Year: 1995
Director: Michael Mann
Plot: A successful career criminal considers getting out of the business after one last score, while an obsessive cop desperately tries to put him behind bars in this intelligent thriller written and directed by Michael Mann. Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro) is a thief who specializes in big, risky jobs, such as banks and armored cars. He's very good at what he does; he's bright, methodical, and has honed his skills as a thief at the expense of his personal life, vowing never to get involved in a relationship from which he couldn't walk away in 30 seconds. Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino) is an L.A.P.D. detective determined to catch McCauley, but while McCauley's personal code has forced him to do without a wife and children, Hanna's dedication has made a wreck of the home he's tried to have; he's been divorced twice, he's all but a stranger to his third wife, and he has no idea how to reach out to his troubled step-daughter. While McCauley has enough money to retire and is planning to move to New Zealand, he loves the thrill of robbery as much as the profit, and is blocking out plans for one more job; meanwhile, he's met a woman, Eady (Amy Brenneman), whom he's not so sure he can walk away from. The supporting cast includes Val Kilmer as Chris, one of McCauley's partners; Ashley Judd as his wife Charlene; Jon Voight as Nate; Hank Azaria as Alan Marciano; and Henry Rollins as Hugh, who is beaten up by Hanna. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Body: NEW TO THEATRES 2/20 1. Madea Goes to Jail - Watch the trailer. Until today, I thought Tyler Perry's Madea was like a kooky update of Jim Varney's Ernest P. Worrell. (Considering Ernest Goes to Jail, can you blame me?) Then I started looking into Tyler Perry, and even though I don't think his movies are for me, he seems like a really interesting guy. Two quotes from him on Wikipedia really caught my eye: 1) "I know my audience, and they're not people that the studios know anything about." 2) "Did you know you can't say 'Jesus' in a sitcom? They told me that and I was like, You gotta be kiddin' me...God has been too good to me to go and try to sell out to get some money." I was impressed to learn that Tyler Perry's been writing plays since he was 18, and according to Wikipedia, by 2005 his plays earned $75 million in ticket sales! Who knew? Madea Goes to Jail itself was a stage play in 2006, and a filmed version has already appeared on DVD. Has anyone seen that? 2. Fired Up - Watch the trailer. Teen comedy, whooooooo! Two randy football players avoid summer football camp by becoming cheerleaders. 3. Eleven Minutes (limited) - Watch the trailer. A documentary about fashion designer Jay McCarroll trying to set up an independently-produced runway show. NEW TO DVD - 2/17 1. Quarantine - Watch the trailer. This one looked pretty thrilling to me. An inner city apartment building is subjected to a government quarantine, but what's infecting the victims? 2. Body of Lies - Watch the trailer. Kevin Buist from FilmCouch saw this and didn't love it. Here's his review. 3. Choke - Watch the trailer. Kevin Buist wasn't crazy about this one either, so maybe he's just a big fuddy-duddy. Listen to his review. 4. Changeling - Watch the trailer. This was getting a lot of Oscars buzz until everyone actually saw it. Oh well, Clint Eastwood made a winner with Gran Torino. 5. High School Musical 3 - Watch the trailer. Well, I'm sure that whatever this movie's supposed to do, it does it well. Does anyone else think 'Corbin Bleu' sounds like a gourmet meal? 6. Righteous Kill - Watch the trailer. Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro are in the same movie for only the third time. Since the first two movies were Godfather Pt. II and Heat, this third time is most definitely not 'a charm.' 7. Midnight Meat Train - Watch the trailer. Here's another dose of Bradley Cooper for everyone who's crushing (or man-crushing) on him from He's Just Not That Into You. Myself, I have a bit of a man-crush on the villain, who's played by tough-as-nails Vinnie Jones. 8. How to Lose Friends and Alienate People - Watch the trailer. Simon Pegg starts working for a pompous fashion magazine. Also stars Kirsten Dunst, Megan Fox, Jeff Bridges and Danny Huston -- all people I like. The movie didn't get very good reviews, though... I'm looking forward to Simon Pegg teaming up with Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz) again, and I'm glad he's playing Scotty in the new Star Trek movie.

