Ha, when Mikey said American Beauty doesn't hold up for reasons at the beginning, and he zoomed in on a name that wasn't Kevin Spacey, I had to be like, "oh yeah, I'm from the future."
hard same, especially since i don't even get the problem with alan ball. like true blood was trashy, but it was also mostly good anyway. plus, six feet under tho.
I've paused the video less than a minute in to just figure out what the Alan Ball thing is. I liked True Blood, and according to my wife its 100x better than the books.
watching this video again a year later and almost made the exact same comment until i scrolled down and remembered this thread. seriously though, six feet under. alan ball gave us that gift.
Surprised you didnt mention the scene after Michael witnesses his mother and brother getting killed. He walked to the front door and came face to face with their murderer. But, because it was dark out and the lights were on inside, Daniel Craig's character didnt see him through his own reflection. A true audience gasp moment
"[American Beauty] doesn't hold up for what is now a totally obvious reason" *zooms in on Alan Ball's name* Make this today and the joke would be about Spacey
Oops. I posted a comment about the score and then read your post. It is one of my favorite also. That was the age in which directors put money into excellent composition. Now they waste it on CGI.
Great stuff as always, Mikey. Confession: MwM is basically the only reason I'm subscribed to this channel. As to your next project, Hot Fuzz is the only one of the three I haven't seen a single frame of, but I feel like AI is just so dense, with so many layers to pick apart.
Mikey, I'm thrilled with either of your first two options. Since you picked Perdition, I'm going to assume we have identical taste in movies and suggest Death to Smoochy when you get around to it. Also, another thing we 'tubers do is collaborate. Idk if that's something we can make happen given our totally different chosen genres, but if you get the chance-- I'm down to chat. Edit: Oh shit, you're THAT Mikey from the Borderlands comic. Well then.
+ComicPOP! [m] Ha, yup. That's me! Glad you like the show and you are officially the first other channel to ask me for a collab. *tear* I grow up so fast.
So glad you did one of my all time favorites. I have been obsessed with this soundtrack by Thomas Newman forever. Its what turned me onto him as a composer. Also, youre the best. I love the “but did you know”, JEEazus CGhRist!!¡!! moments. You have one of my favorites voices for essays on here buddy.
Greeting Mikey or representative: I don't really like movies, but I love the passion you bring to your videos about movies. Even when discussing Stinkers, you try and find the good, and determine the cause of the odor. Thanks, keep up the good work, and I hope for your success.
Mikey, this has been one of my favorite movies since it came out when I was... wow 13. Thank you so much for bringing us your thoughts and reminding me how incredible it is. I've dug out my DVD and I'm popping it in right now. Never stop!
So! this is the first film I watched because I found you to be a fantastic reviewer.... and i realized if I missed out on a movie that you did review of then it was time to solve some problems. spoilers I actually skipped your review of this until after I had a chance to watch this for the first time. Funny side note to kick things off you actually highlighted one of the things I absolutely loved about this film, its long shots are brilliant. In a day an age where doing long shots wasn't exactly easy that hallway scene is amazing. Outside of the fact that this movie is absolutely fantastic, and I am certainly glad I finally watched it. I get a little bit of extra joy knowing that it is a father son story, and knowing my father (who passed away) I know he certainly watched this movie as he loved tom hanks movies (an my mom even admitted she thinks she saw part of this film but then lost interest). so it just hit me a little bit more in the feels then i was expecting because yet again i was faced with a film I would have loved to have shared the experience of watching it together with him. Anyway! this is a long comment for a movie review done in 2015. But I just gotta say I will absolutely sort out the other movies you have done that I haven't seen yet. lets see if you do a vote in reverse just for fun.... Zodiac, the long kiss goodnight, or the grand budapest hotel. you did reviews of these an i haven't seen them. if you reply to this with one of them I will absolutely do it next. If you don't reply I will still do all three but in random order. Keep up the good work sir!
I finally got around to seeing the film and while it is phenomenal, I was somewhat disappointed the sequence at 1:52 wasn't like that. Your editing for that bit is astounding and works great as a trailer for the movie as a whole!
