'The Gray Man,' which premiered in theatres on July 15, was ultimately released on Netflix on July 22. Its trailer alone promises not just hours of riveting action, but also distinct performances from newly-paired Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, who will battle as an elite mercenary and a sadistic villain, respectively. Meanwhile, here are other movies that are most comparable to ‘The Gray Man’ in terms of narrative and/or aesthetic. Also read: The Gray Man: Ana de Armas' Dani Miranda is a bossgirl in testosterone fest,Heat (1995),In ‘Heat,’ the soon-to-retire criminal genius Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro) is pursued by the veteran Lieutenant Hanna (Al Pacino), and the two men are thrust into a perilous game of cat-and-mouse, similar to Court Gentry and Lloyd Hanson in ‘The Gray Man.’,At the time of ‘Heat's debut, De Niro and Pacino were already well-known performers who had successfully depicted characters in mutually respectful, intimate relationships who were also cast as enemies. This unusual action film combo serves as an intriguing forerunner to the tangled relationship portrayed by Gosling and Evans. Also read: The Gray Man movie review: Rogue CIA asset in Europe; seen that before,Drive (2011),Viewers who intended to see ‘The Gray Man’ to see Ryan Gosling in a serious, gritty part will undoubtedly be satisfied with ‘Drive.’ This thriller follows Driver, a Hollywood stuntman and getaway driver who becomes entangled in a violent robbery after his neighbor's spouse is released from prison. ‘Drive’ employs stunning sights and colour palettes to create a film that is both exhilarating and creative. Gosling's performance, as one of his first action parts, also contributes to the film's originality, demonstrating his great range and depth as an actor and proving he's ready for ‘The Gray Man.’,Also read: Gray Man movie budget: How much did Netflix's most expensive film cost?,The Bourne Identity (2002),Characters such as Jason Bourne have laid the groundwork for a genre that 'The Gray Man' appreciates. In ‘The Bourne Identity,’ a federal agent (Matt Damon) is left wondering about his own identity following a near-death incident that leaves him with amnesia and forces him to battle for his life while being pursued by assassins. One of the many reasons ‘The Bourne Identity’ is an action classic is its inventive plot, which combines implausible circumstances with genuine, relatable human reactions. It feels plausible while also fascinating. ‘The Bourne Identity’ is particularly famous for its memorable dialogue, which is still quoted today. Also read: 'The Gray Man' ending explained,In the Line of Fire (1993),Clint Eastwood stars as a Secret Service agent who failed to defend President John F. Kennedy from assassination in the political action thriller ‘In the Line of Fire.’ Years later, he is confronted by an ex-CIA agent (John Malkovich) who threatens the new president with the same fate. ‘In the Line of Fire’ weaves historical facts into a gripping story full of twists and turns. Its intriguing psychological antagonist produces a satisfying struggle with a hero played by Eastwood, an actor well-known for playing classic protagonists. Also read: The Gray Man movie: Ryan Gosling's Sierra Six name explained,Extraction (2020),Though its subject and setting are not comparable with ‘The Gray Man,’ ‘Extraction’ is an excellent film for anyone who wants to become acquainted with the Russo Brothers, who were engaged in its story. ‘Extraction’ follows a gritty, black-market mercenary on a quest to save the son of an Indian drug boss. ‘Extraction's excellent action sequences should be plenty to entice anyone looking for their next Netflix action film, and those who appreciate it will be pleased to learn that its sequel is one of many upcoming Russo Brothers films. Its popularity is partly based on the profound, emotional role played by primary star Chris Hemsworth, who, like Evans, is branching out from his MCU heritage to explore characters outside of the superhero genre.

