one cop he didnt die and did a arm robbery never shot anyone and carjacking he wont get death
I’ve always thought Mr Pink was gunned down outside.
He was, there’s no survivors
Omg, I watched this plenty of times.. and just now discovered the background between mr pink and the cops?? Wtf, I never made that connection!
I just finished the film & I didn’t hear it the 1st time🤦🏾♂️
if i didn't see it, it didn't happen. was probably some guy on some other job
@@QueenFan12 You mean mister purple? 😂
Toby, Toby? Who the fuck is Toby?
04:40 So who shot Nice Eddie?
Is imagine making an explanation video and missing the entire point of the movie....
Don't know if this is true or not, but I read somewhere that Breaking Bad paid homage to this movie, hence "Mr. White" and "Mr. Pinkman". It would be interesting to know if there's any truth to this.
And it's my favorite movie of all time
I just learned that Pink was arrested and White killed Orange. 28 years later n this materpiece is still blowing my mind.
I'm pretty sure that as mr. Pink escapes you can hear all the cops pulling up and a gunfight with him
Realize Mr.White was faster by shooting 2 people,Joe & Nice Guy Eddie,and hitting them each with 1 shot in a vital organ.
TheXtro101 Mr. Pink shot Nice Guy Eddy?????? from under the stairs.
La Pensulo slow it down and you’ll see mr white shoot twice
Bubba Mike: You are correct, it does look like Mr. White shot twice, so you maybe right. However, there are two things that still do not make sense. One, when a bullet hits a person, the person hit is impacted and Mr. White’s action, after shooting, appears to be in reaction to being hit by a bullet, rather then shooting a second time. Second, it does not appear that the barrel of Mr. White’s pistol is pointing towards Nice Guy Eddy.
Bubba Mike: You are correct Mr. White does shoot twice. Also, I watched the shoot again a few times and it does appear that Nice Guy Eddy is reacting to a bullet coming from his left side as opposed to his right side. Also, it does not appear to be any smoke 💨 coming from under the stairs. So, I think you are correct in that Mr. White shot Nice Guy Eddy, but it still does not appear that he, Mr. White, got his barrel far enough over to hit Nice Guy Eddy and it appears that that second shot was more of an involuntary type shot, and finally I have a difficult time believing that Mr. White could have absorbed the bullet and turned and fired especially when one considers how the other two were simply knocked down, unless Mr. White was not hit in a direct manner as could be the case because he was not killed outright.
I just - tonight - watched Reservoir Dogs for the first time (!!) - this is because I'm a very recent convert to Tarantino via the magnificent Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
I came here to read the very interesting views presented about the ending, accepting of course that no one view is the 'correct' one, thanks to the artistic ambiguity of which Tarantino is a master.
However, for what it's worth, I think -
1. White clearly shot Orange before being himself killed by cops.
2. Orange told White he was a cop himself as part of the confusion/delirium which often comes over people just about to die - had he been in control of his senses he'd never, given their strong bond have needlessly destroyed White like that.
3. Having said that, look at how Orange reacted to White's slaughter of the two cops in the car - his fellow cops. Not happy. Not happy at all. Therefore, ignore 2. above. Orange told White the truth in revenge for this slaughter, to show that he (a cop) had outwitted him and the others and had ruined the robbery.
4. The last scene chronologically is shown early - Pink running away with the loot, shooting chasing cops, stealing a car and thereby escaping. His words outside the building which we can just about hear at the end of the film were after the car he first tried to escape in crashed into a cop car, or was deliberately driven into by one, disabling both vehicles. He said 'Don't fire, I'm already shot' (or something very similar) simply to distract the cops for just enough time to enable him to run away at top speed, the disabling of the cars explains why the cops were running and not driving after him.
But what do I know??
The look Madsen has during the torcher scene makes me think of that kid standing over an ant-hill with a magnifying glass.
Did you guys hear the gunshots at 5:53? Could that be Mr. Pink being shit by the cops?
Exactly
Mr. Pink, the sensible guy.
My favorite film by Tarantino! I loved the ending with one exception. 6:06, Mr. Orange would NEVER confess to Mr. White that he was actually a cop. At least not while in that warehouse.
I think he felt it was just the right thing to do.
Why not? He feels bad about White because he kept defending him and, even when he was hit by a bullet, White kept comforting him and telling him everything gonna be fine while he himself was bleeding... they clearly have bonded through the film. Seriously it's not so hard to understand why he had the need to tell White he was a cop
He knew he was going to die anyway and he now cares for this man who cared for him
Mr Orange's gun was empty, when did he reload?
Off screen, remember he ejected the magazine.
I always assumed that it was Mr. White's gun
@@frankblack676 he never inserted another mag though
did mr pink die or get away?
Asking to put the gun down doesn't mean they still won't make a move as he continues to sit there with the gun to the undercover cop's face. It just means they gave him one chance and if he didn't act, they'd have no choice but to shoot him. Regardless, I believe Mr. White did shoot Orange because as you said, he showed zero signs of pain after that first shot with the little pause.
It's possible the first shot was a cop who missed the target
I love this movie to death, but what I don't get, is how Mr. Orange who is on the brink of death, survived the 2nd bullet from joe to tell Mr. White that he is a cop when Joe and Nice Guy Eddie got done in one.
Pink shot nice guy
I prefer to think that Mr white didnt actually kill Mr Orange and that one cop in the moment of panic, ended up shotting mr white and then the resto of the cops started shotting as well
