Guns And Coffee.
Michael Mann's Heat is one movie that brings to mind individual sequences every time I think about it. That doesn't mean it doesn't work as a cohesive story. But certain scenes stick in the mind.
One particular scene has Al Pacino as LAPD cop Vincent Hanna stopping bank robbery...

Heat: An Action Film That Shows Cops and Bad Guys
I truly love the movie Heat. Yes, it has been over fifteen years since its release, but Michael Mann should be proud of his work. This one is still a cult classic, and all you have to say is "Waingro" or "Slick," and others will "get it." That says something about legacy. There are a lot of movies... Read full review »

Just Too Much Violence
Los Angeles Police Lt. Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino) and Neil Macauley (Robert de Niro) are a lot like each other. Both are smart, both are tough, both are absolutely loyal to the members of their team -- and both make one crucial mistake in the course of this movie. For Hanna, the mistake... Read full review »

Rivals that of Scarface
Don't let the beginning throw you off, Heat is packed with suspense and left me on the edge of my seat the whole time. This is saying a lot because I don't like action films, but Al Pacino and Robert De Niro were great together and the story line was very gripping. In the middle of the movie, Al... Read full review »
How could this be anything less than a masterpiece?
It's a shame "Heat" is not the fantastic crime movie you'd expect it to be. It has so much potential to be an epic and exciting film, especially considering the all-star cast, the director and the premise. But the film is a bit too epic for its own good as it makes the common mistake of trying to... Read full review »
A Thinking Man?s Heist Movie
Obsessed, workaholic LA detective Al Pacino trails highly efficient, tight-knit robbers led by smart, detailed Robert De Niro, whose motto is; Never get involved in anything you can't walk away from in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat coming. Amy Brenneman (pre- "Judging Amy" ) is the naive... Read full review »
Director Michael Mann+Pacino+DeNiro=Epic Cop Drama
Michael Mann already had a lot of critical acclaim from the 80's hit series "Miami Vice" and more recentley the movies "The Insider" and "Collateral". In the middle of it, the core, is the strongest of them all...HEAT.
The plot when laid out on a small table, seems pretty basic, perhaps...

The Opposite of Camp
Heat is a very cool flick, precisely because it knows what it's doing. This is not a stupid actioner, with silly over-the-top characters shooting oversized guns between rabbit romps in the woods (with illiterate vixens dressed in daisy-duke shorts). It's an action-packed drama about cops and... Read full review »
In the "Heat" of the LA Night: Pacino's and De Niro's Magnum Epic
That I put off seeing director and writer Michael Mann's stylized epic 1995 cops 'n robbers film Heat for nine years is a crime for which I have no excuse. After reading this review, you'll have no excuse at all.
The film's graceful story arc, subtly textured ensemble performances, and a...

Hotter than July
If you know of another film as satisfyingly broad as Michael Mann's Heat, then please tell me now because since seeing it in the cinema I haven't found anything to touch it.
The premise is simple so I'll give it to you straight. There's a thief and his gang and there's a cop who wants to...

Clash of the (Acting) Titans
This is one of those movies where your expectation is built up beforehand to such an extent that when you actually see it, you are bound to be a little bit disappointed. But then, after a couple of days of thinking about what you saw, you begin to realise just how good it really was, and you look... Read full review »
In this corner... Pacino, and in this corner... DeNiro
A band of professional bank robbers try to stay one step ahead of the LAPD.
Michael Mann is one of my favorite directors. The style in which he films are unique to their class. Take Miami Vice for instance. Not the most realistic of cop shows, but it was a trend setter in style at that...

'Cops and Robbers' at its best.
An epic is defined as "a long narrative poem, on a grand scale, about the deeds of heroes and warriors." Though certainly not a poem, fans of this movie will see the poetry of director Michael Mann's breathtaking cinematography. How can one make Los Angeles so beautiful? I for one, having lived...

I Got Steam Heat
This week was, of course, New Years and it was just a tad too eventful for my taste. I was, of course, invited to a major gala function at the Beverly Hills Hotel where I had a few cocktails and traded decorating tips with Esther Williams (fond of tile) and Lauren Bacall. Margo Channing was also... Read full review »
Heat - Can you feel it?
I saw Heat a few months ago, and it was the movie that made me an Al Pacino fan. He and Robert De Niro both shine in this cops and robbers epic.
Though many plot elements are a retread of countless other films, Heat separates itself in that it is a unique character study of the...

Stay in the kitchen.
Heat is my favourite film of all time. It is a stunning feat of film-making that works on so many levels that I don't know where to start.
De Niro(crook) and Pacino(cop) turn in epic performances as obsessed perfectionists, in a cat and mouse power struggle on the streets of L.A. The...

Heat [VHS]
Having developed his skill as a master of contemporary crime drama, writer-director Michael Mann displayed every aspect of that mastery in this intelligent, character-driven thriller from 1995, which also marked the first onscreen pairing of Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. The two great actors had played father and son in the separate time periods of The Godfather, Part II, but this was the first film in which the pair appeared together, and although their only scene together is brief, it's the riveting fulcrum of this high-tech cops-and-robbers scenario. De Niro plays a master thief with highly skilled partners (Val Kilmer and Tom Sizemore) whose latest heist draws the attention of Pacino, playing a seasoned Los Angeles detective whose investigation reveals that cop and criminal lead similar lives. Both are so devoted to their professions that their personal lives are a disaster. Pacino's with a wife (Diane Venora) who cheats to avoid the reality of their desolate marriage; De Niro pays the price for a life with no outside connections; and Kilmer's wife (Ashley Judd) has all but given up hope that her husband will quit his criminal career. These are men obsessed, and as De Niro and Pacino know, they'll both do whatever's necessary to bring the other down. Mann's brilliant screenplay explores these personal obsessions and sacrifices with absorbing insight, and the tension mounts with some of the most riveting action sequences ever filmed--most notably a daylight siege that turns downtown Los Angeles into a virtual war zone of automatic gunfire. At nearly three hours, the film qualifies as a kind of intimate epic, certain to leave some viewers impatiently waiting for more action, but it's all part of Mann's compelling strategy. Heat is a true rarity: a crime thriller with equal measures of intense excitement and dramatic depth, giving De Niro and Pacino a prime showcase for their finely matched talents. --Jeff Shannon