Ive been putting this off because I hadn't seen the film, I watched it last night in bed until 2 am, it was an absolute joy and this video has only made me love it more. some great points made here. Thanks Mikey.
I completely agree. This is absolutely a film that is always in my top 5. Every single moment in this film is beautiful and it all plays a part. There is no filler. It is one of the few films I can come back to and am always riveted by. More people should watch it.
One of my favorite movies, that I think I stumbled on as a pure accident, and completely fell in love with. Thanks for giving it such a nice treatment, Mikey. Also, I say AI would be a great movie to cover. They all would, really, but Hot Fuzz and Zodiac got a ton of love from most viewers and critics, while I remember AI getting held down and punched critically when it first came out.
I was aware of it ever since it came out, but never saw this movie until now. I gave it a watch this evening before finally getting to viewing your video (didn't want to be spoiled). And, wow, that was a fantastic film! I love great cinematography. Too often a good story is spoiled by the lack of it. Thanks so much for sharing and pushing me to finally watch it. Oh, and I vote Artificial Intelligence.
Hot Fuzz! The Cornetto trilogy is so well crafted, and your take on World's End was great. That said, I'd also be fascinated to hear what you have to say about Zodiac.
I greatly appreciate your work -- especially here, as it made me want to take another look at this movie. All I remember was the cinematography and the fine acting, but I'm excited to go back through and see what you saw. Thank you :)
Road to Perdition is a spectacular movie and deserves all the time you can give it. Should do Zodiac, a lot of creepy atmosphere despite being set in 1970's San Francisco.
Also Hot Fuzz is one of my favorite movies of all time! I'd love to see you do that one and break down just a FEW of the the ironic echoes that are basically every single line in that movie.
A very good review, and I especially liked the comparison of the painter, Edward Hopper, to the movie, but not even a mention of the score by Thomas Newman, who also composed American Beauty? The score was nominated for Best Original Score.
I really love your enthusiasm for Edgar Wright, so I know that Hot Fuzz would be fun as heck. That said, I would LOOOOOVE to see what you have to say about Zodiac. The Zodiac case has fascinated me since high school, and I really loved the movie. Then again, the production history of AI is super interesting...dammit, Mikey, you're making this too hard!
Mikey, you're editing skillz is real good! And I agree, this movie is an under appreciated gem. I vote Zodiac! I have only seen it the once. I've seen so much on the intricacies of Hot Fuzz, I don't know if there's much new stuff to learn about it. For me anyway.
Hot Fuzz! It's a movie I really didn't like at first, but man did it grow on me over the years. After seeing your breakdown of The World's End (which I loved from the start), I'd love to know what the hell I'm missing in Hot Fuzz even after seeing it so many times.
Love to see this movie getting the respect it so completely deserves. I can't decide between Hot Fuzz and Zodiac for the next one. Speaking of the Cornetto Trilogy, have you read Film Crit Hulk's essay on The World's End? He's one of my favorite internet film critics, and he has an excellent analysis of the trilogy, and he actually mentions some of the same things you talk about in your video for it.
I'd vote for either "The Royal Tenenbaums" or "Shawn of the Dead". Preferably the former as it's my favorite "serious" film, but whatever it is it'll be great I know :).
Ordinarily, I'd pick Hot Fuzz, because that movie's foreshadowing skill is TOP FUCKEN NOTCH. However, my actual pick is Zodiac, because I don't know anything about that one, and I want to be surprised.
This was a spectacular episode. I really hope you continue to do episodes in this style alongside Hot Takes. That intro song is wonderful as well. Keep it up!
I love this movie so much! So many of my favorite actors, and definitely my favorite "gangster" film. Your video on The World's End is the one I show everyone to introduce them to MWM, so Hot Fuzz gets my vote!
One of those films that wrecked me in the theater and scratched its initials on my heart. Now that I have my own wife and two boys it’s a pretty safe bet that it would be an act per day viewing to stay on the safe side.
I know I came into this knowing there'd be spoilers, but you really had to say the dude died in the last half second of the video xD. I was THIS close to actually getting through this whole thing without knowing that xD. Literally said "FUCK" out loud when that happened.
