the best action thriller crime movie of all time!

Rating: 10/10 (7 February 2007)

This 1995 Michael Mann film is, certainly, one of the best action movies ever and for no doubt my favorite alongside Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs.Even if for nowadays almost three hours of intense action may sound long, nothing is waisted here.The clash between De Niro and Pacino couldn't take place in a hour and a half average movie.What's extraordinary in this film is that one of my favorite actors, Val Kilmer, acts brilliant and what could seem impossible, to shine near De Niro and Pacino, he realizes.But the best thing about Heat(I know -a lot of superlatives...but it deserves)is how well the personal lives and each character life dramas are shown.In the average crime movies we can see a lot of shooting and that's all.Here, above the shooting, every character drama it's put in front.A definite 10/10
