Most like this are simply not made today.

This is one of my favorite movies of all time, I actually own the digital copy on youtube and watch this scene all the time lol. About 4 years ago it was playing in a theater called TIFF Bell Lightbox in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada which is near where I live. I bought 5 tickets and brought 4 of my good friends with me (2 of whom had never seen it before) and treated them all to this masterpiece. Watching it in a theatre was a lifelong dream of mine and when I saw the promo for it I couldn't believe my eyes! It was magical and this scene was UNREAL! It don't get no better than De Niro and Al Pacino going head to head like this. Michael Mann's best!

I agree. It’s the greatest sleeper film ever. I won no awards at all yet here it is with a massive reputation and acclaim 20 years later.

Gratuitous violence of the worst type .

Shit I remember watching this on VHS 📼 as a kid in the 90’s. I could only imagine how it must of felt watching and leaving the Cinema after that experience

Cops & robbers The final scene's a bit bewildering

This is not realistic lol

@@javiercarrillo914 its not 100% realistic but there are some elements of realism like how loud the guns can get. The robber's fire superiority making a fool out of the cops that outnumber them 10 to 1, the robber's leapfrog tactics, the way the robbers and the cops handle their guns, etc.

@@wolfboy20 the den of thieves final shootout was more realistic then Heat. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hNF7Z5OazsicpXk.htmlsi=f51DKdMQg8E4CF19

It was the technical adviser of the film for these scenes was ex SAS, at the Brecon school of infantry tactics this clip is used to show fire and manoeuvre, not really as a teaching aid but just because it was a good clip on a demoralising course.

Most realistic yet they shot how many cops while in motion using (full?) auto weapons without taking a single shot until a few minutes later? This scene was inspired by an LA bank robbery from the early 90s where assailants wore full body armor that stopped all 9mm rounds. So where is the body armor in this Hollywood re-interpretation? Then you have Al Pacino on the move as he shoots a running suspect whose carrying a little girl, but Pacino gets a perfect head shot, of course. It couldn't possibly be less real.

Are they allowed to take that shot in the end with the kid there?

@@jasonremedios6625 ONLY if there is no other alternative to end the shootout and the officer has a clear shot. He did have a clear shot for that brief second when Tom’s character turned to face him and it was just enough.

Not even close of a realistic shootout.

Have you seen Extraction 1 & 2? Some directors are putting more grounded reality to combat in acting nowadays since they have miltary experts among the crew. John Wick also employs this style but not all scenes have music blaring. Even the Punisher series have the actor to learn actual tactics for the main character.

they trained by SAS instructor...

@@constipatedparker5879 What are you talking about? The entire bridge scene is one giant transformers clusterfck with unnecessary explosions and villians with stormtrooper aim. And the Punisher? Dude takes so much of a beating, that his litterally inhuman. Not to mention, for some odd reason they all charge him one by one.

SAS vet Andy McNab supervised the shoot-out & combat. I agree the score is so minimal and atmospheric it allows the gunfire to completely dominate the audio. A masterclass in film making.

@@peterabram62 Never knew that bit of information, but I could tell they had a weapons specialist/choreographer that knew what they were doing. One of the most realistic aspects of this scene is in the way that the accuracy of gunfire is portrayed. Most of the general public have never been in a gunfight, and Hollywood has the populace convinced that John Wick is a factual display of marksmanship. The truth is, most rounds fired in a high stress situation miss, regardless of how well the shooter can put groupings on a paper target. "Fight or Flight", and all that. Heat demonstrated this fact superbly, in my opinion.

taking the child was an act of desperation, spur of the moment decision, Sizemore was alone and disoriented.

The kid wasn't meant as a shield but a deterrent..... I could be wrong, but he thought they wouldn't shoot him with the kid in arms.

He was talking about FDIC which means the bank loses money and the customers dont

supposedly, Dillinger would do a similar thing. it keeps customers from reacting, and if they're there to get fleeced by the bank, may even do the Stockholm Syndrome for them. As for worrying about health issues, that likely comes from a prior robbery where that turned into an issue--otherwise why think of it?

it adds incentive to prevent the civilians from attempting to act like heros so it was a good idea

Yup u beat me to it brother. RIP Tom Sizemore. He will live FOREVER in this iconic movie. ✌️

@@tommybrown9534 Sizemore: One of my all time favorite actors. His role here, and also in the motion picture "Blackhawk Down" solidified that for me.

