One of the best movies of the 90s...along with Goodfellas (barely 90s, though), Ed Wood (Burton's and Depp's best by far), Silence of the Lambs, Shawshank, Braveheart, Breakdown (VERY underrated), Tombstone and Gladiator ended the 90s nicely :)
I totally agree with their praise for Glengarry Glen Ross, but they definitely under-appreciated the timeless beauty of Last of the Mohicans....It is an extraordinary masterpiece.
I agree that Mohicans is a vastly underrated film. I believe it deserved a nomination as best picture of 1992. I like it so much more than Dances With Wolves.
Last if the Mohicans is great, but Glengarry Glen Ross is the best of these by a long way. I can always watch that movie for the acting performances and Baldwin’s speech.
One of my absolute favourite films ever. Michael Mann is one of America's great directors. I watched that film when I was eleven and for a long time it was my favourite film ever...until I saw Heat.
What's weird is that I can see why somebody would consider it an "all time fave," but I don't get it. It's pretty goddamn corny and 'meh?' in my book. I get what you're saying, though.
To me the final ten minutes are pretty much the most powerfull movie experience I have seen to date. Such great performances without a word being said.
Daniel Day Lewis is just on a whole other level of acting ability. Look at "Gangs of New York." Daniel really ends up, unintentionally, embarrassing DiCaprio and Diaz. They're performances were pretty good, but ended up looking silly, compared to "Bill, the Butcher." ...... "And that, my friends, is the 'minority vote.'"
He is a tremendous actor, though I feel that it where the others who stole the show in the last ten minutes, but this is good. He was not the focus there. Russel Means, Wes Studi, Jodhi May and Eric Schweig gave us such powerfull silent performances there. Madeleine Stowe's cry when her sister dies is also heartwrenching.
Willem Verheij The girl that plays the sister has such a telling look on her face. When her last drop of hope and will to live drops away, she stares at Wes Studi and it's just perfect. Then she jumps, Stowe screams, etc. It's cut together so well, and the build-up felt so worth it for that pay off.
..1992.. ahh feels like yesterday.. basic instinct, white men can't jump, batman returns, alien 3, under siege, candy man, a few good men, reservior dogs, forever young, hoffa, aladdin
Wow. I have not seen that intro sequence in probably 25 years... immediately brought back to 7 y/o me sitting on the living room floor with my parents.
last of the mohicans is a rather amazing film and with a much younger daniel day lewis the score in this film is rather beautiful the piece of the score that i seem to enjoy called "the gael" sounds like this film's take on the score from far and away, which both films have a very pretty flute instrumental up against other instruments
It's nice that some people have saved episodes of this show and uploaded them. S&E were tough but (mosty) fair, and I agreed with their criticisms more often than not.
...The love story that centers _The Last of the Mohicans_ is wonderful (it's not ~realistic~ of course, but we're in Big Epic Romance territory; what matters is well-acted chemistry, and these small grace notes that give the romance an emotional authenticity). I'll take TLotM over Titanic any day. And I absolutely agree with Siskel that the native characters in TLotM have a much more flesh-and-blood quality to them than in _Dances with Wolves_
Plus the romance in the movie gave us one of the most epic scenes in movie history. When Daniel Day Lewis saves Madeline stow and then the confrontation with magua all with "the kiss" playing in the background .
i love watching these old siskel and eberts and finding a long forgotten movie that looks interesting, like laws of gravity. also, wow young edie falco
Laws of Gravity - a glimpse at a very early Edie Falco! Nice on-the-point reviews of Glengarry Glen Ross. A movie that got a rather mixed reception at the time, but whose stature has grown tremendously, and deservedly, over the years.
I can't believe they don't like the love story in Last of the Mohicans! To me it's not cliched at all -- Mann and the actors make it feel fresh and passionate and believable. And they had fantastic chemistry. It's such a weird thing for both critics to spotlight when they have liked love stories with so much less depth and chemistry in the past. (I still love Gene and Roger, of course.)
" The Last Of The Mohicans" was a wonderful film ! I LOVED IT !! All through this story, I was totally involved, & in love with Madeleine Stowe!! -------Wolfsky9
you know what was one of the all-time great decisions in all of movie criticism? whoever's idea it was to begin - without fail - every regular episode of _Siskel & Ebert_ with an actual _clip from a movie._ that's genius-level thinking. after the hilariously terrible but endearingly lame intro, you go right into a clip from a brand new movie. you grab the audience's attention, you _don't_ over-inflate the critic(s) doing the talking. really, it's a brilliant strategy, and i think undervalued. it's one of the hallmarks of the show for me, and i only realized it now.
David Paymer was very good in Mr. Saturday Night. Plus Gene Siskel did predict Paymer was going to be nominated for a Best supporting actor nomination.
Ebert acknowledges this in his online review article, and even references the Mark Twain essay (a real comedy gem) making fun of the snapping twig trope invented by Cooper.
Michael Mann's films benefit from repeat viewings. Their tepid double thumbs up for Last of the Mohicans reveal a superficial understanding of the movie. We can all be prisoners of the moment, and hindsight sure helps, but sometimes you can tell they only watched the film once and didn't really give it the consideration it deserved. Mann staged the action sequences far better than they give credit for, and the brilliant score isn't mentioned. I love these guys, but they missed the mark sometimes, they were under deadline and had to crank this stuff out.
Yes, Ebert is right that these are desperately poor guys trying to eke out a living, but what they are selling is crap. They know they are selling crap, and even talk about how bad it is to each other. And it's very expensive crap, that will cost a life's saving, and return absolutely nothing on the investment. So while the poor salesmen make a commission, the buyers lose their future. Roger Ebert seems to have been unaffected by that part in this film, while Siskel empathized with the victims....
I think Glengarry Glen Ross was under-appreciated when it first came out. Name another movie when every single part in the movie is brilliantly acted and there is no leading actor. (12 Angry Men) Lemon, Pacino, Harris, Spacey, Baldwin, Arkin, Pryce, Altman were ALL deserving of an Oscar for Best SUpporting. But of course Hollywood only gave Pacino the nod, when they were right in the middle of comparing him to God. Baldwin was much more deserving for his "Coffee is for closures" monologue, one of the best in movie history... It's an amazing movie that's every bit as good as 12 Angry Men.
You can hear Lemmon drop the f bomb in the clip they use.....AND THEN....Ebert actually says the dialogue is full of so much foul language that it has to be bleeped..... :)
Not to be mean on Glengarry Glen Ross (because, I just watched it and I liked it). But I personally felt that this particular week (which was in either late September or early October of 1992) was a good week because of The Last of the Mohicans and Of Mice and Men (which S&E didn't review in this particular episode, but it did open the exact same day as Glengarry).
They blew it on the classic LAST OF THE MOHICANS... but, sometimes you have to see a classic several times before you begin to appreciate how much there is to it. There's a 3 part THE MAKING OF THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS on RUclips, which itself is very good.
Ebert: "Are you familiar with the vampire novels by Anne Rice set in New Orleans?" Siskle: "Basically no...no I am not." I don't know why I found that 3xchange so jarring...as if "Interview with a Vampire" has always been the cultural phenomenon it was about to become just a few years after this was filmed.
I always get a kick how often Ebert gets small plot points wrong (sometimes so wrong that it would affect his review adversely). In this case he says the Jack Lemmon character in GlenGarry GlenRoss has "his wife" in the hospital -- but it's his daughter, which is rather more poignant. Doesn't really make a big difference this time but, it's hard to understand how you could watch the movie and get this fact wrong.
Agreed. Also, I wish someone would post a compilation of the two of them misprouncing various actors/filmmakers names. I've done near spit-takes from time to time.
That's common of more than a few movie reviewers. When you have to watch three or four movies in a single day (which they don't do _every_ day, only sometimes), it's understandable that you'd get some plot details kinda scrambled in your head. There were a couple of reviews I remember, though (for _Halloween III_ and _Runaway_), where it really seemed like Roger needed to watch the movie again, and to pay attention this time, because he totally misunderstood the villains' motivations.
The scene in Last of the Mohicans they don't like where they are attacked from the woods is actually based in history after the surrender.... too bad they thought it was too familiar.
I have to stand with Ron Wylie (below) because it is a picture I can watch over and over. Each character seems perfectly drawn and portrayed. My favorite scene is with Alec Baldwin who comes in to add insult to injury. Instead of inspiring the dispirited lot of salesmen, he assails them. My second favorite scene is when Pacino goes full throttle after Kevin Spacey (after it is clear that he just killed Pacino's bonus). It's a remarkable film.
Dances with wolves hasn’t aged well except for that tragic ending for the tribe. Mohicans is masterpiece. And best soundtrack which has been ripped off by so many films
Only these two would argue about the level of praise they're giving to a movie they both like.

