Customer Reviews of Heat (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Al Pacino + Robert De Niro= Awesome movie! (4 1/2 stars) Heat is a masterpiece starring Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Val Kilmer, and Tom Sizemore. Al Pacino is a cop trying to nail De Niro and his gang of robbers who are robbing banks. Pacino and De Niro are absolutely brilliant with two powerhouse performances. It's a rare thing to see actors this good in 1 movie. That alone makes it worth watching but the movie itself is a classic. It has one of the best scenes of all time in which a bank robbery turns into an amazing shootout. Bullets fly everywhere and lots of cops die in this classic scene. The movie is very long actually but even though it seems very long at times, 90% of it flew by for me. The ending is good but what you will remember is that awesome shootout! <
>I'm giving it 4 1/2 stars because of its length!
I am just sorry I can't give 7 stars!
One of the best crime movies I have seen in a long time. Right up there with Good Fellas and the Godfather. A film that shows both sides of the conflict and does not glorify what is in fact a battle of wits with your personal life falling apart at the same time. This Film just shows what happens when you get a great story and let it ride. Couple it with an outstanding cast, great photography, direction, scene location and a just wonderful music backup & it can't help but kick butt. A job well done to all hands!

Crime Pays Dividends
For viewers of this two-disc DVD transfer of Michael Mann's taut cops-and-robbers film, crime pays splendid dividends. It's not just the classic pairing of Al Pacino as the relentless cop and Robert DeNiro as the dedicated robber. Aside from their contrasting acting styles, and that of a smart supporting cast, Mann's original screenplay is as focused on character as it is on a trio of high-tech heists. The cinematography, notably of Los Angeles in a co-starring role, and the tense score are state-of-the-art.

>"Heat" is not without cliche. There is the wife who whines about her heroic cop not spending time home with the kid (when was the last time you saw a supportive screen wife?) There is a bravura bank hold-up in which police provoke a bullet-spraying gunfight amid passers-by (when was the last time your PD risked this?) There is the suicidal adolescent (Natalie Portman, impressive even then), the psycho sex killer, and the bad guys with troubled hearts.

>But who cares how many times someone asks "hey, you all right?" when everyone else is so right? Pacino and DeNiro share little screen time (a traffic stop, a pungent conversation over coffee, a climactic shoot-out), but that's all they need, so effectively have they registered elsewhere; witness DeNiro confering with hood Jon Voight, caring for a wounded Val Kilmer and romancing Amy Brenneman, who is quite touching. It's a rare crime movie (apart from Scorcese's) that gets as exciting and all-encompassing as this.