Body: New to DVD 12/6 1. Pineapple Express -- Watch the trailer. Oh man, this was entertaining! We're giving away some Pineapple Express DVDs in Filmgaming. 2. The Wackness -- Watch the trailer. Read the review. Ben Kingsley is a therapist whose teenage pot dealer starts dating his daughter. Wackness ensues. 3. NetherBest Incorporated -- Watch the trailer. Darrell Hammond and Dave Foley star in this vampire comedy that looks better than Dracula: Dead and Loving It. 4. The Orphanage (El Orfanato) -- Watch the trailer. This extraordinary Spanish horror film is the closest I've ever come to screaming in the theater. It's been released on DVD once before, but I like it so much I had to mention it again. 5. Righteous Kill -- Watch the trailer. Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro together again, but I hear this is no Heat. 6. Eden Lake -- Watch the trailer. A couple's romantic getaway becomes a fight for survival when they're targeted by a group of malicious young men. 7. And something for the Blu-ray fans: Criterion Collection's The Last Emperor (Blu-ray). Watch the trailer.

Body: Interesting anime picks:) Here are some others I thought of: Harry Callahan from Dirty Harry He's so likeable that most people probably wouldn't even peg him as an anti-hero, but when you think about it, he really boils down to a vigilante. Indeed, Eastwood took so much crap for it that the sequel had him firmly rebuffing real vigilantes. He's a "the ends justify the means" kinda guy though, which lands him on this list:) 'Mad' Max Rockatansky from Mad Max and The Road Warrior A good guy who is twisted by vengeance, etc... but eventually comes back to do the right thing. Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver Ok, so he's a little weird and some may have trouble relating to him, but he's really just exaggerated for effect. I think there's a little of Travis Bickle in everyone. He's basically a good guy and wants to do good in the world, he just doesn't know how to do that... Henry Hil from Goodfellas You can totally understand and relate to this guy, even though he's clearly a lowlife scumbag gangster:p Sanjuro in Yojimbo and Sanjuro I totally agree with the previous choice of The Man With No Name, and Sanjuro is basically the same character (after all, A Fistful of Dollars is basically the same as Yojimbo) Neil McCauley and for that matter, Lt. Vincent Hanna from Heat Flip sides of a coin, these are both likeable and flawed characters.

Body: One thing that Michael Mann is great at doing is leaving the viewer feeling overwhelmed. He does it again with this epic action/thriller. The scope of this film is enormous and the performances are phenomenal especially from De Niro and Pacino. Other than that is there a reason to see this film the answer to that question is a most definite yes!! I was enthralled by every frame and shot of this picture as I was watching it I couldn't help but love all of the characters (even the villains) there is so much story and character development that the action almost gets in the way. All in all I think that this is one of the most beautiful and compelling thrillers I have ever seen and if you love film at all you should most certainly see it!!

Body: Olly Blackburn’s sexy thriller Donkey Punch premiered at Sundance earlier this year, and we caught it as part of Fantastic Fest, where it was paired with a “Hipsters Overboard!” Donkey Punch Boat Party on Town Lake in Austin, which sadly did not involve the actually tossing overboard of any hipsters. Austin has tight jean, rakish-angle hat-wearing party rats coming out of the woodwork, and it probably would have been a benefit if some had slipped into the dark water, never to be seen again. The film is what you would get if you mashed Dead Calm and Open Water 2 together and sprinkled it liberally with heavy doses of ecstasy and trance club music. I know that it probably doesn’t instill a lot of confidence in a review when you reference Open Water 2: Adrift in the second paragraph, but that film should have had a title of its own and not been a sequel, because it’s not a bad Saturday afternoon thriller itself. Plus, it also involves a gaggle of young hipsters who shouldn’t be out on a luxury yacht. The plot of the film is fairly basic: three London girls visiting Mallorca on vacation meet up with three boys in town who crew on a yacht. Before