Vincent Hannah (Al Pacino) is a detective that has been tracking Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro), a leader of a crew of professional thieves.
The trailers and advertisements leading up to the release of Michael Mann's "Heat" emphasized the fact that this is the first film where Pacino and De Niro would face-off with one another. Both actors were in "The Godfather: Part II," however they were never on screen together as the narrative is told. "Heat" delivers on those trailer promises. The scenes where the two juggernaut actors are face-to-face are tense and electrifying.
The thieves essentially have all the money they need, but a new score arises that is too good to resist. McCauley's own policy is never to get involved in anything the can't drop within 30 seconds flat. But through the course of the movie, he falls in love with Eady (Amy Brenneman). When the police close in, will McCauley be true to his creed?