By Deepan Joshi,Released in 1972 'The Godfather' sits at number 2 with a rating of 9.2 in the all time top movies on IMDB with 1994 released 'The Shawshank Redemption' at 9.3 above it. 'The Godfather' has an ensemble cast with every part fitting like a custom-made glove. Marlon Brando plays Don Corleone, the patriarch of the Corleone family that has three sons and a daughter. Al Pacino plays the youngest son Micheal Corleone, who inadvertently takes on the mantle as the head of the family from his ageing father. Robert Duvall stars as Tom Hagen, the family’s consiglieri and Diane Keaton as Kay Adams is cast as Micheal’s wife. Also Read: Effortlessly talented: Celebs pay tribute to 'Godfather' actor James Caan,The toughest role as the seething, muscular, and volatile eldest son came to James Caan and he set the screen on fire with a once in a lifetime kind of performance. Even the family’s caporegimes (Clemenza and Tessio, who head their own group of the muscle end of the family) are seen telling Sonny to cool down. The sister Connie is seen begging Sonny not to harm her husband Carlo when he sees that she has bruises. Hagen is constantly at odds with Sonny while trying to prevent an all-out war once Don Corleone has been shot and is recovering in a hospital. Sonny though is a force of nature, impossible to reason with from the first scene onwards with only his father having the upper hand with him. Also Read: James Caan dead at 82: All about his wife, children and net worth,Francis Ford Coppola’s brief and Caan’s instincts must have been completely aligned as Sonny’s emotional side, his warmth within the outward violence, is apparent in the film. Sample this dialogue after Micheal introduces Tom Hagen as his brother to his girlfriend Kay as the film opens with Connie Corleone’s wedding reception. “Kay: If he's your brother, why does he have a different name? Micheal: Oh, ah, that...when my brother Sonny was a kid, he found Tom Hagen in the street. And he had no home and so my father took him in – and he's been with us ever since. He's a good lawyer. Not a Sicilian, but I think he's gonna be consiglieri. Kay: What's that? Micheal: That's um, like a counselor...an advisor...very important to the family.”,Also Read: From Godfather to Elf: Top 5 films of James Caan,Unlike the Mario Puzo novel the film never spells out that it was only Sonny who accepted Tom as a real brother though it makes up for the fact through the intuitive cinematography. Everyone is polite and nice to Tom and Micheal with the support of his father becomes cold when he has to. Sonny and Tom’s exchanges are full of heat throughout. Sonny invariably hits below the belt but the only ‘Sorry’ from his lips in the entire film is also extended to Tom. “Sonny: Well, then, there ain't no more stalemate. I'm gonna end it by killin' that old bastard! I'm gonna... kill...Tom: Yeah, well you're getting a great reputation! I hope you're enjoying it... Sonny: Well you just do what I tell you to do! Goddamn it! If I had a wartime consiglieri...a Sicilian...I wouldn't be in this shape! Pop had Genco, look what I got. (after exhaling) I'm sorry, I didn't mean that.

In a runtime of 2 hours and 58 minutes, Sonny meets his demise at around 1 hour and 58 minutes and it is the only death amid dozens and dozens in the film where sorrow is explored. Sonny’s shadow refuses to leave the last hour or even the last minutes. Famous dialogue after the heads of the five families of New York are taken care of: “You have to answer for Santino…”,The 1940 born James Caan who died earlier this week at 82 would have been at the peak of his prowess shooting for the film while being in his early-thirties. Caan’s only Oscar nomination came for the portrayal of Sonny Corleone though many would not remember who won that year. Viewer’s choice: Caan could well be in the running for the best supporting actor of all time.

Death

Shuvrajit Das Biswas

New York, NY, USA

Al Pacino and Robert De Niro starred in Michael Mann's 1995 movie, 'Heat'. Speaking at United Palace Theatre in Manhattan’s Washington Heights, Pacino mused on who could play Lt Hanna's role in a potential sequel. ,Timothée Chalamet, the 82-year-old said on Friday, as per Variety, adding, I mean, he’s a wonderful actor. Great looks. 'Heat' saw Hanna, the obsessive detective, hot on the trail of De Niro's Neil McCauley, the master criminal. The film is marked by many memorable moments, including a conversation between the two at a diner, where McCauley explains his life's philosophy which always offers him a quick exit. ,Also Read | 'The Chosen One' crew Mexico car accident: All you need to know,Mann, the writer-director, has now come up with a continuation of the crime epic, which releases on August 9. 'Heat 2', the novel, will trace McCauley and Hanna's lives after the events of the film. ,The discussion about 'Heat' took place at the Tribeca Film Festival, which commemorated the 25th anniversary of the movie, organizing a Q&A panel with De Niro, Pacino, and longtime producer Art Linson. ,Also Read | The diplomat and the agitator: How Lennon-McCartney duo broke 'the lone genius' myth,During the course of the interview, it became clear that a lot of gravitas shown by the two masters of the craft came from pure instinct. Speaking about the diner scenes, De Niro said Al and I didn’t rehearse the scene, adding, We just thought it was better just to do it. ,The scene marks the first instance in cinematic history that the two actors share screen space, the next coming in the 2008 film 'Righteous Kill', which of course, was nowhere as memorable.