long, they’re all out partying on the yacht, now with the addition of a 4th boy who was keeping an eye on the boat. Liberal amounts of drugs, alcohol and music lead to storytelling, where we all find out what a “donkey punch” is, and then, of course, to some donkey punching. It’s fairly graphic orgy-style sex, which is why the film landed an NC-17 rating for the States. Of course, the young and impressionable brother decides that he needs to impress, and he dishes out a donkey punch. This doesn’t really have the same desired result as the urban legend, and it results in one very dead blonde partygirl. The rest of the film concerns the boys trying to decide what to do about the situation. When they decide to dump the dead body overboard and say she fell off while drunk, the other two girls don’t take it too well. Suffice it to say there’s plenty of screaming, pleading, bleeding, and dying. While the film doesn’t feel like a groundbreaking new indie or cinematic breakthrough, what’s impressive is that Blackburn manages to make this feel like an extremely expensive film, even though the budget was only a million pounds. The actors, pretty much unknown to American audiences, all give solid performances, although Tom Burke stands out among them as the antagonizing Bluey. The film looks gorgeous and has an ambient moody score that is reminiscent of Michael Mann’s Heat. Blackburn has only directed three small films and an episode of a television series in the UK, however Donkey Punch manages to feel like a slickly produced studio movie with at least ten times the budget. If you’re in the mood for a Shallow Grave-esque thriller with a bit more sex and drugs, then you’ll probably want to check out this movie. Let’s just hope that it doesn’t give rise to Dirty Sanchez: The Movie. Originally posted on:SpoutBlog

Body: Watching Kabluey the other night, I was delighted to see that Lisa Kudrow is letting the camera record her age (45), at least in this movie. Her part required her to look haggard and beaten down, but not necessarily mid-forties; in this business, it takes some guts to show your age, especially if you're female. Helen Hunt, born the same year, looks 45 in Then She Found Me, which is good, except that as the director, she cast herself as a 39-year-old trying to conceive. Does this mean that she thinks that she still looks 39 onscreen? I like Helen Hunt, so I hope that she isn't deluding herself. A while back I found I Could Never Be Your Woman unwatchable because Michelle Pfeiffer has had so much work done that I feel creepy looking at her. See, everybody should be in charge of their own body and if someone wants to get a little plastic surgery done, fine. Their perogative. But as a movie-goer, it's my perogative to choose not to go to films that creep me out. Sorry, Michelle. In the movie she's the October in a May/October relationship, which is good, but that face. Whew.And as soon as I say that, here comes Aging Gracefully with Michelle Pfeiffer.The common trope on women is: "Except for occasional supporting roles as mothers (who are never germane to the plot), Hollywood actresses disappear from the screen at about age 35 or certainly by 40. After of few years of exile, they turn up as has-been semi-celebrities on reality shows then disappear again until they age into grande dames like Helen Mirren, Judi Dench and Maggie Smith." (Ronni Bennett) Somehow I've been thinking that there are more women of middle age in the movies now than there used to be. True or false? Women who never stoped working, like Geneviève Bujold and Charlotte Rampling. Hmm. In their forties or older: Nicole Kidman, Lucy Liu, Laura Linney, Demi Moore, Julia Roberts, Holly Hunter, Meg Ryan, Mary-Louise Parker, Elizabeth Perkins, Mary McConnell, Felicity Huffman, Teri Hatcher, Alfre Woodward, Geena Davis, Stockard Channing, Frances Conroy, Glenn Close, Bette Midler, Susan Sarandon, Goldie Hawn. I keep thinking of more. Angelica Houston. Lily Tomlin. Sarah Palin. Debra Winger. Catherine Deneuve. Got to stop. Signorney Weaver, Isabella Rossallini, Juliette Binoche, Isabelle Adjani, Lili Taylor, Jane Curtain. Got... to... let... it... go. Janeane Garofalo. Julie Delpy. Sharon Stone. And by the way, Helen Mirren was never out of work, nor was Maggie Smith, nor was Dame Dench.I remember how pleased I was when Pacino let his age show, in movies like... hmm... when