To me one of the best action crime saga masterpiece movie of the 90's by Michael Mann. I love this movie to death! It is my personal favorite action movie of all time. To me this is one of the best movies of all time!!!! You have great cast: Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Val Kilmer, Tom Sizemore, Diane Venora, Amy Brenneman, Dennis Haysbert, Danny Trejo, Ashley Judd, Mykelti Williamson, Kevin Gage, Wes Studi, Ted Levine, William Fichtner, Natalie Portman, Tom Noonan, Jon Voight and Jerry Trimble. You have two great actors square off at each other Al Pacino and Robert De Niro. Heat (1995) is a great film, it is a kick-ass action crime drama movie. It is a great crime EPIC drama has action and thriller elements.

The movie is 3 hrs long, but is not boring goes fast around. Heat is a remake by Mann of an unproduced television series he had worked on, the pilot of which was released as the TV movie L.A. Takedown in 1989. I saw L.A. Takedown on VHS played by actor Scott Plank in the role as Vincent Hanna. Sadly Scott Plank past away in 2002 and he is no longer with us anymore. He was in Melrose Place Season 5 and 6. The actor is really missed. In my opinion Heat is much better movie than L.A. Takedown with a better cast. Great story, great plot.

A brilliant L.A. cop (Al Pacino) following the trail a deadly armed roberry to a crew headed by an equally briliant master thief (Robert De Niro). Al Pacino has this crew: Mykelti Williamson, Wes Studi, Ted Levine and Jerry Trimble. Robert De Niro has his crew: Val Kilmer, Tom Sizemore, Kevin Gage, Danny Trejo, Jon Voight and Tom Noonan. Great cast of actors that i know.

Michael Mann is one of the greatest directors ever. I did not like Miami Vice movie, I loved the series. In this movie it is a cop looking for a criminal. I love Collateral (2004) I have not seen that film in a long time, but I love it. Manhunter I enjoy I would say it is better than Red Dragon. I love Heat to death I love that Michael Mann produced Miami Vice (1984 -1989) one of my favorite TV shows. My favorite Michael Mann movies are Heat and Collateral they are my favorite movies of all time. Collateral I watched during my sophmore year on DVD with my friends. I have both of the movies on Blu-ray discs. This is a heist movie it belongs there with Point Break (1991) one of the best heist movies of all time I love and enjoy both of the version movies. Heat to me is much better than Point Break, much better executed.

I love Lt. Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino) LAPD robbery-homicide detective he was a great character cop. Al Pacino's best performance for me. I love the character, he saved daughter of his girlfriend when she slit her wrist. I love his line because She Has a Great Ass!!! Or Don't waste my time! I love his vision, he was a tough marine. He take down McCauley's crew. He killed and shot two members of the crew. I prefer Al Pacino's character more than Robert De Niro's character. I always rooted for the good guys I have rooted for Vincent Hanna beacuse he is a good guy I am always be the good guy the boy scout. I love how Hanna was huging this mom when her daugther was killed by Weingro (Gage). It is great acting performance from Al Pacino.

I love Robert De Niro's performance a professional thief Neil McCauley. He was smart, intelligent, high profile criminal with no criminal record. He was the mastermind behind the robberies, he knew what he was doing. He was a murderer and he did what he know best. I love De Niro's acting performance I don't root for him but I love De Niro in this movie and this film to death!!!

I love Kevin Gage as Weingro I love his character I love actor Kevin Gage. I read on trivia that he went in prison in 2003 and most of his inmates called him Weingro he was respected in prison. I love Val Kilmer his best performance. Ashley Judd was great. Jon Voight is in here as De Niro's acomplice. Jerry Trimble was also cast in this movie as one of the detectives in Hanna's team. Tom Noonan has a little scene in here, with a beared he was helping McCauley. Reminds on my dad with that beard ha ha. Tom Sizemore's best performance as Micheal Cherito I love his character.

I love the shootut bank robbery heist. Lt. Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino) pulls out an FN FNC-80 assault rifle during the shootout on Flower Street, and uses it to kill Cheritto when Cheritto - who is firing at Drucker and several other cops - grabs a little girl as a human shield. I love when McCauley's crew a firing on cops you see Hanna and McCauley firing at each other. Shiherlis (Val Kilmer) fires at cops, Val Kilmer's reload was so fast and smooth that this clip was used in U.S. Marine Corps training videos, to show new recruits how it should be done in combat. I love the shootout it is my favorite action scene. I love the finale Vincent Hanna chases down McCauley with a shootgun on the tarmac at LAX. They shoot eachother with their guns but Hanna sees McCauley's shadow and shoots him. I love the finale.I love the music score by Elliot Goldenthal great score well done.

I really love the bank heist to me it was realistic it was no fantasy. The acting the story it was realistic. It is how is normal life and I just really miss 90's movies like how they are done. Heat (1995) deserves to be called a mesterpiece on the best action crime drama movie sof all time. I like the love story between McCauley and Amy Brenneman as Eady I think the actress did great.

Heat (1995) to me is one of the best kick-ass action movie sof all time, it is my personale favorite action film of all time with Point Break (1991). It is a great film, it is entertaning. This movie deserves an oscar they both deserves an oscar. To me it is better than all Three Godfathter movies. God Moving Over The Face Of The Waters by Moby is a great music song, great look, solid performances it is a cop and criminal movie that is wonderful done.
