Is a cop obsessed with nabbing a thief, played by Robert DeNiro, in Heat.
Heat is a sort of thinking man's cops and robbers tale.
Pacino's character is likewise a loner, but he hasn't really figured that out for himself yet. His third marriage is a shambles. Heat opens with a beautifully planned and executed armored car robbery. Val Kilmer and Tom Sizemore play two of De Niro's regular bad-guy crew. They try out a newcomer for the armored car job, and right at the end, he screws up.
