Daniel Cruse is a writer at Collider who focuses on crime films, classic movies, action, martial arts, and horror cinema.

Reservoir Dogs is a modern crime classic, following the before-and-after of a jewel heist gone wrong. The movie was the first feature by Quentin Tarantino, and features an ensemble cast including Harvey Keitel, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, and Steve Buscemi. The crew of robbers, who are identified only by color-coordinated code names, are professional thieves on the run after their attempted getaway turns into a police shootout.

Edward Bunker Plays Mr. Blue in 'Reservoir Dogs' Decades before he was in Reservoir Dogs, Bunker had a storied criminal past. Bunker served multiple prison sentences from the 1950s to the 1970s for crimes ranging from bank robberies to drug dealing and extortion. Bunker even became the youngest prisoner to ever serve time at San Quentin, at the age of 17. His final stint in prison came after he avoided a 20-year-sentence for drug pushing. He ended up serving five years.

Reservoir Dogs is not a work that is intended to accurately portray the intricacies of a criminal conspiracy or heist.
