    The style and rhythm to this movie is just perfection. Each single word has meaning and the pure storytelling is unbelievable.

    The cast is impossibly stacked. Apart from the obvious, they got bit parts for Hank Azaria (Simpsons voice actor), iconic rapper Tone Loc, metal legend Henry Rollins, it just goes on and on. Random legends just show up for a few seconds here and there.

    “Heist” is a lesser known crime film. Starring Gene Hackman. I think it’s written by David Mamet. Really smart and well done.

      @@WatchMeMovie I remain astounded every time I watch Heat that it received ZERO nominations at the Academy Awards. The sound design, as you point out, is textbook: the vacuum before the windows blow out of those cars, the fluttering of the tinsel bunting at that car dealership before the shit hits the fan, Pacino’s breath (as you pointed out), the alternating between the near silence and the roar of the airplanes in that last scene, the percussive thunder of the battle in the street. It’s some of the best sound design in the history of movies.

    Neil's downfall turned out not to be getting attached to his new girl, but rather being unable to forgo his vengeance on Waingro. Great reaction to a great movie. You'll probably also enjoy 'Thief' with James Caan - also by Michael Mann.

    • @emil87th
      @emil87th ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, Thief is basically HEAT-light, there are scenes in HEAT lifted straight out of Thief, or heavily influenced by it.
      If you've seen HEAT you don't have to watch Thief unless you want to.
      HEAT is basically the new and improved version of Thief.

    I love that you noticed the sound design right away... its a huge part of this movie, as I am sure you know now. Also, Michael Mann's iconic cinematography and his love for Lost Angeles, its lightning in a bottle. MM is known for his location scouting adventures.
    Such a classic.

  • @kylegacy
    @kylegacy ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The prodigal son returns! I adore the cinematography in this. Also the sound design is spectacular, but during the gun fight, the reason it sounds so deafening is because Michael Mann had microphones placed around the street so it captured the gunfire live. In fact, another detail about that entire scene, Marines are still shown how the crew progress down the street and retreat, as well as how to reload as quickly as Val Kilmer does. Quite impressive.

    My 2nd favorite movie of all time. It's just perfect IMO. Michael Mann is SO good at crime dramas. It's amazing how Mann and Deniro make you feel compassion for the character of Neil, who "in real life" would be a deplorable person. And the song at the very end after Deniro gets shot, is amazing. Moby's "God Moving Over the Face of the Water" is such a beautiful piece. And don't get me started on the bank heist scene. Simply amazing.

    Just imagine, that classic diner scene with Al & Bob, instead of talkin' 'bout Cops & Robbers in that conversation, they're actually talkin' 'bout their acting career. Watch that sequence again, and you'll understand what I'm talking about (actually I saw this, and came up with this theory, the first time I saw this movie in the cinema).

    So nice to see your handsome face back here. You probably already know this but in 1997 the North Hollywood shootout, one of the biggest gun battles in the history of Los Angeles, went down when two bank robbers went on a shooting rampage. They were wearing body armor and totally outgunned the cops, who had to commandeer weapons and ammo from local gun shops. The whole thing didn't last long, or maybe it was an eternity, depending on ones perspective - 44 min. But it was very much like the shootout at the end of this movie.
    There are plenty of videos on YT with footage of the whole thing.

    video game you referred to: kane and lynch…. the second game (‘dog days’) has some interesting visual approaches and direction. also both games had the underrated stories.

    ?? People are complaining that a Film student is commenting on camera angles, and such? They might be watching the wrong React Channel, then. 😂
    That was my interest in his p.o.v. There are a lot of React Channels for people who just want that, "hey, I'm a wacky morning radio dj, I have funny comments and make funny faces", if that's what they want. 😂

    Very good movie overall with solid acting and directing. Excellent plot and script. One of the best firefight scenes ever put on the big screen. I give the film a solid four stars out of five. (PS: Congrats on finishing school and moving on in life.)

    You were right about the sound design, I saw this movie when it was released in the cinema, and especially that incredible robbery/shoot-out scene was amazing, it was the loudest noise/sounds I've ever heard in a movie theater. Btw, most people who watch this movie, thinks the dead girl, is the same girl (the ''call girl'') who's killed by that (f*ckin') serial killer, but it's not....probably one day, we're goin' to get a 4 hour version of ''Heat'', 'cause there are more open plot holes when it comes to its storytelling....
