CRITICS OF "White Heat"

EmanuelLevy.Com

Raoul Walsh's Freudian film is one of the fastest and toughest crime-gangster films ever made, boasting a bravura performance from James Cagney as a misogynist mama boy ("top of the world, Ma").

August 14, 2005

Variety

Cagney has an excellent supporting cast.

April 27, 2009

Laramie Movie Scope

Cagney supercharges the entire film with frenetic energy.

Empire Magazine

Magnificent examination of the criminal mind and Cagney's finest moment.

Cinema em Cena

Cagney, intenso como de hábito, cria um personagem que, apesar de sua óbvia instabilidade psicológica e de sua crueldade patológica, conquista o espectador com sua carência emocional.

Its archetypal influence on later films like Goodfellas and the Al Pacino Scarface is striking, even if we can never again experience how new and bold it was back in its day....

Combustible Celluloid

Cagney gives an utterly ferocious performance, arguably his finest, as Cody Jarrett, a psychotic gangster with an unholy mother fixation.

Classic Film and Television

Film noir masterpiece, with brilliant direction and visual style

May 28, 2005

New York Times

The simple fact is that Mr. Cagney has made his return to a gangster role in one of the most explosive pictures that he or anyone has ever played.

May 20, 2003

TIME Magazine

Brilliantly directed by Raoul Walsh, an old master of cinema hoodlumism, it returns a more subtle James Cagney to the kind of thug role that made him famous.

April 27, 2009

Resource

Chicago Reader

Raoul Walsh's heroes had a knack for going too far, but none went further than James Cagney in this roaring 1949 gangster piece.

Time Out

Despite chronology (deranged by the censor's influence on the studios), this is really the fitting climax of the '30s gangster movie.