@@virgilwyatt4632 yea I watched Black Hawk Down a while back.. great movie and great actor

Most retarded one. Just like you. You change magazine every 500 shots fired. You run faster than a car. All cars in traffic are selfdriving and just sits in traffic jam without any passengers. 20 cops can't hit a damn thing. Al Pacino is a perfect sniper after running 500 meters.

It was good. Completely unnecessary. Let them take the money… maybe cops can actually do their job later

This and sicario are some of the most legit depictions of gun fighting

Saw this in a theater the weekend it opened. Was floored by the sound design of this scene.

@@User_491jx6f Damn, I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to see this scent on the big screen, with the huge theatre speakers. I read somewhere that Michael Man, instead of adding the gun shots in post, had set up microphones all around the downtown area and recorded the gunfight that way. So, the gun shots that we hear in the movie, were actually from the blanks fired from the actual guns. There's a clear distinction between the gun shots in "Heat", and every other movie, literally, ever made.

@@danieldevito6380 it's unbelievably good. Especially the loudness of the shots. Would you believe how Heat wasn't even nominated for an Oscar... not even for sound design/editing??! Three bloody nominations that year... Braveheart won... Ridiculous!

@@mccarthy5825 You have to admit, though, that Braveheart was pretty awesome lol... Also, those awards are meaningless. So much BS politics to into the decisions.

@@danieldevito6380 braveheart was filmed a lot in my country, Ireland. I know some army reserves used for that and Saving Private Ryan. A work colleague of mine back in early 00s was there for the whole lot of the Normandy landing shoot. He was a squad leader or something in the FCA (it was changed to something else in 05, but before then the jpke was it stood for Free Clothing Association!) Anyway apparently whatever director was in charge of them storming the beach and jumping out of the landing craft etc... They would do all the wide and establishing shots and Spielberg would do the real action stuff... So this guy was just relentless and having the guys stand in waist high cold water with aa heavy pack and badly fitting clothes for hours and hours... He often would keep them waiting and they would miss lunch and over stay the allotted time. Obviously people started getting sick and they were being paid virtually nothing... So one day they do a shot of 40-50guys, all wet and cold, running up the beach, with certain extras told to drop etc... It was like that from 9am until about 4pm and he put them back out into the water and by this time they were at breaking point. My mate Pierce (he's very briefly in a shot with Hanks) refused. Said no. We need hot food, a warm tent, a break etc. This guy comes over and is just going crazy, he had kept them waiting so long the tide had gone out to get his lunch, starts saying 'so unprofessional buddy, no wonder you Irish never fight a war, too soft etc etc etc'... Pierce loses it and says... Right I'm in charge of like 60of these guys... We are going home. I'm going to tell the FCA about this, we are being treated so bad etc etc... Half an hour later he is talking to someone and gets a tap on the shoulder... Its Spielberg. He takes him to a production trailer,assistant makes him a coffee and apologises, says he is going to personally make sure the lads are treated better and asked would he sit down in this shot where Hanks walks by etc. Was apparently genuinely concerned that they were treated bad and after thhe majority of that FCA group were done, Spielberg, Hanks, Sizemore, Ribisi, Pepper and some veterans, all gave them a round of applause... He wasn't on the shoot for Braveheart but knew people in the FCA that were and said that Mel was an amazing guy, very approachable, funny, always making jokes, had lunch with the lads etc... I've a good story about Mel too.... So about 10 years ago I spent a weekend at a tattoo convention in Cork with this awesome dancer and actor named Raul... The guy who played the main bad guy in Apocalypto. You know with the jawbone on his shoulders... A class guy, really cool, really down to earth... Just a lovely person. And he told me that Mel is really terrified of bugs and spiders and creepy crawlies. Really hates em. So because a lot of it was shot in the jungle, especially the chase and all... there were many little things scurrying around with many legs! Mel ordered in some gas bombs to clear out patches of the jungle of insects for production tents and the like... But someone fecked up... The gas went off and after 10 mins stuff began to fall out of the lush jungle canopy... But then it got louder... Some big bangs... Apparently besides insects... Huge spiders, snakes, all kinds of monkeys and birds etc were dropping down too because the gas worked TOO well! Not only that but no one ever thought of how the humidity and all would affect all the dead things... So things started rotting... The smell after a few days was apparently so bad, the native workers and people who LIVED in the jungle were really sick from the rotting stench! 😂 Not only that but it attracted a ton of wildlife because of all these dead things! 😂 My favourite movie mistakes are in Braveheart... When he leans down to kiss his wife at her funeral you see a little van driving behind his shoulder... When he throws a guy onto a big spike during the first raid u see a guy in denim shirt and jeans and a baseball cap! There are tons of times that you see the bouncy rubber axes and swords.. But yeah i do unironically like thst movie... I was 12 when it came out and being Irish... Well...like it said a lot. It was at the end of The Troubles and the peace process began in 1998 but thhe freedom from Britain struck a chord in this country. Also Sophie Marceau 😍 😍 😍 Her, Monica Bellucci and Eva Green... Pure Euro magic! Have you ever seen Michael Manns' first version of Heat? It's a TV movie called LA Takedown... Basically the same film and sort of same characters but of course nowhere near as amazing as Heat! I love the film he made with Depp and Christian Bale about real life bank robber called John Dillinger called Public Enemies. Marion Cotillard and Stephen Graham are amazing in it too. Some of the robberies and chases are pure Heat but set in the 1920s! I really like The Town too because it has so much of the care, thought, effort and little touches in its action as Heat without copying it... Ambulance recently was OK, I do like Baby Driver, Drive, Inside Man, Point Break (the original),... But nothing will ever beat Heat... Even the first job they do... Top stuff... The side stories of Chris and his wife cheating,then her telling him to leave, Danny Trejos story and the guy who replaces him... Seeing his wife see the news in the bar was just heartbreaking! Al Pacino 's marriage falling apart and his step daughter' s suicide attempt (natalie Portman), DeNiro meeting someone he can leave with... But in the end he actually stuck to his 30 second thing... The fact he just couldn't let Waingro live... Then Al not letting him die alone...wow..There is so much heart and character moments in it to compliment the action. Damn sorry bout the rant mate! Just really enjoy movies! 😂 👍 All the best from 🇮🇪

