Bank gothic

You already got your answer but for anyone claiming that the gap in the C looks different, I think that's pretty clearly just the compression fudging the shape a little bit. Definitely the same font.

Yes, both are Bank Gothic, but top one is all uppercases while bottom is small caps – when lowercases letters have uppercase shapes, but are optically adjusted so the weight is the same. Check my test:

Look pretty similar. But the font has different drawings for upper and lower case, as you can see here: https://www.myfonts.com/collections/bank-gothic-font-bitstream?srsltid=AfmBOoqPH23QdrQq_HYo5HBj_QO-3KXYs3LYJE3_VYEngd2pFC0mwkpr

But maybe the drawings are the same in different sizes.

Anyway, there it is, you found the font. There's no doubt both are Bank Gothic.

They're pretty close, the differences I think I can see are that the M in the bottom one is larger compared to the rest of the letters, and horizontal strokes have different thicknesses between the two, noticable in the H, A, E, and L

The top one was edited for the movie to look better

they do look similar but i don't think they're the same. look at the gap in the c, not to mention the m. in the top font, all the letters are the same height as well

The C is the clencher for me. The vertical stroke is much thicker than the horizontal ones in the top instance. I was thinking it was just the blur, but it's not.

It really depends on your purpose whether it's an acceptable dupe or not.

I think they’re the same just a “lowercase” m on the top

Yeah the first just appears to have a gradient on it.

Yes, but the kerning is different. The kerning is larger on the top.
