Heat started off as a pilot for a TV show, Mann actually made a TV movie called LA Takedown in the late 80's that is very similar. Mann ended up taking that story and reworking it and made Heat.

[@dosnostalgic]

Mann said that he wrote Heat first, and then scaled it down for LA Takedown when he couldn't make it as originally envisioned at the time.

[@CharlesVanNoland]

[@jamdonut4021]

La takedown ...pretty much the same movie, enjoyed that too, but you just have to watch the diner scene to see the difference Al pacino and de Niro bring to that scene...same dialogue , far superior actors. The soundtrack also amazing in heat..gives film another dimension.

[@alwayswrite2011]

18:53 - Al Pacino ad-libbed this line, so Hank Azaria's reaction is genuine surprise. 21:14 - One of the greatest exchanges in a crime drama, performed by two titans in the industry. 25:29 - I forgot the source, but Val Kilmer's actions during this firefight have been used to exemplify proper procedure during such violent exchanges. This is quite the turnaround for Val Kilmer since his debut film, "Top Secret!" (1984) You should definitely check it out, CI. (If you already did and I somehow forgot, my apologize.)

Won tickets from a radio station to go to see the Washington D.C. premier of Heat. Went with three friends. To this day, we still talk about how great the movie was to see in the theater. The shootout in the street is still the loudest 3 minutes I've ever experienced in a movie theater.

Notice how McCauley unintentionally helped Hanna do his job. By killing Waingro, he eliminated the killer of the girl that Hanna had responded to at the beginning of the movie. Interestingly, neither of them would ever realize that connection.

Hanna's job is not to "eliminate" criminals.

In my 37 years of living , HEAT was a TOP 10 for me. Excellent movie!!

This is probably Danny Trejo's best performance, his character has a lot more depth than the typical tough guy he plays and he gets to show a much wider range of emotions.

[@BigBass-xf5yi]

Yes.

I don't know Machete was pretty good;)

[@A-small-amount-of-peas]

Mostly in his death scene. The scene where De Niro asks Kilmer and Tom Sizemore are in for the bank job makes me laugh as those guys get quite a few lines displaying some emotion with some back and forth with De Niro.

I love the night-driving scenes in so many '90s movies. That time really loved night-driving visuals. A lot of great songs attached to that sort of thing too.

[@NascarDrivingJesus]

For the channel, I'd recommend watching Michael Mann's previous film, THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS. It's easily one of the best movies Daniel Day-Lewis has starred in and he personally considers it one of his favorites. 1992 theatrical cut is the superior version and most fans preferred cut but is only available on import DVD or UK/EU Netflix, while the DDC version is on Blu-ray and streaming in the United States. Michael Mann in the 90s was next level but anything after 1999's THE INSIDER, which should have won Best Picture, isn't worth reacting to, except maybe COLLATERAL (Mann's 6th or 7th best film). An entertaining enough action thriller, and Tom Cruise playing a hitman is fun, but nothing special. Nothing Mann directed in the last two decades is in the same league as HEAT or MOHICANS, or even MANHUNTER (1986 theatrical cut), hence writing HEAT II (1989-2002)

[@peterengelen2794]

My favorite Michael Mann movies: ''Thief'' (1981), ''The Keep'' (1983), ''Manhunter'' (1986), ''The Last of the Mohicans'' (1992), ''Heat'' (1995), ''The Insider'' (1999) & ''Collateral'' (2004).

[@michaelzilkowsky2936]

the Insider had some fantastic camera work, looking over the shoulder to the kitchen cabinets....vintage Mann. And the insert shot of the feet taking a couple steps on the sidewalk as Crowe's character walks from the house to the car.... magnificent.

[@evilash1815]

Val kilmer is fantastic as Doc Holliday in Tombstone! It's a must see flick. He's also great in Willow.

[@fredermac7468]

One of my all-time favorite movies. Holds up, every time you watch it again.

