Heat Review - Off The Shelf Reviews

[@coreydonaldson3303]

One of my favourite scenes in Heat is when Detective Vincent Hanna is in his car driving down the freeway towards Neil McCauley and his Cadillac for their meeting while the awesome Moby cover of the Joy Division song A New Dawn Fades is playing !

[@mabl4367]

Yes!!! Me to. I can't play that song in the car or i will just speed up till I crash.

[@shamrockballs1066]

The Dark Knights opening scene was inspired by Heat, as was the tone of TDK.

[@neonsmoviereviews7969]

There’s a lot more tying them together than that. The entire dynamic between joker and Batman is the same dynamic as Pacino and DeNiro

[@absolutely1337]

Didn’t know this movie existed till seeing the boys review it. Paused their show, watched the movie. Omg what a treat this was. Thank you for making me know about his treasure!

[@notmyname1289]

Hahaha Gary is a dead ringer for Waingro

[@M85619]

thought the same...for a while lol...Gary's cool as hell tho

[@shirleycameron7718]

Love this movie from start to finish.....great.. tq

[@iansawyer3332]

And Iain looks like silent Bob

[@usamazahid3882]

Did you have to say, Dead ringer?

[@paulpanther4685]

Great review of the best crime thriller ever made. Heat is a perfect film in every aspect.

[@MrHereWeGoYo]

33:23 So glad to have Gary acknowledge that amazing scene. Dennis Haysbert's reaction to her "I'm proud of you" line gets me every time.

[@ScienceChap]

The fire fight was choreographed by Andy McNab, formerly of the SAS. It was used as a start point for weapons handling, tactical withdrawal and fire discipline when I joined the army. I remember leading an assault on an enemy position on exercise and all I could think of was McAuley shouting "MOVE!" between 3 round bursts of fire. I did the same, and my Teacher afterwards said it was one of the most aggressive and fast moving infantry assaults he'd ever seen. That made my day...!

[@dustyjoe71]

In a film about bad guys, Waingro is the antagonist.

[@High_Key]

I freaking love this movie. Made me a die hard Michael Mann fan. Goldeneye also came out this year and the first Mission Impossible. 1995 was an amazing year for film.

[@rustykuntz94]

Daniel Lin Mission Impossible came out in 96

[@nicovds]

And Die Hard with a Vengeance

[@aintsam9952]

Se7eN came out in ‘95, too. 95 was indeed a great year for films.

[@rosemaryfarell5264]

M:I was 1996

[@croatiankid6595]

And casino

[@Hen2006]

i love heat. de niros last line is so poetic 'i told you im never going back'. the final shot with the moby soundtrack is pure film art

[@rustykuntz94]

And yet another character actor in this is Xander Berkeley (Ralph) who is the poor schlub who Hanna’s wife is just using to piss him off. He was the step father to John Connor in T2, Gregory in the Walking Dead, so many roles. This cast was just majestic

[@ddc2957]

Gattaca.

[@Elhao]

Come on, William Fichtner is not just a "that guy", I love that guy!....damn.

[@scottcorcoran4854]

Great review as usual gentleman. small side point that no one seems to mention when talking about this movie is that it is actually a remake. Michael Mann wrote and directed a TV movie back in 1989 called L.A. takedown that is basically heat in 90mins. Even has the same character names and definitely worth seeing as a companion piece to this classic.

[@luisa.belmares5716]

Hello guys, I've just find your channel a few days ago and now is one of my favorites. Cheers from Mexico.

[@BrotherChrisBuffalo]

One of my favorite movies. So many people have forgotten and/or given this film poor ratings and/or saying it it so slow moving. What I always try to bring to attention is that this film tries to present the lives/views of multiple persons involved in a crime thriller which this film does so very well. With the excellent cinematography, music score, very recognizable cast with outstanding acting and you have one of the most enjoyable and re-watchable films in American cinema. Thank you for putting this together and sharing.

[@torstensandvei4973]

Could not agree more. I think I watch this movie every year or every two years or so. It is just so absurdly well written, directed and acted.

[@mkf628]

it's bc their brains are slow moving.. not one for adhd morons.

[@5oups3yeVi3w]

HEAT was supposedly an inspiraiton for the style and tone of The Dark Knight. Both remarkable Crime Thrillers/ Dramas :D

[@DemonBoy3223]

It is. Nolan even admitted that. ;D

[@robertwill23]

Nolan is a hack. Dark Knight is escapist comic book fantasy that masquerading as serious drama.

[@coreydonaldson3303]

+robertwill23 Piss Off !

