      Wrong. Every scene was necessary. You needed that back story for the black driver. You needed to know exactly how fricked Waingro was to show how bad of a pick he was for the job in the first place. You needed to see that the guy they ripped off who wanted vengeance on Neil was able to get in contact with Waingro. You needed to know how and why they got set up when Neil was so fricking careful. You needed to see him grow close to the girl and make the promises he did to her. You needed to see Chris cheat on and treat his wife like a piece of shit. You needed to see Hanna try to hold his family together as he hunts down the scum that are destroying the city. You need to see all of it or none of the dramatic moments have any emotional weight to them.

        See the thing is that I agree with you on all of this, that its a very tight script, but it doesn't change the fact that its uninspired and fumbles on selling those emotional moments. For fricks sake i cant think of a less compelling example of the forced love interest than McCauley and Edie

    I really liked Heat, but none of the Blu-ray or streaming versions have the theatrical cut. They're all the new edited version from 2008-2009 when the first Blu-ray was put out.

    The Special Edition DVD has the full version without the editing, and the sound mix is better on the DVD too (audio track is ported from the Laserdisc).

    But my two cents - Thief is a little bit better. And James Caan pulls off the part a bit better.

    Blackhat is another really underrated film done by Michael Mann and is WMAF which is why I enjoy watching it.

    why did they spend like 3 scenes setting up the black guy's backstory just for him to get killed off in the next scene

    • 10 months ago
      Anonymous

      Just a weak part of the script. He was needed to back fill Trejo because Trejo was needed to rat them out in a convoluted way. But since they needed a back fill for Trejo they then needed to establish the black guy's character as a miserable line cook so he had a compelling reason to join the crew and we "needed" his GF there so we could feel bad when he gets killed. In this sense the GF was unnecessary for the utility of the script because nobody gave a frick about the black guy anyways.

        That's a good thing though. It shows how random and chaotic the criminal is. There's not really a grand or justified meaning to their actions. They're just fricking bombs. Mann is excellent at portraying this.

      Because it's tragic how he let go of his straight life he was trying to lead only to die instantly, it's also realistic, not everyone gets a backstory and lives to the end of the movie dodging all the bullets along with everyone else for its own sake.

      He was unironically the most sympathetic character of heist gang, the rest of whom were actual killers. No evidence he was violent, plus, he ate shit to go straight, which, based on the IRL crime stories I read about these days, is the opposite of the worst perps. The subway chokehold guy in NYC had 44 arrests.

    You have to go into it not watching it and waiting for only the shootout. It's a slow burn cat and mouse movie before and after the famous scene. It's about what it means to be tied to something you love to do even if it costs you other major aspects of your life. Also watch it at night.

    One thing I like about Heat is that you really can't date the movie as it doesn't have a huge technological focus. The scenes with cell phones are brief, and most of the vehicles (while from the 1990s and earlier) are mostly in good condition, so you tend not to pay attention to the age of the vehicle.

    I've loved this movie since about 1998 when I first saw it on VHS.

    no the whole movie is kino and flows very well. the bank heist isn't my favorite scene because that's where my favorite character dies. if you think a professional robbery crew is going to do a heist every other day without any downtime you're stupid, and there really isn't any downtime besides DeNiro's romance scenes, everything else they do in between robberies is setup, planning and police evasion.