did he start looking ravaged? Heat? Scent of a Woman?. Not like Cary Grant in North By Northwest or Gable in Teacher's Pet - geezers romancing younger women. I like Grant and Gable but having them nuzzling young dishes in their late 50s... Ugh. To me, Gable and Doris Day in a clinch has not aged well. Meanwhile, my hat is off to Clint Eastwood for making Laura Linney his daughter instead of his squeeze in Absolute Power. He was pushing it with Streep in Madison County (she's 19 years younger than he is). And Redford and Deniro just throw their aging mugs up there onscreen without feathers. So too Woody Allen, but thank God he's finally stopping pairing himself with young women.Btw, Paul Newman. RIP. There was a guy who looked great all the way through.Burt Reynolds, once, just once, take off the rug. In Leatherheads, Renee Zellweger, 39, claims to be 29; does she mean it or was that just a character lying about her age? Stallone, ok, he's had so much work done that he's entered the realm of the weird but for some reason that doesn't bother me at all. There he is in the latest Rambo, totally unwrinkled and supposedly a guy living as a snake-catcher out in the bushes and that totally works for me. On the other hand, what is it with Mathew Broderick? I kept staring at him in Then She Found Me, trying to figure out what's strange about his face. He looks like a recovered burn victim. I googled his name along with "work done" and all I got were hits about his wife's plastic surgery (Sarah Jessica Parker's, that is).Bottom line: skip the lift. P.S.: Parker Posey, Maggie Cheung, Michelle Yeoh, Mary Kay Place, Dianne Weist.

Signorney Weaver, Isabella Rossallini, Juliette Binoche, Isabelle Adjani, Lili Taylor, Jane Curtain. Got... to... let... it... go. Janeane Garofalo. Julie Delpy. Sharon Stone. And by the way, Helen Mirren was never out of work, nor was Maggie Smith, nor was Dame Dench.I remember how pleased I was when Pacino let his age show, in movies like... hmm... when did he start looking ravaged? Heat? Scent of a Woman?. Not like Cary Grant in North By Northwest or Gable in Teacher's Pet - geezers romancing younger women. I like Grant and Gable but having them nuzzling young dishes in their late 50s... Ugh. To me, Gable and Doris Day in a clinch has not aged well. Meanwhile, my hat is off to Clint Eastwood for making Laura Linney his daughter instead of his squeeze in Absolute Power. He was pushing it with Streep in Madison County (she's 19 years younger than he is). And Redford and Deniro just throw their aging mugs up there onscreen without feathers. So too Woody Allen, but thank God he's finally stopping pairing himself with young women.Btw, Paul Newman. RIP. There was a guy who looked great all the way through.Burt Reynolds, once, just once, take off the rug. In Leatherheads, Renee Zellweger, 39, claims to be 29; does she mean it or was that just a character lying about her age? Stallone, ok, he's had so much work done that he's entered the realm of the weird but for some reason that doesn't bother me at all. There he is in the latest Rambo, totally unwrinkled and supposedly a guy living as a snake-catcher out in the bushes and that totally works for me. On the other hand, what is it with Mathew Broderick? I kept staring at him in Then She Found Me, trying to figure out what's strange about his face. He looks like a recovered burn victim. I googled his name along with "work done" and all I got were hits about his wife's plastic surgery (Sarah Jessica Parker's, that is).Bottom line: skip the lift. P.S.: Parker Posey, Maggie Cheung, Michelle Yeoh, Mary Kay Place, Dianne Weist. http://www.spout.com/groups/Weekly_Theme/Re_Weekly_Theme_for_September_8_The_Heist/625/34976/1/ShowPost.aspx Post By: SkyPilot

Body: Ocean's 13 is a heist movie with a social conscience, and that makes it my favorite. Favorite heist scene? Gotta be The Dark Knight, seeing the Joker ensure he's the only surviving robber. Heat has two really gripping heist scenes (the money truck and the bank). The bank heist explodes into one of the most intense & realistic action sequences I've ever seen. I didn't like Before the Devil Knows You're Dead very much, but it includes a heart-wrenching scene of a heist gone wrong. I don't recommend The Bank Job. SpoutBlog writer Stephen Boone watched it with ex-cons in a halfway house. Their perspective is pretty interesting.

