It doesn't get much better...

Rating: 10/10 (18 March 1999)

Heat should have taken every OSCAR in the world. With Bobby DeNiro and Al Pacino going head to head, what could be better? Nothing much. If there was ever a movie that you could call an "Epic" this is the movie. I don't think there has ever been a more realistic, enjoyable and smart cops and robbers flick. Just because Robert is the gangster in the movie, doesn't mean he is the "bad" guy. He is just doing what he needs to do to survive.. Pacino respects him, and knows that they don't get much better. I love the way this movie paces itself. It's like you are planning the heist with DeNiro. And it also puts you in the shoes of a cop. You get to go under cover with Pacino. The end of the movie, is one of the most heart breaking and entertaining scenes to come around in a long long time. 10 for Heat.