Hmmm... it is a wonderfully shot movie indeed, but I remember not being so amazed by it kinda. Gotta rewatch it though... because it's really beautiful.
Great as always! I just love how... well everything about your Movie with mickey videos. I love it all. But did you know that? My vote is for my favorite Edgar Wright flick, Hot Fuzz.
Given how much you love the Cornetto trilogy, I'd be a jerk if I suggested anything other than Hot Fuzz! I'm not going to rob you of the chance to review that piece of fried gold!
Great job Mikey! Road To Perdition has been on my "To Watch" list for aaaaages, so to hear it repped by you has bumped up the list a great deal. As for next movie, I'm going to vote for AI. I LOVE Hot Fuzz and Zodiac, but AI was a movie I wasn't too crazy about when I saw it in the cinema many years ago, so I think it would be interesting to see what you have to say about it.
somebody compared this movie to John Wick and yeah , they have A LOT in common so much so , that i'm surprised nobody accused John Wick of outright theft
while I love hot fuzz, Artificial Intelligence is a part of my child hood and holds a special place in my heart. In fact seeing that movie at such a young age may have contributed greatly to my attitude towards the field of artificial intelligence.
Really want to hear your thoughts on Zodiac. I think it's probably an under appreciated movie and that so many people who might be voting for Hot Fuzz or AI probably haven't even considered watching it.
Great video mikey! I love this series and it helps that they have been movies I love. Minus Sunshine but I hadn't seen it at the time. I would love to see AI next.
I highly enjoyed this video. I honestly never saw it as a revenge piece myself, always saw it as them trying to escape the whole time. Hot Fuzz be my choice.
Hot Fuzz is my favourite movie of all time but on the other hand I love it when this show exposes me to new films (like this very episode!) and I haven't seen Zodiac... But on the freakish additional third hand AI was an intricate mess of a film and I'd love to see your thoughts on it. I vote for AI!
AI, please and thank you. :) Also, Hot Fuzz. ...also Zodiac. Basically, I'll consume everything you create. Thank you so much for existing! (It's not something we can take for granted!)
"Opening Titles: Set it Free by Allrounda Beats ► bit.ly/Set-It-Free" Mikey puts whatever music he uses in a video in the description so he cannot be sued
Mikey, if you love long-shots (like me), you should check out Abderrahmane Sissako's 2014 masterpiece Timbuktu. It has the most powerful longshot in history this side of Kurosawa's Ran... seriously, no one beats Kurosawa. Timbuktu is also the only movie that has managed to portray terrorists as humans and not Saturday morning cartoon villains and just sticks with you. Check it out!

Ha, when Mikey said American Beauty doesn't hold up for reasons at the beginning, and he zoomed in on a name that wasn't Kevin Spacey, I had to be like, "oh yeah, I'm from the future."
hard same, especially since i don't even get the problem with alan ball. like true blood was trashy, but it was also mostly good anyway. plus, six feet under tho.
I've paused the video less than a minute in to just figure out what the Alan Ball thing is. I liked True Blood, and according to my wife its 100x better than the books.
watching this video again a year later and almost made the exact same comment until i scrolled down and remembered this thread. seriously though, six feet under. alan ball gave us that gift.
Same, but he makes up for it in the Baby Driver video so watch that one for the satisfaction.
Had a similar 'oh, I'm from the future' thought when there was no mention of Hoechlin being the current TV Superman...
Surprised you didnt mention the scene after Michael witnesses his mother and brother getting killed. He walked to the front door and came face to face with their murderer. But, because it was dark out and the lights were on inside, Daniel Craig's character didnt see him through his own reflection. A true audience gasp moment
Damn. I forgot that same. I'm going to have to go watch the whole movie again!
I was so afraid you weren't going to like this film because I just love it so much and it's so goddamned under-appreciated.
But did you KNOOOOOWWWWWW????
Tom Hanks can sweat on cue.
"[American Beauty] doesn't hold up for what is now a totally obvious reason" *zooms in on Alan Ball's name* Make this today and the joke would be about Spacey
You didn't mention how Sexy Thomas Newman's Score was! Personally I think it's his best score.
