Frans B @FransB Jul 15 Not much of a plot. Wooden and vague writing. Pitiful "acting" by whole cast. No direction whatsoever. A farrago at best See more Robert J @RT92737870 12/19/2024 The 1986 "Heat" is good Movie. I like Burt Reynolds role as down on his luck las vegas gambler with some special skills. His survival & military skills allows him to make a living as body gaurd . His skills also allows him to walk on the dark side as a vegas problem solver. See more 10/27/2021 Burt Reynolds is Nick Escalante aka The Worlds Most Dangerous Man and what does TWMDM do? he works as a detective for hire willing to cross the line if the cause is just. this film is a 80s action gem. it reminds me of what i thought grownups were when i was a kid in the 80s observing the old timers(WWII generation) & being impressed by how tough they were. the nostalgia points were high seeing a Las Vegas that doesn't exist anymore & a generation of ppl that are dying off. bc of this i like it better in 2021 than 1988. See more 09/18/2017 It's the '80s, there's action, there's Burt Reynolds. Think I like it. See more 05/19/2015 I couldn't remember for sure if I'd ever seen this Burt Reynolds vehicle before or not, but after the opening scene I realized I had seen it before. However, after competing my rewetting of the film, I now realize why I didn't remember the film. It's a completely forgettable crime flick. Burt is a PI/Bagman/Fixer of sorts who helps a hooker get revenge on a sleepy rich guy and also helps another rich guy toughen up. That set up isn't terrible, but the film unfolds in a meandering fashion that's completely uninteresting and seems to go nowhere, which is a surprise since the film was written by the great William Goldman who wrote such classics as "Marathon Man," "Misery" and "The Princess Bride." The film is mostly disappointing because I do think it had the potential to be a strong vehicle for Burt. See more 04/03/2014 When considering camp classic material you have to throw out the rules and just accept what is truly the most awesome. Just based on one of the most classic death scenes in history involving a light bulb, the merit of this awesome movie stands above. That it was meant to be serious defines its camp value. If you don't love it, it's probably YOU that is lame. See more Read all reviews