Black hawk down 💯

I loved the movies he was in but can't escape how much of an ahole he was: History of alleged aggressive behavior towards women In 2003, Sizemore was convicted of domestic violence against his girlfriend, Heidi Fleiss, and was also given three years probation and ordered to undergo anger management counseling at that time, states CNN. Fleiss said in a statement in 2003, she "loved that man and I was very good to him and what he did to me was wrong. I want to pretend I never met him." In 2009, he was arrested again on charges of domestic violence against his fiance, who was not identified, and was held on bail of $20,000, reports Reuters. In 2016, he was arrested on suspicion of felony domestic violence, reports USA Today. In 2017, The Hollywood Reporter reported that he was removed from the set of a movie in Utah in 2003, after it was alleged that he had touched the genitals of an 11-year-old actress. Roi Maufas, who worked as a production assistant during that incident, told, "He was this guy who was already known for making inappropriate comments, being drunk, being high. We’re talking about consistent behavior, just being ‘Tom Sizemore’ on set every day," reports US Weekly.

​@@Cruiser-nr3plObviously injured from childhood. Probably turned to acting as an outlet/valve....most do....others comedy. Works for some, didn't for him

You're just copying and pasting reported news which is mostly fake. The way he treated Heidi fleiss , a convicted human trafficker has no bearing on him as a human being. Tom was a good man and friend he would give you the shirt off his back.

I didn’t know he died til I came to this comment section. One of my favorite actors from my childhood.

Omg you read my mind. Thanks for explaining cause I’ve never seen the movie.

oh ye, but how about all the pеоple in the bank? ))

@@chuck77k nahh they don't care about it, once they get the money they'll be ghost

@@tabedabedu please read the first comment in thread )) there would be no point in a brutal heist like this in real life, it's just action, nothing more.

@@NoBetterBentley Oh, you should watch the entire movie - exquisite filmmaking from Michael Mann. Just... awesome, the whole thing.

Went to work for the fbi no?

After successfully running a covert unit in the military.

Became a President of the USA too.

Thats brilliant 😎👌💯

I was in good hands but I saved 15% on my car insurance by switching to National General insurance. Truck that lizard. 😁

Michael Mann at his best

Now when you see a crime movie you always say Its good but its not HEAT.

Еs,of kos...

Fuckin hell, I bet it was. Movie theater bass must've been amazing in this scene. I worked in a theater when the Dark Knight came out and there's a scene in it that still gives me chills when I think of it--Joker in a stolen cop car, sticking his head out of the window. In the theater, the bass was so strong you felt it in your whole body. I think I stepped in to watch at least a dozen times kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fNqdZ6qVscm8o58.html

He steals the spotlight throughout this entire sequence

Not putting the mask on in the banks ?