[@Johnny_Thunder]

@@robertwill23 well said. Dark knight is garbage. Comparing it to this masterpiece is offensive.

[@stevestreet2825]

The Soundtrack mated with the scenes was epic. Thank you Michael Mann what a Masterpiece. 26 yrs later i still remember the day i saw it in the theater, wanted to steal the poster behind glass on the way out.

[@Rodders0223]

Now this is what we are subbed for!!

[@sosurreptitious]

@8:00 omg i was literally about to comment. this is a MALE FILM! funny that you address it. still it's pretty compelling to me as a woman. many/most hollywood stories (esp classics) are male centered, just the way it is and can still be appreciated by all mostly, imo. great great reviews. i've been watching your reviews of Pacino/deniro films all night and into the afternoon. cheers!

[@Kaiyanwang82]

My ex GF was the one that watched action movies, I came to appreciate them because of her. Said this, this movie feels "male" not for the action per se - that's not necessarily male even if often is - but for the way the relationships are felt, lived, and resolved. The issue with the way you spend time and the way your partner, usually a woman, reacts to it is way too real even if you have an honest job.

[@AarenJable]

Awesome review guys, this is definitely one of my favourite films, and Waingro does look like an evil Gary.

[@Protoman85]

Yay finally the movie that I first thought of when I saw Garys face for the first time. When I first saw this movie I thought it was a bit slow-moving but the second time I understood its greatness and now it just gets better every time I watch it.

[@allencampbell3350]

I had to pause it 17 seconds in from laughing at that Waingro comment. I don't think I can ever unsee it now :/

[@Protoman85]

I laughed too because from the first video of these I saw the similarity between Iain and Waingro and here it was finally mentioned :)

[@Grandmastergav86]

That one mission in GTA 4, Three Leaf Clover was inspired by this.

[@MrLorenzovanmatterho]

You said it all, couldn't agree more! I always think a good sequel would be Val Kilmer's character coming back years later to reconnect with his son and set up a new crew, Vincent Hanna now a private detective gets on his trail.

[@coreydonaldson3303]

I rewatch Heat every few months !

[@jacksmith3189]

One of my favorite movies I have the DVD and rewatch it every few years Excellent video review

[@TheBoru1976]

Great review. Nice to have you guys back on Terra Firma. You've inspired me to rewatch. I lament the fall from grace of two acting legends. Heat was their swansong.

[@jonblasik8722]

Thief is another Michael Mann crime thriller worth a look

[@coreydonaldson3303]

My favourite films of 1995 are 1. Heat 2. Se7en 3. The Usual Suspects

[@josh72456]

Corey Donaldson I prefer se7en and the usual suspects to this.

[@cristerowarrior1450]

Wes study , he's a Cherokee actor. Most famous for last of the Mohicans

[@azraelswrd]

I had no idea Michael Mann did LotM. WOW!!!

[@cristerowarrior1450]

why am I an Idiot? Is Wes Studi Not Cherokee?

[@rottedhumanfleshforfeastin995]

He was also Sagat in the Street Fighter movie from ‘94 with JCVD

[@clarkee1ofmany]

Great Review, You clearly enjoyed doing this one.... ..I saw this many years ago on a standard say 32' TV and enjoyed the film but then didn't see again in full until 2015. And if ever a movie needed a home cinema set up to do it justice then this is one., during that downtown LA gunfight I was looking over my shoulder to see if there were bullet holes in the walls behind me.... couldn't agree more, this deserves more praise..........

[@horrorstateofmind2724]

You guys are my daily watch. keep up the great work.

[@JezzebellaLu]

Great job, boys. I haven't seen this movie in years... But I do remember it being spectacular. I'll have to revisit it soon. Iain - Dude... You are NOT sexist. LOL. You're a family man and a stand up guy. Anyone who watches ya'll should know this. You say what's on your mind without worrying about how it'll come across. It's wonderful. Don't ever sensor yourself. Anyone who tells you different is a dumb bag of cunts.

[@ManDuderGuy]

Jesse Meriwether Hear hear!

[@benoi25]

So glad you guys did a review on this movie. All time favorite! Thank you!

[@Covencraft]

Wayne gro was also in Knockaround Guys.

[@Hammerhead547]

Supposedly this movie inspired the two bank robbers whose armed rampage became known as the North Hollywood Shootout which ended with one robber blowing his brains out and the other getting shot in the legs 20 times being handcuffed and left to slowly bleed to death for 70 minutes. Wayne Grove didn't just screw over the crew, his killing of that security guard could have gotten them all a death sentence if they'd been arrested.

