Mann Is God!

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2005)

This is THE definitive police and thief movie for the ages. Technically brilliant, visually beautiful and not to mention some flawless performances by Pacino, Deniro, Kilmer, Judd and Gang. the café scene between the 2 greats of acting is a classic example of simple and highly effective script work, combined with some wonderful ad lib by the 2 actors. The cinematography by Dante Spinotti deserves special mention. He somehow managed to convey the essence of the scenes with style. Kudos as well to the background score. It was there when needed and rightfully not there when the conversation or action took centrestage. All in all, this movie should belong to the list of movies which budding movie makers study and learn from. Its THAT good I tell you.
