Perfect thriller, up there with No Country as the best thriller.

It feels like every girl in the world is going to see that and going crazy about SITC all over again. And then they all tell me about it or put something on Facebook about it.

I just hope they won't all be putting the theme as a ringtone once more.

What was so thrilling about it? It never felt tense for me, more like an action movie in my mind...

Cat and mouse, when I knew the end was coming, I was on the edge of my seat. Up there with No Country as the best thriller I've seen in my mind. Unless I'm forgetting some.

HEAT is too slow to me. Maybe it's that Michael Mann's permanent obsession for making police movies with the aesthetics of a perfume advertisement. But despite that, I have to recognize that the shooting scene after the bank robbery is epic.

The Usual Suspects
The Prestige
American Psycho
Collateral
Training Day


I'd call all of those "Thriller" and prefer each of them to either Heat or No Country. No Country was better than Heat though...

You prefer Collateral over Heat? Really? I enjoyed it but it wasn't great. I think Heat is up there with American Psycho if not better, I honestly think Heat is a brilliant film. Really surprised that someone could watch it and by the end not being right on the edge of their seat.

Training Day was okay I suppose but in my eyes doesn't hold a shadow to Heat and The Prestige isn't anywhere near Heat, even though it's a good film. You know what you're getting with Nolan, I hope Inception will be everything I think it'll be, and The Usual Suspects is a bit overrated despite it still being a damn good film.

Heat needed a twist. And to be about 30 minutes shorter.

Collateral was just simply badass. Sames goes with Training Day and American Psycho.

The Usual Suspects and The Prestige are up there for their twists...

Heat didn't need a twist, the lack of twists compensates for the running time. Because it made it obvious what was going to happen, and there was only 2 things that could happen... Good guy wins, or the bad guy gets away. (Usual Suspects.)

Collateral gave me slightly more respect for Cruise, and was decent. But Heat is in a league of its own.

And yeah, both good films, lots of twists and turns.
