The film's gangsters repeatedly injure and kill innocent people without any remorse. At one point in the film, the gangsters tie up a cop they kidnapped and brutally beat him to find out how the police knew the heist was going to happen. Later in the film, Mr. Blonde dances around the room while "Stuck in the Middle" With You" plays on the radio. The upbeat song stands in stark contrast to the sickening torture Mr. Blonde subjects the cop to. He cuts the cop's ear with a razor blade, while smiling, covers him in gasoline, intending to set him on fire, before being shot dead by Mr. Orange. Mr. Blonde shows no remorse in torturing the cop, and he actually seems to enjoy it. The jewelry store robbery is shown during the flashback of Mr. Orange's story. Mr White and Mr Brown are seen in the getaway car and police cars approach them. Mr. White fires two powerful pistols at the police car, killing the officers instantly. Mr. White shows no remorse and immediately moves on. After Mr. Blonde dies, Eddie, the mob boss's son, shows up at the warehouse where Mr. Orange and the tied up cop are. Mr. Orange told Eddie that Mr. Blonde was going to set the cop on fire. Eddie responds, “Oh, that cop? and shoots him in the chest, killing him. Eddie doesn't even think about his decision and murders the cop. There was also a theme of racist language in "Reservoir Dogs". In one scene, Mr. Blonde and Mr. White argue in the warehouse. Mr. Pink tells them to stop acting like "arguing niggers." In a later scene, four of the gangsters are in a car. They talk about black women and gratuitously use the n-word during the scene. A pattern of masculinity, misogyny and homophobia is also present. In the opening scene, Mr. Pink refuses to tip by default and is asked by another gangster if the waitress has to perform sexual acts on him to receive a tip. Later in the film, Joe, the mob boss, tells Mr. Pink that his alias was Mr. Pink because he is "a faggot." All of these prejudiced behaviors are presented unapologetically and usually with a touch of humor. Interpretation I think the themes presented in “Reservoir Dogs” convey the feeling of a frightening world. In a world like Reservoir Dogs, violent gangsters are constantly killing people without any remorse, almost casually. They also speak negatively about groups that are not heterosexual white men. They repeatedly demean women, use racist terms, and kill anyone who might get in their way. I think this film says that violence is power, but it can also be your downfall. In the end, Mr. Pink hides under the stairs during the final shootout and is the only gangster to survive. He.
