Critic Reviews for Reservoir Dogs: Bloody Days
A cool license and a clever time-twisting idea both go to waste in Reservoir Dogs: Bloody Days. With more mission variety, character development, and technical polish I could see this being an unexpectedly fun top-down shooter. As it is, its lack of ambition in scenario design makes too little use of its unique mechanic which, in itself, doesn't always work the way you'd expect it to. Bloody Days also fails to really capture the feel of the movie on which it's based, presenting iconic characters as cheap knock offs that spout their signature lines at odd moments like pull-string toys. While the shooting can be fun and challenging, this one's definitely not worth losing an ear over.
Reservoir Dogs: Bloody Days attempts to pay homage to its source material, but it fails capture the essence of the cult-classic film that inspired it.
Bloody Days fails to capture the attitude and quality of Reservoir Dogs
Reservoir Dogs is a classic movie that deserves a better homage than Bloody Days for its 25th anniversary.
If the game was meant to be a tribute to the 25th anniversary of the film, little of it will be found. As a game of robberies, the rewind mechanics are interesting, but they do not work well enough to be satisfactory.

Even though Bloody Days tries to walk the walk and talk the talk, ultimately it feels less like a creative homage to a cult film classic and more like a shallow imitation with a hint of Tarantino flair.
Even if it wasn't a gross misuse of a license, Reservoir Dogs: Bloody Days is a boring, buggy game with a universal selling point that's nowhere as fun, or as smart, as it thinks it is. And just like Joe Cabot, I'm so goddamn mad hollering at you guys, I can hardly talk.
Reservoir Dogs: Bloody Days is a game with a very well defined gameplay mechanic, but after a few hours it becomes something repetitive.
