Title: Cimino went ker-plunk
Review: Michael Cimino's "The Deer Hunter" and "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot" were both very great films, both succeeded in getting their point across. Unforunatelly, "Heaven's Gate" had no point to get across in the first place! The scenery? Beautiful! The cinematography? Beautiful! The characters? Hollow! The Plot? What plot? Cimino fell off the bandwagon. The ending was terrible too, that is for anyone who knew anything about the actual incident. In history: around two people were killed. In hollywood: It was a hell of a lot more than 2 people. The Deer Hunter is one of my favorite films, Cimino had talent when it came to that, but I don't know what he was thinking when he did this. I just have to speak for any Cimino fans that think this film will be a great, step back and keep that great appreciation you have for Cimino because this could destroy it! (I myself had to go back and watch "The Deer Hunter" quite a few times to get the appreciation back)
