yep it's my favorite crime film of all time.... I think i might even enjoy it more than the mafia classics like Goodfellas, Godfather etc. even though I recognize though are probably greater films..as much as I love those films, Heat is one of the few movies that i can always watch whenever it's on

Hollander, what are your views on Mann's debut film Thief?