Justin Ho green mile and shawshank come pretty close Thomas Newman is my favorite composer other than Danny elfman and john William's
Oops. I posted a comment about the score and then read your post. It is one of my favorite also. That was the age in which directors put money into excellent composition. Now they waste it on CGI.
@GiRayne Most of the score is contemporary, except for a few throwback songs. I love Newman's work
[m] Keep the comments coming! It appears so far that all of the films are all pretty even. Keep voting!
Great stuff as always, Mikey. Confession: MwM is basically the only reason I'm subscribed to this channel.

Love this! Your praise of the photography was so worth it - but mention the editing because DAMN!
So glad you did one of my all time favorites. I have been obsessed with this soundtrack by Thomas Newman forever. Its what turned me onto him as a composer. Also, youre the best. I love the “but did you know”, JEEazus CGhRist!!¡!! moments. You have one of my favorites voices for essays on here buddy.
Hoechlin is actually pronounced like "hecklin" Like "heckling" but the contracted version. Like hecklin' Hoechlin for being on Teen Wolf.
I gotta go with Zodiac.
I love Hot Fuzz, but I'm pretty well versed in how/why it's awesome. I'd love to see your take on Zodiac.
This is my favorite movie of all time.
Greeting Mikey or representative: I don't really like movies, but I love the passion you bring to your videos about movies. Even when discussing Stinkers, you try and find the good, and determine the cause of the odor. Thanks, keep up the good work, and I hope for your success.

That wouldn’t make any sense in regards to the movies time and sequence. It’s just a bunch of fast paced cuts in tune with the piano notes.
Ive been putting this off because I hadn't seen the film, I watched it last night in bed until 2 am, it was an absolute joy and this video has only made me love it more.
some great points made here.
Thanks Mikey.
I completely agree. This is absolutely a film that is always in my top 5. Every single moment in this film is beautiful and it all plays a part. There is no filler. It is one of the few films I can come back to and am always riveted by. More people should watch it.
I never get tired of your intro. Your channel is my fuckin favorite thing ever. Thank you!
Loved this episode, they way you break down movies and celebrate them is just amazing!
PLEASE do Artificial Intelligence!!
my mum was deseased a few weeks before i went to see this film. it made me cry. i love this movie.
Lol that zoom in on the American Beauty poster really had me confused for a second. I was like “Wait, you’re moving past Kevin Spacey!”
One of my favorite movies, that I think I stumbled on as a pure accident, and completely fell in love with. Thanks for giving it such a nice treatment, Mikey.
Also, I say AI would be a great movie to cover. They all would, really, but Hot Fuzz and Zodiac got a ton of love from most viewers and critics, while I remember AI getting held down and punched critically when it first came out.
"This movie is absolutely worth seeking out and enjoying every damn frame of it"
This should be printed on the BluRay's cover
Easily in my top 10. Blows me away every time. Never new the squib about Hall re: "He was so beautiful". Thanks for that.
Every time you dog Daniel Craig it made me feel like Damn. Finally someone verbalized how I felt all these years.
I was aware of it ever since it came out, but never saw this movie until now. I gave it a watch this evening before finally getting to viewing your video (didn't want to be spoiled). And, wow, that was a fantastic film! I love great cinematography. Too often a good story is spoiled by the lack of it. Thanks so much for sharing and pushing me to finally watch it.
Oh, and I vote Artificial Intelligence.
Hot Fuzz! The Cornetto trilogy is so well crafted, and your take on World's End was great. That said, I'd also be fascinated to hear what you have to say about Zodiac.
Mikey! I Loved this!!!! Everything from the opening beat, to all the details and the comedy!!
I greatly appreciate your work -- especially here, as it made me want to take another look at this movie. All I remember was the cinematography and the fine acting, but I'm excited to go back through and see what you saw. Thank you :)
Road to Perdition is a spectacular movie and deserves all the time you can give it. Should do Zodiac, a lot of creepy atmosphere despite being set in 1970's San Francisco.
Also Hot Fuzz is one of my favorite movies of all time! I'd love to see you do that one and break down just a FEW of the the ironic echoes that are basically every single line in that movie.
Maybe my favorite intro music to any show. Keep up the good work.
