unforgettable

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2013)

i'll say one thing about e climax scene of this film to indicate to you how powerful it was. I WATCHED THE CLIMAX FIVE TIMES. Five. In a row. and i could feel my eyes were wet. HUGE credits to e background score at that moment. michael mann reminds us that between two powerful individuals on either side of Law & Crime, there is a special BOND. and no other movie i've watched has exemplified this better than HEAT. it'll always be ranking among e top films ever in my heart & memory. now to e rest of e film. PACINO. DE NIRO. Guys, these two men literally run an acting class throughout e film, even during the breaths they take in this film & during their silences. me being an actor, i learnt an incredible lot from just this one film. there's a few lines that r memorable & quotable. Hanna's controlled rage & discipline are unmissable; McCauley's razor- sharp focus & ambition are ever-present. wonderful supporting cast. film takes its time to develop e sub-plots to let u soak it all in, in e heat of all e impending action. surely applaudable was e depth shown in e personal lives of both these professionals; and e trials they hv to put thru outside of their cat-&-mouse game. DON'T MISS.
