From the Paper:

"Reservoir Dogs (1992) is a genre film that takes a satiric look at its own genre, that of the caper film. The film is extremely violent, which for many viewers may hide the satiric thrust of the story and the way the interplay of characters involves a twisted sense of morality, the so-called "honor among thieves," that in this case becomes a palpable presence holding together a group of professional criminals who have nothing else to believe in except that they will be able to rely on each other. As the film unfolds, though, they find they can rely on nothing in a universe of random actions over which they have no control.
The story is deceptively simple: A group of small-time criminals are brought together by a man who has decided how a robbery is to be staged. The robbery itself occurs off-screen."