@@nsmcgirtThey disabled the cameras beforehand so there wouldn’t be able to ID them through cam footage. The only people who could ID them would be witnesses who remembered their face during the heist.

The mistake they made was underestimating their opponent and taking an unnecessary risk doing so. They could have moved on, hit more banks in other states. Neil was warned he was hot but he went for the big score anyway and paid the price.

Clearly, a hothead (my argument is that person is Chris for opening fire the moment he saw Hanna's face) was the difference between a perfect getaway and an overall failure by the time of the movie's climax, though alternatively, Detective Hanna showed up right at the nick of time as Chris was just about to get in the car. Hanna arguably was just as much of the difference maker for the crew's fall as Neil was for not laying low in the aftermath.

The real irony is that they were done after this score, they were all going to retire. If they had just gotten away with it, no innocent people would have died, the streets wouldn't have been turned into a warzone, it would have just been over. Hanna would have been upset that he didn't catch them but he'd move on to the next case.

Great point, Ryan, about the sleek cinematography having a 2010's vibe.

Who would you cast in a 2010s version of heat?

Yeah, and bullets don't penetrate the cars the robbers are hiding behind

Uraken not everything is 100% legit but this is one of the most realistic gunfight movies made along with probably blackhawk down and sicario

Ну где отдача?

De Niro.. Great actor, little brains!

​@@108pel Yeah, a great actor, as long as he plays the exact same character that he always plays.

And Val Kilmer could walk and talk by himself

ouch! you'll get there yourself one day mate ;)

De Niro 🤡

Michael Mann. Director, Genius,, also see "Public Enemy" with Johnny Depp as John Dillinger,, GREAT SHOOTOUTS.

well said lol

I wonder what an interaction from Al’s two characters from both films would look like

His GF watching the news really broke my heart

He should have got a job selling car Insurance.

DeNiro always play good❤

no it is a movie scene

You sound scary, dude

i think you're exaggerating a bit here, dude :D

chill dude😂

Dude

They both have acted in several movies since...not the "last dance" here by any means

Michael Mann's best film

I remember when they shot this in DTLA,BLEW THE CITY UP for 2 days, loosely inspired by the NoHo B of A shootout. Was definitely one of coolest location shoot I've ever been privy to . Love living in this city!

Yeah I think the exact same thing about this scene! Neil and is crew threw Pacino and his detective's tails prior to the heist, they thought his crew had left the country. Then all of the sudden in this scene one of the detectives gets a tip that Neil's crew are considering a bank, miraculously as they are actually carrying out the robbery. So then Pacino happened to be in the room, hearing the detective say this, and IMMEDIATELY commanded his whole team to leave knowing Neil's crew are at the bank right there and then. And not only that, but Pacino's character somehow gets like the entire LAPD to respond to the scene where NO 911 calls or witnesses or alarms have occurred, and the entire fucking department is already posted up there with several roadblocks in like 3 minutes. This movie is banger but yeah that part of this scene is a huge stretch. I can believe Pacino's character and his detectives making it there in time before Neil's crew leaves, but there is no fucking way standard uninformed beat cops would have had all the roads blocked off.

it's a film.. 🤣🤣🤣

We have no idea how much time elapsed and why are you looking for reasons to hate the film? Grow up.

It's also in downtown Los Angeles, and that's where LAPD HQ is.

​@@giulio76fulпиздец, ты наблюдательный !

Remember, the cops had a tip-off that a bank was going to be robbed from Van Sant's crew after they beat it out of Trejo. So, the cops were already on their way. They weren't waiting for the bank to be robbed, they already knew in advance about the robbery.

Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka = Ghazghkull Marg-aret Thatcher, a force of all-devouring monstrous barbarity

Of course both features were directed by the master that is Michael Mann : technical support came from Mick Gould, an ex-SAS Operative who worked alongside Liam Neeson, Denzel Washington and many others. Easy to see why Gould is the "right-hand/go-to" specialist when it comes to action scenes, weapons handling and so on.

@@anthonylewis2080 The action scenes in Denzel's Equalizer series are excellent also.

Shhh....

@@Mike-qo4kp What?.... I can't hear you!

They certainly *shouldn’t*, it’s criminally negligent or it ought to be. But cops absolutely sometimes do go gunfighter in crowds when quietly tailing would work just as well.

Wasn’t their a shootout in LA in the 90s where the cops shot up a bunch of civilian vehicles with people still in them while trying to hit the perps? Idk if it was the infamous North Hollywood shootout or a different one

In the 90s?, shit nah theyd be shooting back
