I'd venture to call it the best crime movie out there. It had the perfect balance of intelligent writing packaged with some of the greatest action scenes ever filmed. I can't imagine anyone filming a better shootout than the big one in the street. It still gives me goosebumps just thinking about. This scene and the meeting at the coffee shop between Deniro and Pacino nearly caused myself the cream my jeans in theater. There was not a single bad performance in the whole movie. Even the smallest roles were very well acted. People like Ashley Judd, William Fichtner, Henry Rollins, Hank Azaria, Tom Sizemore, John Voight, Natalie Portman, and yes even Tone Loc did great jobs with their relatively small parts. Hell the supporting players alone make up a great cast let alone throwing in the two acting gods and Val Kilmer. I honestly think Kilmer might have given the his best performance of them all in Heat (well ok except for maybe The Doors). I just really liked his character for some reason. I remember when this first came out. This, Casino, Seven, and The Usual Suspects all came out within just a couple months of each other. That fall and early winter produced more classics than any of the past few summers put together. |
