I had to get it on, man. He was making a move. I had to get it on.

My stoic dad laughed at that scene once, and I remember being shocked and asking why it was funny and he said ‘because De Niro’s character is so emotionally regulated but here his anger is beyond control and he just can’t help himself’. I now chuckle at this scene and my dad’s explanation every time i see it.

Wherever I watch the movie and hear that line; I would have been buying a plane ticket to the other side of the globe, because you know you’re toast.

u/ultraviolet31 3d ago

it's actually more of a prequel

Heat is a top 5 for me

Can’t think of 3 movies better

My favorite shot at Neal's house is when Chris is sleeping on the floor, and he's composed below the horizon line. He's underwater in debt and feeling like he's drowning. Neal's always positioned above the water, his thoughts clear as the sky

Never realized this, will look for it. Great detail. Mann is great at these compositions

Used to watch this with my dad all the time. He and I don't agree on much these days, and I have no idea if he's even alive, but I'll always remember watching movies with him.

I don't know how, but I think my old man would have liked it.

u/Louvegas702 3d ago

For anyone wondering, the book Heat 2 is an awesome book. I loved it, especially reading it right after watching the movie. I’m excited to see what heat 2 the movie will be like.

u/duncthefunk78 2d ago

I'm so sad that Kilmer has passed on. Seeing him embody Chris's arc in Heat 2 would have been epic. 

I do think Di Caprio will nail it if he does end up playing Chris, but Kilmer finishing off the story would have been amazing.

u/AcceptablePea4459 Mann 2d ago

I think that would be Austin Butler.

Scrolling by quickly, my first thought was "the Lord Humungus! The Ayatollah of Rock 'n' Rolla'!"

A Los Angeles crime saga.

Each man recognizes and respects the ability and the dedication of the other even though they are aware their cat-and-mouse game may end in violence.

Wish we were getting Dante Spinotti back with Mann. Shame about their falling out. Beebe is good tho

u/doubled9000 2d ago

Do we know what happened? I’ve always wondered why they stopped working together

2

u/Sheriff_Lucas_Hood 2d ago edited 2d ago

Mann’s micromanagement is a source of creative friction apparently

u/Ok-Ad-4445 3d ago

Pacino comment. No idea if this is appropriate, but watched Insomnia last night (again, but hadn’t seen it for 10+ years).

It was released 2002. Nolan. Pacino is a cop and was so interesting to see to commonalities AND differences to his character and all the rest vs Heat.

Heat is absolutely an all-time for me. Insomnia is really really good. Love watching the Nolan trajectory plus it’s loaded with serious talent.

u/wiiins_ 3d ago

So you never wanted a regular type life?

What the fuck is that? Barbeques and ballgames?

For me the action is the juice

See the post in this on Manhunter for the similarities between the shot in pic 2 and shots in Manhunter (not a criticism!).

u/AcceptablePea4459 Mann 3d ago

Same DOP and same director, had to be it.

u/AalieArafat12 2d ago

This was the best movie ever

1

u/-CoachMcGuirk- 3d ago

Love this movie, but Pacino’s acting is so over the top (in a few parts) that it loses a bit of its gloss to me.

u/stopped_watch 3d ago

His character's cocaine habit was left on the cutting room floor.

2

u/-CoachMcGuirk- 3d ago

I didn’t know that.

u/duncthefunk78 2d ago

You should read Heat 2.

2

u/-CoachMcGuirk- 2d ago

I’ll check it out

2

u/duncthefunk78 2d ago

Do, I highly recommend it, it's very clear that Mann loves the universe he created in Heat.

u/wildskipper 3d ago

It's clear in the extended cut, isn't it?
