Review of Bringing Out the Dead (1999) by Ben E — 22 Feb 2010
Fantastic. After reading some mixed reviews for this I wasn't sure how much I'd like it. But I was in for a treat, this has to be one of the best dark comedies I've ever seen. If I could make a movie with a budget like this, It look just like this.
The style is perfect. The music is perfect, the great camera work and the frenetic lighting. This is definitely one of Nick Cage's best performances, there are few but this is one of them. What shines through are the characters because John Goodman, Ving Rhames and Tom Sizemore manage to steal scenes.
And I was surprised as to how good Marc Anthony was. I was engrossed every minute of it. This is a masterpiece.