Alfredo James Al Pacino, the personification of a Hollywood legend, was born in New York City, on April 25, 1940. He began his career as a film actor in the 1970s, with the hugely popular mafia epic ‘The Godfather’. Since then, he has been celebrated for his exemplary prowess in playing contemplative and wrathful characters. In his nearly 50-year career, Pacino has given a number of seminal performances that have enchanted fans and aspiring actors alike. The 82-year-old method actor, who is one Grammy shy of an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony), has rendered his own unique touch to some of cinema's most illustrious characters. Without a doubt, he is one of those rare acting legends who arise only once in a generation. ,This birthday let’s take a look at some of his most celebrated performances. Also read: Kris Jenner says Blac Chyna tried to murder her son Rob Kardashian in 2016,The Godfather Trilogy,It's unfathomable to picture 'The Godfather' without Al Pacino. Then again, why not? After all, Al Pacino is to The Godfather what The Godfather is to Al Pacino. The actor who played Michael Corleone, the son of a gangster, was nearly inconspicuous for the first half of the film. Until he finally takes stand, assuming control of the Corleone crime enterprise and, with it, the film. He was nominated twice for the 'Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor' for his portrayal of the character, and rightfully so. Plus, there's more. The actor was a member of an ensemble cast. Yes, you read that right. For the uninitiated, standing out among an ensemble cast is quite a feat for someone who started out as a struggling actor with only one film under his belt, before the Godfather. Our favourite line from this saga has to be, “Never hate your enemies. It affects your judgment.”,Also read: Britney Spears slams ex-husband Kevin Federline in a now deleted online post,Scarface,With this 1983 thriller, Pacino once again embodied the kind of high-intensity role that had made him famous. He portrayed Tony Montana, a Cuban refugee who shot to the top of Miami’s drug underworld. In fact, this is yet another iconic role like Michael Corleone. Pit one against the other and it would be tough to choose a winner. Everything about him, from his accent to his arrogance to his ruthlessness (he killed 42 people in the film), his vulnerability as a drug addict to his flamboyance, did a number on viewers' hearts, rendering the movie a cult classic. The only thing in the world that gives commands is balls, is our favourite line from this movie. Not very classy, but true to Pacino’s character. Also read: Depp on drinking, at Amber Heard trial: it’s what you define as heavily,Carlito’s Way,Brian De Palma and Al Pacino reunited for this mobster film after their successful collaboration in 'Scarface'. This Latin mafioso film is quite unlike 'The Godfather Trilogy' or 'Scarface'. In 'The Godfather', Pacino was shown to be a good man who later turned bad because of circumstances. Scarface portrayed a character who was violent and evil through and through, who was drawn to crime like a moth to a flame. In 'Carlito's Way', Pacino portrays a reformed gangster who, despite his best attempts, can't seem to leave his criminal past behind. This tale of redemption and tragic romance made ladies swoon over Pacino, once again. Our favourite line from this movie has to be, “Favor gonna kill you faster than a bullet.” Cutting and true even in the real world. Also read: Alec Baldwin's Rust fined for 'willful' safety violations over Halyna Hutchins death,And Justice for All,When you say 'Pacino' and 'courtroom', you instinctively think of his Oscar-winning performance in 'Scent of a Woman' (hoo-ah!). Pacino did not assume the role of a mob boss in the film, which was unfortunate or perhaps a pleasant surprise. In this neo noir courtroom drama, Pacino played Arthur Kirkland, a defense attorney fighting against a Judge accused of brutal sexual assault. Did you know that the actor rewrote the film's climax, which is also its most outstanding scene? For realism, the film, which took cues from real-life lawyers, had several moments that didn't entirely reflect reality. That's when Pacino revised the dialogues, and while the film did not proceed with that version, Pacino did play up the scene's theatricality. His line from the scene, You're out of order! became phenomenal, and people would remember it for the rest of their lives. If it wasn’t already evident, our favourite line from this movie is, “You’re out of order!”,Also read: 'Thor: Love and Thunder' teaser amasses 209 million views in a day,Serpico,Al Pacino portrays Frank Serpico, a cop who harbours disdain for his fellow cops who pursue the other side of the law. The film which is based on a real-life police officer of the same name, follows Serpico as he goes through the arduous process of blowing the whistle on officials abusing their badges. Pacino's ability to dominate a crowd with his sonorous yet powerful voice has become a defining characteristic of his career. But the part where he snaps around to yell Stay the f*** outta here to a corrupt cop is as riveting as they get. For his work in this movie, Pacino received his second Oscar nomination and his first 'Golden Globe'. Our favourite line from this movie is, “The fight for justice against corruption is never easy. It never has been and never will be. It exacts a toll on our self, our families, our friends, and especially our children. In the end, I believe, as in my case, the price we pay is well worth holding on to our dignity.”,Also read: Actor Cuba Gooding Jr pleads guilty to sexual misconduct,Pacino has starred in a number of films in the past. In fact, his portrayal of an irate, blind, retired veteran Lt. Col. Frank Slade in 'Scent of a Woman' earned him his first and only Oscar. 'Dog Day Afternoon', 'Heat', 'Donnie Brasco', 'The Irishman', 'Any Given Sunday', 'Insomnia', 'Glengarry Glen Ross', and 'The Panic in Needle Park' are some of his other masterpieces that you can fawn over, time and again.
