“Hey Max... a guy gets on the MTA here in L.A. and dies... Think anybody will notice?”
One of the most exhilarating and suspenseful action films of all time boosted by the legendary direction of Michael Mann and his portrayal of the dark side of LA, which has never looked as good as in this movie. The nightclub scene will always be the unforgettable moment of this film, and whilst the action is not non-stop like other films mirroring this…
One of my favorite films of all time. There was non-stop thrill and suspense throughout the film navigating through the storyline and delving into Lou Bloom's sociophatic character.
Jake Gyllenhaal's performance was transcendent as he really represented the multiple characteristics of Lou Bloom's personality from his psychotic side to his more arrogant yet ambitious side, and did so humorously too at times.

Funnily enough, this was actually my favourite film of all time for many years before I joined this app and I was long overdue a rewatch. This had the blockbuster action you'd expect from movies in this vain along with being a provocative crime thriller.
The score and the extreme darkness of the film throughout were fitting given the breakdown of the ferocious criminal underworld this ended up being. Right from the offset, the opening scene set the tone for…