[@GKinslayer]

Now you need to go check out more of this director's work - Micheal Mann. You will really love his first big crime movie Theif. It stars James Caan at top of form and is said to be an extremely accurate depiction.

Thief is one of my favorites.

[@Nocturnewashere]

He should also see Manhunter and Miami Vice 2006.

[@robovike]

Collateral is peak Michael Mann. But then so is The Insider, with Al Pacino and Russell Crowe.

[@NascarDrivingJesus]

@@chrisleebowers How can MANHUNTER be a prequel to SOTL when it's the original (published in 1981 and adapted into a film in 1986) and both were released before the 1991 Hopkins movie? The embarrassing cash grab 2002 remake is a retconned prequel.

Glad you liked it. This is such thorough movie. So well done from all angles. Such a huge cast and they were all perfect.

[@_Some_Guy_]

Awesome reaction! It's nice to finally see a reactor really appreciate this classic movie. Everything about it is perfect: storyline, acting, cinematography, soundtrack. Directed by Michael Mann, who also produced the TV show Miami Vice and is credited for creating its iconic style, which can also be seen in this movie. I recommend you check out The Town (2010) starring Ben Affleck, which is a great heist movie similar to this one. If you want more De Niro and Pacino awesomeness you should definitely check out Taxi Driver (1976), Cape Fear (1991) and Carlito's Way (1993).

[@chrisleebowers]

25:25 "Aw, they got him! It's over! It's over!" Val Kilmer: "THE F*CK IT IS!!!"

This movie has one of the most stacked casts in history. Odd fact: three of the actors in this movie (Xander Berkeley, Mikelti Williamson and Dennis Heyspert) would go on to star on 24. Other cast members include Amy Brenneman (Judging Amy), Ted Lavine (Buffalo Bill) Ashley Judd (Starred in about 40 serial killer movies in the 90s before she got Weinsteined), Wes Studi (Magua in "The Last of the Mohicans) Tom Noonan (Giant creepy guy who plays giant creepy guys), William Fichner (another professional creepy guy), Hank Azaria (Moe and Krusty on The Simpsons, oddly enough) and Ton Loc.

Michael Mann, who wrote and produced "Heat," had directed the original 'Miami Vice' series in the 1980's. At the beginning of this movie, Val Kilmer's character is buying the construction explosives for the upcoming heist. The man selling the explosives is actor Martin Ferrero, who was a cast member of the original 'Miami Vice' TV series - his character's name had been "Izzy Moreno."

[@arosha1]

I thought that guy looked familiar. He’s also the guy who gets chomped on the toilet in Jurassic Park.

[@Bryan_Master_Blaster]

@@arosha1 That's right - I forgot! I read the book "Jurassic Park" by Michael Crichton, and the characters are a hell of a lot different. In the book, the lawyer is actually the hero - saves the kids and gets them out. The grandfather is a dick.

Another great one from Mann is 'Manhunter' 1986. First movie to ever feature the character of Hannibal Lecter, and Will Graham.

HEAT is defiantly one of those movies on my personal top 10. The restaurant scene with Al Pacino and Robert De Niro is always one those parts of the movie that really shows that character interaction and dynamic, which I always love when it comes to these two actors. You should have included that one line Neil McCauley (De Niros character) says during that scene. "Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner."

So this movie is actually a remake. Michael made it both time's this is loosely based on actually events. The meeting in the coffee shop actually happened. And the shoot out scene like alot of stuff in movie's that are done correctly, was actually coordinated by military personnel. It's actually show to marines as a piece of training footage because of how perfectly Val's performance was. The move is called bounding or leapfroging the used both I believe in the shot. Great movie.

