 ... together. It needed a solid script and a strong performing cast, but did it get one? Well first off, most critics feel the two stars cancelled eachother out, but for me it's not so complex; the plot is just crap. This really is a basic film, full of cliche that fails to allow the actors to give their best. Sadly, it's your average cop film complete with chase scenes and shoot-outs that are straight from the action 101 manual. The acting is good but not great. Neither star goes into much depth, and both performances a...more

Robert De Niro and Al Pacino are two of my all time favourite actors, so getting the chance too see them act alongside each other was an opportunity I was not going to miss out on. ----------------- Plot Outline ----------------- Al Pacino plays Vincent Hanna, a top L.A detective. Robert De Niro plays Neil McCauley, a cunning, professional thief. McCauley has pulled off many high-tech robberies with amazing success which has now grabbed the attention of top detective Vincent Hanna, whose obsession with his work is driven by no expense to his own private life. McCauley lives by one motto, which inevitably is the key to his success thus ...  Read the complete review

It has been a long time coming, and here we finally had the chance to see the two best ever actors at work on the same movie: Robert De Niro and Al Pacino starred alongside Val Kilmer in this crime thriller that followed a criminal and the cop who hunted him down. This film probably had more pressure on it going in than any other film. Both actors are equally brilliant, and here they were together. It needed a solid script and a strong performing cast, but did it get one? Well first off, most critics feel the two stars cancelled eachother out, but for me it's not so complex; the plot is just crap.

Vincent Hanna: You know, we are sitting here, you and I, like a couple of regular fellas. You do what you do, and I do what I gotta do. And now that we've been face to face, if I'm there and I gotta put you away, I won't like it. But I tell you, if it's between you and some poor bastard whose wife you're gonna turn into a widow, brother, you are going down. Neil McCauley: There is a flip side to that coin. What if you do got me boxed in and I gotta put you down? Cause no matter what, you will not get in my way. We've been face to face, yeah. But I will not hesitate. Not for a second. -THE MOVIE- When it comes to crime on the big screen there ...  Read the complete review

We all swooned at “Collateral”’s twinkling skyscrapers and fluorescent freeways, but “Heat” is Michael Mann’s most gushing LA love letter – a grimy genre flick glossed up to the status of grand urban opera. The director is often accused of trowelling on style-slap at the expense of soul and substance but that grump doesn’t apply here. “Heat” isn’t only his peerless lesson in how to make clusters of concrete and glass look beautiful, it’s also an eloquent study of loyalty, commitment and good guy/bad guy duality. Based on real-life characters relayed to Mann by Chicago cop buddies, Nail McCauley (Robert De Niro) is the fastidious chief of an armed ...  Read the complete review