Body: Waa-hooo! This Friday we are officially delivered from the movie release Dead Zone! Let Oscar-bait season begin!FEATURES1. Burn After Reading -- New Coen bros. movie this Friday! Does the trailer for this dark spy comedy remind anyone else of the dark stoner/detective comedy The Big Lebowski?Brad Pitt and John Malkovich are both interviewed about the film on SpoutBlog.And there's a Recast The Big Lebowski contest you're all welcome to join in the Filmgaming group. The swag we're giving away would go great with a bathrobe.2. Righteous Kill -- Robert Deniro and Al Pacino do the bad cop/bad cop routine.This could be...(a) a supremely awesome, double-espresso shot of testosterone, a la Michael Mann's Heat. Or this could be ...(b) a blown opportunity on the level of The Score (remember that extremely forgettable movie with Deniro, Marlon Brando, and Ed Norton?) Unfortunately I'm expecting Righteous Kill to be closer to option (b). Director Jon Avnet is no Michael Mann. His most recent film 88 Minutes starred Al Pacino, was in theaters for about half an hour, and barely got a kind word spoken about it. There's some hope for Avnet, though -- the first film he directed was Fried Green Tomatoes.3. Tyler Perry's The Family That Preys -- Of all Tyler Perry films, this one looks most interesting to me. Kathy Bates and Alfre Woodard are long-time friends and the matriarchs of two seemingly different families: Bates' family is wealthy and WASPy, while Woodard's family is working class African American. The families experience similar crises, including extramarital affairs and unethical business practices.I haven't seen any Tyler Perry movies. Any fans out there that could recommend a film to start with?4. Christmas on Mars: A Fantastical Film Freakout Featuring the Flaming Lips -- (limited release) This sci-fi flick is the directorial debut of Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne. The story: it's Christmastime on Mars. When the community's life support system begins to malfunction, one man on the repair team begins to hallucinate about the birth of a baby. The Lips provide the music and each band member plays a role.I'm far from a die-hard Lips fan, but this sounds incredible! The film sounds like a natural (but inspired) progression from creating rock operas like Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. I'd enjoy seeing more rock opera movies. Are there any films you guys would recommend? I was disappointed by Tommy, and I haven't seen Pink Floyd: The Wall (I only like about half of the music on The Wall). If you guys haven't watched The Wizard of Oz while listening to Dark Side of the Moon, I highly recommend it.Here's the trailer for Christmas on Mars: 5. The Women -- This contemporary remake of feminist comedy drama The Women (1939) stars Annette Bening, Candice Bergen, Jada Pinkett Smith, Meg Ryan, Eva Mendes, and Debra Messing. The story begins when the most-envied of the women discovers her husband is having an affair with a shopgirl. With smaller roles played by Bette Midler, Cloris Leachman, and Carrie Fisher, this movie has as many stars as The Thin Red Line.Has anyone seen the original The Women? The remake is being called gossipy and bitchy-wisecracking; do you have any other bitchy-wisecracking favorites?DOCUMENTARIES6. Flow: For Love of Water -- (limited release) Presents how corporate privatization of water is adversely affecting many around the world. 7. Moving Midway -- (limited release) When Raleigh, NC man Charlie Cheshire decides to relocate the historic buildings of the Midway plantation, white Raleigh residents are outraged at the idea of moving their beloved symbol of the Old South. This is contrasted by the perspective of another branch of the Chesire family--the descendants of the slaves who were owned by the white Cheshires. The two branches of the Cheshire family meet on camera, which would be very interesting to see. Here's the trailer:

Body: Ah, the back to school season. College students across the nation are so occupied with drinking, packing, traveling, and vomiting that they can't get a movie in edgewise. So with the possibility of a big opening weekend thrown out the window, the studios are unveiling some movies I'd like to throw out a window. These movies made me think of some good films to talk about, though.Babylon A.D. (8-29) -- I've met a few enthusiastic members of the Pitch Black cult, but still haven't seen that or Chronicles of Riddick. Any fans of these movies who are looking forward to Babylon A.D.? I would see this movie more for Michelle Yeoh, who could definitely kick Vin Diesel's ass. Traitor (8-29) -- Is it just me, or does this movie look as generic as those cereals that come in plastic