So yesterday I watched Michael Mann's Heat.
The movie revolves aruond "couples", as in the sense of two people complimenting each other by fulfilling the voids of the partner. Lt. Vicent Hanna (Al Pacino) and bank-robber Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro) complete each other in a rather strange way. One cannot exist without the other and both shared a strong bond in that they belong to a world nobody but them understands at it's fullest extent. It quite reminded me of the relationship Batman and The Joker.
Other than the chemistry between Mr. Pacino and De Niro, the rest of the cast did a great job on their own regard. The clever directing by Michael, where he switches between the many storylines quickly and effortlessly, but also logically and fluidly is worth a praise. Each scene leaves its own, unmistakable impression, and each scene of each storyline builds upon the previous.
Go see it if you haven't.