[@jamessiddle7389]

Another great review guy's, love this film, just rewatched it again last night, my favourite scene is when Val Kilmer's character Chris is warned off his wife that the heat is there so he can't return home to his life, he gets away with the robbery but loses everything in the process, always makes me feel sad, emotional.

[@coreydonaldson3303]

Pretty cool and interesting discussions about the Michael Mann film Heat !

[@TheBeird]

Nice review guys. On an unrelated note, have 20th Century Fox taken down your Alien movie reviews?

[@ManDuderGuy]

One of the best, if not THE best movie regarding gunfighting realism, especially the sound. The blasts from those SBRs bouncing off the concrete is raw and real. Mann is the man.

[@maxheadshot3287]

You guys are amazing, you are giving the classics what they deserve, only real movie lover and experts can do this. Btw. Hanna's scenes with his TV are brilliant as well, and the soundtrack by Elliot Goldenthal ofc.

[@Rakerong]

I love how they were talking about the great cast and then when they get to Wed Studi and call him 'THAT GUY' and had the Last of the Mohicans mention in the beginning but didn't mention that movie lol.

[@MrHereWeGoYo]

lol at "That guy."

[@xenablossom4682]

Saw the film for the first time a few weeks ago. It's amazing and deserves a ton of praise and more attention.

[@BigBWolf90]

The shootout...whew that's the best shootout in from that era. Also the movie Miami Vice y'all talked about...Michael Mann was pretty much the genius behind the TV show

[@kojiattwood]

"Ya get killed walkin' your DOGGIE!"

[@stephenbutler6727]

Awesome review.probably in my top ten movies.would love you to do your next review on either Apocalypse Now or Mulholland Drive.keep up the awesome reviews.

[@isuriadireja91]

wait... is that Waingro co-reviewing this movie..??

[@informer3000]

YEEESSS! My favourite movie reviewed by you guys! That's double the entertainment!!!

[@Wangan280z]

When kilmer sees those cops, its crazy how immediate he begins opening fire, fuckin insane, hes just in beserker mode, he rivals john wick with how fast hes changing direction shooting, looks absolutely drop dead lethal.

[@ShockL0ver]

Movie was awesome, soundtrack was awesome. It's worth buying a copy, not just renting.

[@Jigsaw0097]

I actually really enjoy Miami Vice and Public Enemies.

[@poloshirtsamurai]

36:06 My favorite in HEAT. Love the echoing of gunffire. So real.

[@dakotajensen181]

You guys somehow make this movie seem 100 times more "fun" lol the shootout blew my 13yo mind randomly flipping the tube to HBO and seeing my boi val Kilmer rocking the 90s only like the lizard king could do! 🤘 cheers guys and thanks for doing these reviews! They are so fun to watch and get sucked into my chair hahah

[@migelcorleone8756]

Malcolm Mann has confessed that the scene at Eadi's overlooking the city when Neil was talking about the algae, had CGI.

[@rustykuntz94]

Thought you were gonna not mention Chris's (Val Kilmer) arc, but you did after the ending. He is the only one to get away yes, BUT...they made a point to have him mention his absolute love for his wife & son in the film and now he must move on never again seeing them. That part got me the most, the heartbreak of both of their reactions and the fantastic score that went with the scene as without any dialogue you see the pain on both Kilmer & Ashley Judd's faces.

[@johnt84]

Heat is a once in a lifetime type film. Incredible all the way through.

[@certifiedscott]

Great job guys, seriously outdone yourselves this time with a stone cold classic! all is forgiven for the last review 😜

[@gj8683]

I like the part when MacCauley runs straight from the hotel where he killed Waingro to the infrastructural open spaces of LAX.

[@reesepacker7983]

LOVE Michael Mann's work and style...i always thought if anyone did a stand alone movie featuring the Batman universe ...say a movie about Bane, the Joker , Cat Woman , Penquin etc it should be him

[@rottedhumanfleshforfeastin995]

Any chance you guys going to review Michael Mann’s forgotten classic, Thief?

[@jamielama7716]

Not just GTA, this also inspired the Payday series as well.

[@adrianramirez8882]

I'll never look at Gary the same again...

[@TheMan-vw3lk]

If sizemore had of pissed off with the first bag of cash...."he would of got away as the first out of the bank."

[@guyjperson]

Have you guys done Ronin? Have you done other Heist movies? I'll have to look. Great review, as always. I agree--Gary looks like WayneGrow

[@mattmidgley4275]

After watching this movie again after so many years and then watching the review after this review is spot on.

[@haroon420]

1995 was a vintage year for movies! ❤

[@craigcareen3889]

Have you done a review of three kings?

