Grumpier Old Men - (Deutch;1995;USA) - ** More antics ensue when an Italian woman turns the local bait shop into a restaurant. I absolutely love these movies, but in the end it isn't anything special. A nice little comedy.
Anyway, I saw the trailer for the new Sandlot and I am absolutely disgusted. They even got a look alike fat kid for the wiseguy red-head. They also spoof some of the famous lines from the original. Assholes.
Anyway, I used to think Heat was better and hell I used to think Collateral was better, but I changed because I realized that The Insider is an amazing work, that does keep you attached without any violence or sex. Sure, it is a little long, but fascinating all the same. I rate Mann's films like this. However I can see your point, both are excellent works. I hope Mann makes more Neo-Noir films like Collateral and such.
1) The Insider - **** 2) Heat - **** 3) Collateral - ***1/2 4) Ali - **1/2