Tom Hanks is an American film treasure and icon. Loved him in The Terminal
A very good review, and I especially liked the comparison of the painter, Edward Hopper, to the movie, but not even a mention of the score by Thomas Newman, who also composed American Beauty? The score was nominated for Best Original Score.
I really love your enthusiasm for Edgar Wright, so I know that Hot Fuzz would be fun as heck. That said, I would LOOOOOVE to see what you have to say about Zodiac. The Zodiac case has fascinated me since high school, and I really loved the movie.
Then again, the production history of AI is super interesting...dammit, Mikey, you're making this too hard!
Gosh such a great film this movie is so underrated!!!
"Dick Tracy villain come to life," Max Allan Collins actually took over Dick Tracy directly from its creator, Chester Gould.
Mikey, you're editing skillz is real good! And I agree, this movie is an under appreciated gem.
I vote Zodiac! I have only seen it the once. I've seen so much on the intricacies of Hot Fuzz, I don't know if there's much new stuff to learn about it. For me anyway.
well I had not seen the movie and at the last scene I was like "(silence)... OOOOOOooooooohhh" !
Hot Fuzz! It's a movie I really didn't like at first, but man did it grow on me over the years. After seeing your breakdown of The World's End (which I loved from the start), I'd love to know what the hell I'm missing in Hot Fuzz even after seeing it so many times.
Love to see this movie getting the respect it so completely deserves. I can't decide between Hot Fuzz and Zodiac for the next one.

Away We Go. Keep the Sam Mendes train rolling.
I love the way you describe characters you don't like.
I'd vote for either "The Royal Tenenbaums" or "Shawn of the Dead". Preferably the former as it's my favorite "serious" film, but whatever it is it'll be great I know :).
Found this movie in the bargain bin like ten years ago and liked the title.
Holy shit I was blown away.
And Tyler Hoechlin is now the Superman on Supergirl, and is hella good.
Ordinarily, I'd pick Hot Fuzz, because that movie's foreshadowing skill is TOP FUCKEN NOTCH. However, my actual pick is Zodiac, because I don't know anything about that one, and I want to be surprised.
This was a spectacular episode. I really hope you continue to do episodes in this style alongside Hot Takes. That intro song is wonderful as well. Keep it up!
Hot damn, Hot Fuzz please! Your video on The World's End really got me into this channel!
I love this movie so much! So many of my favorite actors, and definitely my favorite "gangster" film. Your video on The World's End is the one I show everyone to introduce them to MWM, so Hot Fuzz gets my vote!
One of those films that wrecked me in the theater and scratched its initials on my heart.

Hmmm... it is a wonderfully shot movie indeed, but I remember not being so amazed by it kinda. Gotta rewatch it though... because it's really beautiful.
The easy pick would be Hot Fuzz, because its awesome. But the more interesting movie might be Zodiac. I really hope you review both of them.
Great as always! I just love how... well everything about your Movie with mickey videos. I love it all. But did you know that? My vote is for my favorite Edgar Wright flick, Hot Fuzz.
I loved the review. Your deliberately positive outlook makes all your reviews fun. But why the slight hate on American Beauty? That was a great movie.
Hot Fuzz gets my vote. It's one of my favorite movies, and I'm pretty sure I know why it's my favorite, but I'd still like to hear you talk about it.
I never knew why my husband had two copies of this film, but I understand now.
Please do A.I. I get some flak for liking that movie, but I think it has redeeming qualities and is shot super well. I'd love to see your take on it.
Most excellent. I think I'd be most interested in seeing Hot Fuzz, but I'd watch any of those. Really enjoying this series.
Given how much you love the Cornetto trilogy, I'd be a jerk if I suggested anything other than Hot Fuzz! I'm not going to rob you of the chance to review that piece of fried gold!
Great job Mikey! Road To Perdition has been on my "To Watch" list for aaaaages, so to hear it repped by you has bumped up the list a great deal.
As for next movie, I'm going to vote for AI. I LOVE Hot Fuzz and Zodiac, but AI was a movie I wasn't too crazy about when I saw it in the cinema many years ago, so I think it would be interesting to see what you have to say about it.
