Heat is a masterpiece from Michael Mann. The draw of Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino as on-screen opposites should be enough of a draw, but the movie has it all. Incredible supporting cast, nuanced story, and stunning sound enveloped in a moody LA background. Now remastered, this movie should be a staple in any collection.

I love everything about this Tom Hanks instant classic. This film is such a treat, giving a fun, creative, touching look at growing up. And what more can be said about the iconic piano scene with Robert Loggia in FAO Schwartz. Hanks disappears into his big kid role. The rest of the cast is great too, with a charmingly cute Elizabeth Perkins and an underrated John Heard anchoring the classic 80s executive blowhard. This movie speaks to both the young and old. Get it and have fun!

This movie is epic. Creative, unique, impeccably acted and executed, this movie should be a staple in anyone's movie catalog. Bryan Singer shows off his directorial chops by weaving together an intricate, thinking man's crime/detective story beautifully, culminating in what is now an iconic ending. Get it now!

What can be said about LA Confidential -- an instant classic! The cast, acting, sets, story are all superb. Don't hesitate to fall in love with 1950's LA!