[@michaelzilkowsky2936]

@@AneudiD78 Larry and Emil had been robbing armored cars, but I think you're right that Heat gave them the idea of how to rob a bank, notably just to walk in and take over (they had already been using AKs on the armored car jobs) and having watches sewn into their sleeves to know when to expect the police. They messed up horribly, though, by continuing with the plan despite the expected armored car not stopping to deposit cash and by walking in with masks on, which was a dead giveaway to the passing police car. Not to mention not having spent any time on the range learning how to shoot accurately. With around 1300 rounds of ammo on them (and head to toe body armor that made them immune to 9mm rounds), a bit of proficiency would have carved them a path to freedom fairly easily had they watched the parts of the movie dealing with ditching one vehicle for another....

Heat is an amazing movie. It´s directed by Michael Mann who also created Miami Vice, an iconic crime TV show in the 80s. So if anyone likes the vibe of this movie, the types of characters etc., Miami Vice is a must see. Miami Vice inspired GTA, so did this movie.

Interesting take on the film depicting both sides as smart. You're right. I was thinking of Die Hard and how buffoonish the cops are (except for 1) in that movie. But in the end, a personal vendetta killed DeNiro's character. He was out scot-free and couldn't help himself. I guess the movie plot needed that. Michael Mann was the main producer/director of TV Series Miami Vice. You can see his style in those shows, for sure, including the famous "In the Air Tonight" montage video from the show.

[@DoroteoVilla]

This is a public service announcement: Heat 2 A Novel by Michael Mann is out. Not going to say exactly what it is about but if you love this movie like most if the commenters do, check it out. I’m listening to it on audio and I think it’s a good way to take it in because of the Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro voice characterizations. The narrator nails both, especially Pacino’s. I can’t imagine IF and HOW they could turn the novel into a movie though. Heat is pushing thirty years since its making and all of the actors are waaaaaay too old to play their characters and in the case of Val Kilmer, sadly, he is limited by his unfortunate medical challenges. I just hope that IF they attempt to bring the sequel/prequel to the screen, that Michael Mann is the man who does it. Recasts of the characters would be understandable but replacing Michael Mann at the helm would be a non starter for me.

[@BruceJohnson-om5kl]

Dennis Hybert has been a actor for over 40 years Movies you may know: Love and Basketball, Waiting to exhale, Planet of the apes, etc. and many more. Until the commercial he's gone unnoticed. But you remember him from the TV show 24, he was the President of the United States.

This is the second time Mann made this movie because he loved this story so much. Vincent is based on a real guy who died during a heist in shootout with the cops. Vincent and Val were trained buy military on set to showcase proper leap frogging where one is covering while the other moves then repeat. The Marines use the scene to show what it looks like when done right. It was done so well it inspired many bank and armored car heists in real life it got so bad the government tried to ban this movie.

Remember when those 2 guys robbed a bank in LA and they wore all that body armor and they had armor piercing bullets and killed a bunch of cops and stuff. Those guys were inspired by the movie Heat. Police found Heat in their vcr in their apartment. True story.

If you read books, Michael Mann teamed with a crime novelist and released a sequel to this movie.

I’m listening to the audiobook right now. It’s very good if you can get past some cringe, mostly because of the guy who narrates it. I will say tho, the narrator does exceptional Al Pacino and Robert DeNiro voices. It’s worth it just on that score. Very well constructed post and pre Heat story.

Guy told me one time: “don’t let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds FLAT if you feel the heat around the corner.” Simply a great line Btw Neil and Vincent sitting in a coffee shop table did actually happen, Michael Mann had a friend and technical advisor named Chuck adamson who knew and chased a real Neil McCauley and the conversation is almost word to word

Thoroughly enjoyed your reaction. My favourite aspect of the film is the fact that the bad guys you seem to root for.

8:40 you commented on the killer soundtrack; right there you were hearing the brilliance of Terje Rypdal, a guitarist from Norway.

I can tell you never seen the early 2000s TV show "24" if you didn't know that Dennis Haysbert, "The All State Guy", wasn't an "actual actor"!😅

DeNiro its for me number 1 actor .He can play everything.