But DIDJOOKNOOOOOOOWWWWWW?
Tyler Hoechicoochieachybreaky is now on CBS/CW Supergirl as GODDAMNED SUPERMAN
That Ending man
I'll echo some sentiments - Hot Fuzz is my favourite of this list, but I think I am most interested to hear your thoughts on A.I.
somebody compared this movie to John Wick
and yeah , they have A LOT in common
so much so , that i'm surprised nobody accused John Wick of outright theft
Zodiac, if only because the cinematography is AMAZING. Good video on RTP tho!
while I love hot fuzz, Artificial Intelligence is a part of my child hood and holds a special place in my heart. In fact seeing that movie at such a young age may have contributed greatly to my attitude towards the field of artificial intelligence.
Really want to hear your thoughts on Zodiac. I think it's probably an under appreciated movie and that so many people who might be voting for Hot Fuzz or AI probably haven't even considered watching it.
To be fair, Tyler Hoechlin is a pretty darn good Superman, on 'Supergirl'.
Jude Law's villain character is very underrated, and the kid would become superman too.
Great video mikey! I love this series and it helps that they have been movies I love. Minus Sunshine but I hadn't seen it at the time. I would love to see AI next.
I highly enjoyed this video. I honestly never saw it as a revenge piece myself, always saw it as them trying to escape the whole time.
Hot Fuzz be my choice.
Hot Fuzz would be awesome, but I'm wondering how you would censor the language in the film. You've already done vegetables, now I wanna see fruit.
Hot Fuzz! it's one of the few movies I can watch over and over again without getting bored.
I'm most interested in seeing Hot Fuzz, but would also like to see AI and Zodiac at later dates.
Hot Fuzz is my favourite movie of all time but on the other hand I love it when this show exposes me to new films (like this very episode!) and I haven't seen Zodiac...
But on the freakish additional third hand AI was an intricate mess of a film and I'd love to see your thoughts on it.
I vote for AI!
Man... I'm about 2:35 into this.. and I NEED to see this movie..
As much as I want you to do Zodiac, I think I'm gonna have to jump into the A.I. camp and suggest you do that one.
AI, please and thank you. :)
Also, Hot Fuzz.
...also Zodiac.
Basically, I'll consume everything you create. Thank you so much for existing! (It's not something we can take for granted!)
Another great review, I would be interested in your take on A.I.
Mikey, I love your series. Thanks for the great research, comments and humor you pack into each episode!
Vote: AI
Road to perdition will always feel special to me, I saw it with my parents at the cinema. Anyway, my vote is for Hot Fuzz
This movie is instrumental in my maturation as a film geek.
I love these videos but this has been driving me nuts. What is the song you use at the beginning of your videos?
"Opening Titles: Set it Free by Allrounda Beats ► bit.ly/Set-It-Free" Mikey puts whatever music he uses in a video in the description so he cannot be sued
Hot Fuzz is an obvious favorite, here, but AI would probably be more fascinating to hear your take on. So, I guess, AI --> Hot Fuzz --> Zodiac
I love that Mikey likes the "Execution" in this film
I think this film woulda been nominated for best picture in '03 if the noms were up to ten
You deserve more views! Great video
Mikey, if you love long-shots (like me), you should check out Abderrahmane Sissako's 2014 masterpiece Timbuktu. It has the most powerful longshot in history this side of Kurosawa's Ran... seriously, no one beats Kurosawa. Timbuktu is also the only movie that has managed to portray terrorists as humans and not Saturday morning cartoon villains and just sticks with you. Check it out!
I think the film would have been even more effective in B&W, it's a real masterpiece by Conrad Hall.
Great one Mikey! Do Hot Fuzz next!
Please please please Hot Fuzz, it's one of my FAVORITE movies!
Hot Fuzz Hot Fuzz Hot Fuzz.
And then maybe do a video about the Three Flavors trilogy as a whole.
Zodiac please, I like how you introduce me to movies I've never seen before.
This is a great movie. I showed it to my dad, who could not understand why Tom Hanks wasn't being funny.
He was 85 at the time
Hot Fuzz. It'll be a long one though, because there's so much going on in that movie. It's an onion of awesome.