The soundtrack and cinematography for The Last of the Mohicans is breathtaking.
Saw recently on Netflx and still good today.
I would rather watch RUclips videos of these two and their wonderful banter than anything on mainstream network TV.

Perfectly stated comment.
Glengarry Glen Ross is definitely 10 thumbs up!
The Last of the Mohicans one of my favourites
What's weird is that I can see why somebody would consider it an "all time fave," but I don't get it. It's pretty goddamn corny and 'meh?' in my book. I get what you're saying, though.
To me the final ten minutes are pretty much the most powerfull movie experience I have seen to date. Such great performances without a word being said.

@@justincrediblefantasy8263 They did complain back then. 90's films were littered with feminists but they weren't the dogs you see in film today.
Ricardo Cantoral well, at least they kept making movies like basic instinct. They even made worse, (more provocative, the secretary)

This episode is a gem of an episode. A glimpse of the early 90s. A glimpse of what could have been.
Daniel Day-Lewis made 5 movies in 10 years...Oscar-nominated in all of them.
Jack Lemmon and Glenn Gary Ross was a great surprise
I read somewhere that the actors of Glen Garry referred to the film as "Death of a F*****g Salesman".
My pet lizard usually doesn’t react to music, but this show’s theme song makes him run in circles and roll over

It’s so much fun listening to these guys, even if you don’t agree with them.

In Glengarry Glen Ross Levine's Daughter is in the hospital, not his wife.
The intro is all about Siskel and Eberts awesomeness.
This is an amazing time capsule... I forgot Don Rickles was in Innocent Blood! :D

The Last of the Mohicans was not based on another film; it was based on the historical novel written by James Fenimore Cooper in 1826.
