It Was Alright

Rating: 9/10 (3 February 2007)

"Heat is a crime thriller about a cop played by Pacino who tries to catch Robert De Nero as an expert thief. There is some action in it but overall there is lots of blah blah blah then a little excitement then some more blah blah. Several famous actors have parts such as Val Kilmer, Tom Sizemore, William Fichtner and several others. The movie runs for just less than three hours which is about 45 minutes too long in my opinion. When Michael Mann makes movies he has a tendency to make the film drag and run a lot longer than it should be and try and make up for it by putting a scene where there is a lot of action. In Heat there is a big shootout after a bank robbery but it takes forever to get to that point of the movie. So if you want to rent a big action movie that is really intense than just rent something else and just catch it on TV.
