Critic Reviews of "White Heat"
TIME MagazineApril 27, 2009Brilliantly 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.
Chicago ReaderApril 27, 2009Raoul Walsh's heroes had a knack for going too far, but none went further than James Cagney in this roaring 1949 gangster piece.
Time OutJanuary 26, 2006Despite chronology (deranged by the censor's influence on the studios), this is really the fitting climax of the '30s gangster movie.
New York TimesMay 20, 2003The 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.
Empire MagazineApril 27, 2009Magnificent examination of the criminal mind and Cagney's finest moment.
Laramie Movie ScopeOctober 09, 2008Cagney supercharges the entire film with frenetic energy.
DVDJournal.comApril 05, 2006Its 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....
Cinema em CenaNovember 22, 2005Cagney, 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.
EmanuelLevy.ComAugust 14, 2005Raoul 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").
Classic Film and TelevisionMay 28, 2005Film noir masterpiece, with brilliant direction and visual style
Combustible CelluloidMarch 21, 2005Cagney gives an utterly ferocious performance, arguably his finest, as Cody Jarrett, a psychotic gangster with an unholy mother fixation.
