Sailor: Coming on the heels of Batman, Dick Tracy is an equally stylized comic book film that doesn’t get enough credit for helping create the visual template for genre going forward. Check back for our Dick Tracy FanCast post this Monday! Sailor: Oh, it’s time for the big reveal!ĭouble Impact! has decided to turn this into its own feature. Kane: Big Boy even got the Joker send-off. Sailor: I wonder who the Faceless guy is? It’s been on the tip of my tongue the whole movie. Kane: William Forsythe as Flattop is great. Sailor: This is what action-packed used to be. Sailor: This was definitely after because Beatty wanted Elfman based on his Batman score. Kane: I wonder how close these two were to being made. Kane: I do have to point out this feels like 89 Batman. Kane: Our Dick Tracy remake needs to be more like John Wick. Kane: It’s because the love story kicked in. Kane: Man, is it just me or did this movie start dragging a bit? Kane: Is that Robert Duvall or the principal from Back to the Future? Kane: There ain’t movie stars like this anymore. Sailor: I have to something while Madonna is on screen or my pants are coming off! Kane: We ain’t doing that right now, remember! Sailor: I have someone in mind for Breathless. I think the studio made him add him because Disney wanted a kid. I’m almost positive he’s not in the comic strips and if he is, he’s not a major part. Sailor: That’s 97 years old Dick Van Dyke. It’s one reason I don’t like old movies sometimes. Sailor: But it fits the tone of the film. Sailor: I think Glenne Headly is fantastic in this. Kane: You mean like calling her a butter face? That’s not PC. Sailor: I would do things to her that aren’t PC. Kane: Is Madonna one of the hottest ugly chicks? Sailor: You can see her nips through that! And this is a Disney movie. Sailor: Where did this one phone after being arrested bull shit come from? Because let me tell you, that ain’t real. He’s another one that never appealed to me. This probably my favorite Hoffman performance too. Sailor: Did you know Benicio Del Toro based his performance in Usual Suspects on Hoffman in this. Kane: The movie would have exploded if he were in it. Sailor: How many movie stars does this movie have? Kane: The kid is the worst thing about this movie. Sailor: Rourke should have been nominated for that performance. Sailor: He looks like a less ugly Marv from Sin City. Kane: Was Tracy weird looking in the comics? Sailor: Oh and if you’re wondering why Beatty isn’t in makeup, the studio wouldn’t allow him to be. Sailor: This has to be one of the greatest all-star casts of all-time. Sailor: I think he’s amazing in Bonnie and Clyde. Sailor: They need to make a comeback but laziness. Kane: I remember watching as a kid and not knowing who half these people were because of the makeup. Sailor: Slightly similar score but still great. Sailor: You can always tell a Danny Elfman score. This movie came out in 1990 so have the HBO Signature from 1990. Kane: You know the little HBO signature duh duh duh thingy before the movie starts? Kane: I really wish HBOMax would have the HBO signature be the same as the year the movie came out. Tracy also begins fostering a young street urchin named Kid. Dick Tracy depicts the detective’s romantic relationships with Breathless Mahoney and Tess Trueheart, as well as his conflicts with crime boss Alphonse “Big Boy” Caprice and his henchmen. Warren Beatty produced, directed, and starred in the film, whose supporting cast includes Al Pacino, Madonna, Glenne Headly, and Charlie Korsmo. This is Double Impact!ĭick Tracy is a 1990 American action crime film based on the 1930s comic strip character of the same name created by Chester Gould. This is a celebration of the stuff we love and a takedown of the shit we don’t. The goal is to get you to rewatch old films you love, check out great stuff you haven’t and skip the overrated classics you’ve heard about but never got around to. Through our convoluted thought process, neither one of us truly understands, we will definitively determine whether or not certain sacred cows are worthy of praise and alternatively if childhood favorites hold up or are better left in the past. From the cinephiliac minds of Sailor Monsoon and Vincent Kane comes a new collaborative review series called Double Impact! For these opinion pieces, we watch a film, break it down and analyze it, and then for the hell of it, we like to pick a new cast if we were going to remake the film today.