[@KTKZon58]

That Guy #1-William Fichtner That Guy #2-Wes Studi And how could y'all forget Bubba from Forest Gump aka Mykelti Williams?!?!

[@rustykuntz94]

Karen The kat ZON Haha I just made that comment. He was great when interacting with Ashley Judd and that intense sub plot of her and would she or wouldn’t she give up Chris (Val Kilmer).

[@billybobtexas]

A masterpiece... great review

[@neonsmoviereviews7969]

Monkey and Apple’s The Making of Heat video always comes to mind whenever I see this film

[@joshuatunis6732]

one of my fave movies.

[@Naldo2001]

32:04, Very Nice, Sweet reload

[@coreydonaldson3303]

Heat is a kick ass Michael Mann film !

[@Hrotriks]

I saw this film when I was 13 at the movies ... a lot of the drama flew over me but damn that heist made it worth it for my young mind altho I did knew back then that there was something in this film I need to rewatch it now to really get it all I owe it to myself and great review fellas.

[@skaro85]

Awesome movie! Awesome review!

[@deshawntay5275]

Can y’all do Wrong Turn 2?

[@jackchilli]

Ya heard Michael Mann is writing prequel novels on the characters? God knows when they’ll be released

[@my88110]

I like that they cut out a sub-plot that Pacino's character was a coke addict, and just left him a bit nuts

[@informer3000]

Awww man, you didn't bring up the Ralph and the TV scene.....

[@frederickjefferson2289]

One of the few times I expected a great movie and it EXCEEDED my expectations.

[@josh72456]

I watched this with my dad and he kept talking during the cafe scene trying to comment how deniro was better than pacino😤

[@nox5870]

Classic Masterpiece !!! One of the greatest Movies ever made !

[@gran-roan]

As a great review, as the movie deserves it. And now that you are talking about the skyline.. did you ever review "Blue Thunder"? It probably won't be much of your liking, but I loved it as a kid.

[@dejabu24]

this movie is awesome , the actors 5 stars

[@zanemagers7465]

Just bought on Blu Ray, been waiting to watch, guess now is the time aha, time to watch and compare our opinions :)

[@twiedenfeld]

You couldn't think of Wes Studi's name? You showed a clip of him from Last of the Mohicans.

[@matthias_samahl1266]

Oh i love that guy! Haha you should make that a running joke, shouldn't be too hard he's in everything! Yeah i always saw this as that good action crime movie that's really long, but i felt like there are better ones out there and if i wanted to see a long action crime movie i usually went for The Godfather, Scarface or The Untouchables which in my opinion are better then Heat. I also just have a really hard time buying Pacino as a cop, i know he's not the best cop on the force here but still. Great review!

[@jackcraven2266]

Great review guys, not my favorite Michael Mann movie but still a great one.

[@Rmdj86]

please review Carlito's Way

[@coreydonaldson3303]

My favourite Michael Mann films are 1. The Last Of The Mohicans 2. Heat 3. Manhunter 4. The Insider 5. Thief 6. Collateral

[@josh72456]

Corey Donaldson would agree with you for number 1 I like the insider and manhunter too. Collateral I found ok. Thief I found boring.

[@rottedhumanfleshforfeastin995]

Corey Donaldson Thief is my personal number 1, James Cann, brother.

[@kroyjrojas1971]

Can you do a review for Den of Thieves please ?

[@Covencraft]

i've watched IT and the Stand over a dozen times each lol, Heat was cake to watch, love it.

[@alanbo32]

Would you guys review Cop Land one of these days? It’s a real hidden gem, no one talks about with superb acting performances

[@JW93581]

You guys need to do a Manhunter review tht would be amazing. Nice vid

[@haroon420]

My god!! You spend an hour just talking about every single detail and how amazing it is… and end with ‘I recommend the movie’ Lmao. Brilliant!! 😂

[@mrsanatra1]

GTA 5 was inspired by this movie. This is a real classic and the shootout in the street at the end smh fucking GOLD

[@counterfeit1148]

I always wonder where their weapons are when they walk out of the bank.

[@Harry-Cardboard]

Under their jackets, barrels sticking out the bottom. You can clearly see Sizemore's rifle barrel when he leaves the bank. You can't see it in the clip in this video but you see it in the film.

[@2mac11]

It's funny they way the pronounce Tone Loc name as Tone Lock

[@jonnychadbourne8127]

Would love to hear your thoughts on Den Of Thieves which i thought is a sort of reimagining of HEAT.

[@HOTSTUDish]

My favourite film Also I live in Plymouth as well
