Plot Summary
When Al Pacino and Robert De Niro square off, Heat sizzles. Written and directed by Michael Mann, Heat includes dazzling set piecesand a bank heist that USA Today's Mike Clark calls "the greatest action scene of recent times." It also offers "the most impressivecollection of actors in one movie this year" (Newsweek). Val Kilmer, Jon Voight, Tom Sizemore and Ashley Judd are among thememorable supporting players in this tale of a brilliant L.A. cop (Pacino) following the trail from a deadly armed robbery to a crewheaded by an equally brilliant master thief (De Niro).

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Robert De Niro's last great role before he devoted himself to self-parody.
Fresh: Heat occupies an exalted position among the countless contemporary crime films.
Fresh: Michael Mann and a superlative cast have taken a classic heist movie rife with familiar genre elements and turned it into a sleek, accomplished piece of work, meticulously controlled and completely involving.
Fresh: The taciturn De Niro and the braying Pacino share a flawless scene over a cup of coffee, but the real honors go to Val Kilmer and Ashley Judd as a warring, loving couple.
Customer Reviews
The Most Under-rated movie
If you like crime drama's then you will love this movie....Michael Mann's direction is always subtle in most of his movies and they are often long, in for a reason, its a story that must play out completely, and makes sure of that...nothing he does in never chopped...this movie could not play out any better...its not over dramatic and the acting is driven more on what's happening to each character in the moment instead of relying on slap stick lines being tossed back and forth...the bank scene is one of the most memorable...not to mention its the first time in pacino's and deniro's career that they play on screen together at the same time...this movie was absolutely robbed at the academy awards...
Still one of the best
I love how well this movie was made and how well the actors pulled you into the story. One of the all time best!
special editon?
From what I hear, there is no difference between the special edition version and regular?
