Here’s a nice little off-topic matter that needs to be addressed. Which masterpiece from the 90’s is better?

This is the hardest question you will be asked all week.

How, exactly, is this “off topic”?

Heat no contest.

You need to go deep to top Heat. Maybe Goodfellas. Not Casino

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Best bank job.

Dark Knight a close second.

 

[BigFin]

That street shootout scene was the best I can recall.

Dark Knight a close second.

When that school bus fell into line with the others was absolutely ridiculous though.

The only thing that stood out on Heat was Pacino is a cartoon character when delivering half his lines.

Similar question....The Departed or the Town? Close for me, two of my favorites

Heat has the best scene. I think Casino is the better movie

Why ridiculous? It’s a movie.

As far as Pacino goes, he doesn’t play any character, other than himself in a different costume. He’s always just Pacino.

Like Elvis was always Elvis, just in different clothes.

He grew into that. He was playing Michael in the Godfather.

Strong character, strong Director strong story. He had no options. But yes, he was Michael.

I always felt Casino wanted to be Goodfellas and failed. I’ve never felt an overpowering urge to rewatch it.

 

[BigFin]

Maybe Casino would’ve been more highly regarded if Goodfellas never happened.

Every time I watch it I just root for somebody to murder Ginger.

Heat’s lack of annoying bitches is reason #1 why it’s far superior.

I think a lot of movies wanted to be Goodfellas and a lot of what was special about it back then really isn't anymore.
