The A To Z Of Michael Mann Public Enemies sees the return of Michael Mann with a typically stylish and finely-detailed gangster epic . To mark its release we've embarked an alphabetic jaunt through the tropes and traits that make him one of cinema's true auteurs. Welcome to Mikepedia.
Crime pays… for a bit; then you get shot. That’s the recurring lesson for the thieves, heistmen, killers and dealers who populate Mann’s movies. “We’re all going to the same place,” the director explains. “I’m most interested in the people who are actually aware of it.” Mann’s fascination with the criminal underworld dates back to his time scripting Starsky And Hutch in the mid ‘70s, developing through his documentary mini-series, Drug Wars, and Emmy-winning TV movie The Jericho Mile, and it’s been a theme throughout his feature-making career. There’s specialist crime (Thief, Heat, Collateral and Dillinger), white-collar crime (The Insider), blue-collar crime (Manhunter) and crime with a lot of dudes shooting at each other (Miami Vice) but the message stays the same: if you’re not prepared to face the worst, start selling barbecues.

Not a big fan of the Mann, whilst Heat, Collateral, The Insider & Manhunter are all great, Ali, Miami Vice (whichis a terrible, terrible movie) and Public Enemies really aren't all that, they are slow, dull and unfufilling. All well made, but just not all that great. Read More
