The Untouchables

3/4 stars

While the script could be better, this movie sees virtuoso performances from Connery, De Niro, director De Palma and composer Ennio Morricone. A long time favorite of mine.

Heat

4/4 stars

This movie epitomizes everything that's great about Michael Mann's technique, and pairs it with a script that's epic in its handling of the internal lives of so many interconnected characters. The acting and cinematography are also amazing. A masterpiece.

An excellent combination of the classic with a modern style and psychological approach. Very well made.
