Good DP'n reel

I feel like the most important, and maybe it's just me, part of a DP Reel is the music.  Music does more for feeling than sight ever could.  It's technically a true vibration within your body. Now, grant it, your shot style has to match your music a little bit but more the most part you can edit anything to any tempo.

Which brings us to our next point, editing is important.  Whether you have good shots or bad shots, you can make them look better with timing to the music and general matches in tempo.  The tempo of the shots should basically match the tempo of the music.  Even when you slow and action sequence down and have a light song playing.  If done correctly and with the right timing, it can be rather fascinating. Tarantino has a talent for this.  I love the music in his film but regardless, it's a DP reel.  It's harder to do that without much time but can be done if juxtaposed with the right images.
