Heat

Review: I normally don't go for the cops and robbers types of movies but this one is so well done that I had to make an exception. There is very little not to like about this movie. The story, the actors, the characters, the plot, and the acting are all...

Review: When Heat came out in 1995, I was immediately thrilled. The cast: Val Kilmer, Ashley Judd, Tom Sizemore, Tom Noonan, Wes Studi, Danny Trejo (the driver - his more notable rolls have included the TittyTwister's bartender in Dusk 'Till Dawn and the...

Review: If you are like me and have liked every Al Pacino movie you ever saw and asked for more, liked every Robert De Niro movie you ever saw and asked for more, and have liked Val Kilmer in many a performance, you are on the road-kill with this one.

Review: In this cops and robbers flick by Michael Mann (1995), Al Pacino shines as usual as he attempts to catch professional perpetrator Robert De Niro & company. HEAT is one of those must-see epics (calling it a mere action movie is like calling Jaws a...

Review: Okay all you really need to know is you got Al Pacino and Robert De Niro on the same screen as foes. That has never happened before these two where in only one other mive together but, they didn't share any scenes, The Godfather II also a cool...

The Bottom Line: Best film of the 90's. DeNiro's best performance. Visually orgasmic. Blows away nearly every other crime drama I've ever seen.

Review: Sitting down to watch this film, I was quite unprepared for what was about to occur. I thought it was just a jazzed up remake of his earlier LA Takedown film (which was damn good). Oh how wrong. With this film, Mann has created a true milestone in...

The Bottom Line: Great writting, charactor development and acting. Has the best gun fight scene ever. Plus, I liked it and I can not be wrong all the time... can I?

Review: Finally, two great tastes, that taste great together, in one powerful cookie. DeNiro and Pacino on screen with each other for the first time. I wonder who decided which role each would play? The roles are that of a cop (Pacino) and robber (DeNiro)...

The Bottom Line: Car driving stunts will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Review: This movie is exciting and although it is nearly three hours long, you?ll be wishing that it wouldn?t end. You?ll be amazed by the audacity and skill of the "bad guys." You?ll be puzzling over whether or not super-detective Al Pacino will crack the...

The Bottom Line: Great action film and good acting to boot. Especially noteworthy: Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro acting in the same scene together!

Review: "We?re sittin? here like a couple of regular fellows?you do what you do, and I do what I gotta do..."

...Those "couple of regular fellows" are Vincent Hanna (played by Al Pacino), a brilliant Detective Lieutenant with the Los Angeles...

Review: There is a man, a man whose name is Mann -- Michael Mann, who developed an idea, that turned into a movie, that inspired the casting of two of the greatest actors the world has ever seen, and put them face-to-face. The Mann, the idea, the movie:...
