one of the best action films I've seen in a long while!

Rating: Null/10 (2 May 1999)

As I've matured as a film watcher, action movies began to bore me, with its dumb stories, big budget effects, and card board acting. But then I watched Heat. Of course I had a feeling it would be a good film because of De Niro and Pacino, but it wasn't just that. The story kept me interested, and especially the action scenes were nice and tight. And it also kept me on the edge of my seat, which hardly any movies do to me. I was also surprised with the romance story lines, which also kept my interest. This is my 2nd Michael Mann film I've seen, and now, I definitely plan to see the rest of his films...great one!
