Reservoir Dogs/Characters

Affably Evil: He is the most polite of the robbers, tips waitresses, and has a distaste for killing innocent people, but as Mr.Orange found out the hard way, "just because he's a nice guy doesn't mean he won't kill you."
Anti-Villain: Type I
Badass
Berserk Button - "Don't you call me an asshole!"
Big Brother Mentor - to Orange.
Even Evil Has Standards - He doesn't kill civilians. And he always tips waitresses.
Hair-Trigger Temper
The Hero: A villainous example.
Jerkass: Although less so than Mr. Pink and Nice Guy Eddie.
Large Ham
The McCoy
Rated "M" for Manly: "Shit, you shoot me in a dream and you better wake up and apologize" and other general badassery. Makes his extremely unmanly, undignified sobbing at the end of the movie all the more jarring.
Noble Demon: In some ways.
Villain Protagonist
Villainous Breakdown: Very often due to his Hair-Trigger Temper, but the most prominent one was when he finds out that Mr. Orange is a cop all along.

Asshole Victim: Who doesn't cares if he dies?
Ax Crazy: Oh, so very much.
The Big Guy
Bait the Dog: Jesus Fucking Christ.
Cute and Psycho
Faux Affably Evil
For the Evulz
Psycho for Hire
The Sociopath
Soft-Spoken Sadist: He never raises his voice even where he's describing to cop how much he'll enjoy tortured him or killing a crowd of people in a store because the alarm went off.
The Stoic

Asshole Victim: Surprisingly averted.
Butt Monkey
The Complainer Is Always Wrong
Jerkass
The Smart Guy
The Spock
Straight Gay: If Joe's logic for naming him Mr. Pink is anything to go by, given his professional demeanor throughout the picture.

Becoming the Mask
Hollywood Nerd: Has a Silver Surfer poster in his apartment and talks about the Fantastic Four and Baretta.
The Lancer
The Mole
Obfuscating Stupidity
Pop-Cultured Badass
Politically-Incorrect Villain: Averted. If you listen, he is the only character who doesn't spew racist, misogynist, or homophobic dialogue, which leads to a Fridge Brilliance moment when you realize he is a cop with a African-American chief, whom he seems to respect, and is probably a nice guy in real life.
Screams Like a Little Girl: But so would you if you were shot in the gut.
Took a Level in Badass
Undercover Cop Reveal

Asshole Victim
Berserk Button: "STOP POINTING THAT GUN AT MY DAD!"
The Dragon: To his father.
Fiery Redhead
Non-Sibling Rivalry: He and his pal Mr. Blonde seem to have a little of this going on in their relationship with Joe. Subverted in that both men are genuinely loyal to one another.
Jerkass
Politically-Incorrect Villain: Even moreso than the rest of the cast.
Villainous Breakdown: When he finds outs from Mr. Orange about Mr. Blonde wanting to kill all of them, and again when he gets involved in the Mexican Standoff between him, his dad and Mr. White.
