An L.A. cop (Al Pacino) becomes fixated on a deadly thief (Robert Dinero) and his crew ( Val Kilmer & Jon Voight) who are taking Los Angeles to the cleaners. This movie includes one of the most spectacular shoot outs in film history as Dinero and Kilmer rip through downtown Los Angeles with both guns blazing.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 085391163169 Manufacturer No: 116316

Have been trying to get this movie for some time. Great value and got it fast. Husband was very happy

Masterful MovieMaking, perfect Acting

It's an adventure into the world of high-end criminals. You see the human frailties of the detectives, the criminals and the people supporting them. You can watch it over & over and stay riveted.

Heat is truly epic

The coffee shop scene tells everything about this film. The human side of the characters is perfectly explored, especially concerning De Niro's character (Neil). His personal conflicts are as strong as his determination and skills as a gangster. This is the magic of this film and only two fantastic actors like Pacino and De Niro could represent it so totally. Congratulations to Val Kilmer that shined and performed exceptionally well under the huge shadow of Pacino and De Niro. "Heat" carries with it the moral values so many of us take for granted. Although much in the film is morally ambiguous, one may find that even when all your life you've lived on the other side of the law, you can still settle down and have a heart-to-heart. When I first saw this movie I was sure it would be another violent crime movie that I would never want to see again. I have since seen it 4 times and have this DVD of my own. The thrilling sequences and brilliant camera-work have you glued to the screen. The exceptional cast of characters has you wondering "who could be so lucky to work with them?". From the opening scene to the thrilling final scenes and everything in between (including the climax) "Heat" grabs you and pulls you in. This is a true film masterpiece. A must see !

Best Mann movie

Heat is a rare masterpiece. Mann tells his stories in such a unique and captivating manner. Heat is a movie with a somewhat implausible storyline, that is told with incredible realism. Every event in this movie is shown with such detail and with such a realistic, "in your face" feel, that every one of it's 3 hrs is intriguing. Maybe this is just one of those movies that only select few are going to enjoy, but I think it's incredible, with excellent performances by Pacino, de Niro, and a young Portman. (alright, her performance isn't anything special, but she is.) Each actor shows us a unique and believable individual, which is what should happen. At the very least, the shootout in L.A. is one of the best of it's kind in any movie, at least that I've seen. These are my thoughts on one of the best movies ever made.

pretty good gangster melodrama

While there is nothing original or fascinating about this film, it is very good for passing the time, in particular the action is far better than average. I enjoyed the masterful professional thieves, their self-imposed discipline of leaving in 30 seconds, and their physicality in violence. The subtheme of good/bad guy resembling eachother is also fun, particularly the Pacino/Niro meeting and open conversation. It is much better than average.

But what can you say about the plot? A heist, maybe the big one, is coming. Get em or get away with it. Then there are the girls, the anchor we all seek. In an obsessed life, there is little room for love, except as castoff entertainment or broken promises. Fine, but does it rise above that kind of formula? No, in my view.

Recommended, but not as a film I would love to watch again and again and again. It is well worth a viewing, perhaps, but alas will not join the classics by any stretch of the imagination.
