Profile of Heat

The mood of Heat is atmospheric, exciting, and suspenseful. The plot centers around a master criminal, a police detective, and law enforcement. It is a thriller, crime, and action movie. Stylistically, Heat features an all-star cast and is neo-noir. In approach, it is serious and realistic. It takes place, at least partly, in an urban environment. Heat is set in Los Angeles. It happens in the 1990s. It is a remake. Heat is known for being a modern classic, a blockbuster, and critically acclaimed. It is especially suggested for a boys' night. Note that it includes profanity and violent content.

Summary of Heat

Robert De Niro and Al Pacino are finally together on screen in this riveting story about an intense rivalry between expert thief Neil McCauley (De Niro) and volatile cop Vincent Hanna (Pacino). McCauley will stop at nothing to do what he does best and neither will Hanna, even though it means destroying everything around them, including the people they love. With a solid supporting cast that includes Val Kilmer, Jon Voight, Ashley Judd, and Natalie Portman, Heat is a truly epic crime story.

Critics Reviews

USA Today
Heat is in the cop-movie pantheon with Akira Kurosawa's "High and Low," and that's as "right" as the genre gets.
TV Guide
It didn't sound like fun to us, either, but we were wrong; Heat scores on many fronts...The plot, though it seems to ramble, builds suspense with deft precision, and the action set pieces are triumphs.

Users Reviews

HOT for the time.
Dear readers, This has got to be one of the greatest... crime...action... movie of all time! Seriously... if you haven't watched this, DO IT! This film is like a chess game in action. With guns and people shooting and stuff! Must WATCH MOVIE!...
One of the all time great movies. Violent? Yes, but with superb direction and special effects. HEAT has excellent acting throughout. In this movie you will see at least twenty actors who go on after HEAT to have great careers. The scene with De Niro...