bags? It could surprise me though, starring reliables like Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, and Jeff Daniels. Still, if I'm going to see a thriller about treason I'll watch The Hunt for Red October again. I found the recent Breach (Ryan Philippe, Chris Cooper) only passable, though the ever-excellent Cooper succeeded at making me feel as sordid as his character. Any treason thrillers you guys recommend?If you like the actors in Traitor, get a load of Cheadle in Devil in a Blue Dress, Guy Pearce in The Proposition, and Jeff Daniels in The Squid and the Whale.Disaster Movie (8-29) -- Even the two-minute trailer to this comedy feels an hour too long. College (8-29) -- (sigh) If you were stuck on a deserted island with only Disaster Movie or College, which one would you pick?Maria Bethania: Music is Perfume (8-29, limited release) -- Huge in Brazil, I haven't heard of the singer until now. Turns out she's released over thirty albums in forty-some years. "Samba is sadness dancing," she says, so if this documentary is as thoughtful and articulate as Maria, fans of Latin and world music might enjoy it. I've realized that the music docs I prefer all include mad men: Dig! follows the feud between The Dandy Warhols and The Brian Jonestown Massacre; You're Gonna Miss Me shows psych-rock innovator Roky Erickson's sad but winning battle with schizophrenia; and Townes Van Zandt is quietly crazy in the heartbreakingly beautiful Be Here to Love Me. We just have to hang in there until September 12 for the new Coen Brothers movie Burn After Reading. Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Frances McDormand and John Malkovich in a dark spy-comedy--how could this film go wrong? Though I'm a little worried about Righteous Kill (also Sept. 12). Robert Deniro and Al Pacino doing a bad cop/bad cop routine looks like some supremely macho entertainment, and I'm fine with that. The chemistry between these actors in Heat was tremendous, but I wonder how much of that had to do with director Michael Mann? I'm wary that Righteous Kill director Jon Avnet might blow it, because if his recent team-up with Al Pacino, 88 Minutes, is any indication of how righteous Righteous Kill will be...we're doomed.

Body: Having missed the launch whilst on vacation, I finally sat down last night and watched all three episodes of Joss Whedon’s musical web miniseries Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog back-to-back-to-back. I had two major notes: 1. When did Joss Whedon and Michael Mann become the same guy? Dr. Horrible is a lone wolf anti-hero whose single-minded devotion to his professional obligation to save a small corner of the world (in this case, by way of organized evil) makes the very concept of romance inconvenient. Sound familiar? “Why did she talk to me now?” Billy/Dr. Horrible laments, after prospective love interest Penny makes contact right as he’s about to jump start an evil mission. This segues directly into a song with the refrain, “A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do.” What Whedon does is the self-mocking, defeatist, loveable loser version of what Mann does, in terms of love as a blight on the record of men who should be above it. This leads me to my second though, regarding Dr. Horrible’s controversial ending: 2. Is the end really the end? “Barring some kind of goofy, character-defying twist like making Penny turn out to be Bad Horse, Dr. Horrible was going to end one of two ways: Dr. Horrible gets the girl, or Dr. Horrible becomes the supervillain of his dreams,” Alan Sepinwall wrote. “Joss Whedon chose the latter, and chose to have it play out in the worst way possible for poor Billy.” But by closing on the suggestion that professional success is  equivalent to feeling nothing, Whedon, again, is being very Mannian. Diminish entanglements, keep yourself to yourself, wear your sunglasses at night, etc. When a Mann film ends on that note, we are to understand that this is just the way men are supposed to move about the planet. But that final note of Dr. Horrible has a characteristic Whedon angst to it, cleverly engineered to make his superfans insist that this is not the natural end of the story. And it probably isn’t. Sepinwall talked to Neil Patrick Harris at the TCA’s, and the Dr. Horrible star said Whedon definitely plans to extend the franchise. “Joss has some strange giant master plan that includes much more than a sequel…I think we’re all giggling like little schoolgirls for a week or so and then he’ll figure out what he wants to do next.” More from Sepinwall here; also, on the Dr. Horrible site, Whedon promises he’ll have more details at Comic-Con, so we’ll pass those along from San Diego as soon as we can.
