    Don't forget that the director thought the sound effects that the studio put on top of it was trash, so he had them change it back to the originally recorded audio of the blanks. That's why the sound echos like it does, it's the actual on location sound rather than some tacked on fake shit.

        HEAT forces you to sit through almost 3 hours for about as many worthwhile scenes. An edit with 60 minutes of extraneous bullshit (like the whole mess with Pacino and his daughter) cut out *might* be worth the effort, though.

      I think it's highly underrated, but easy to overrate. The shot count outside the clinic tells more than actually showing the gun play. I really liked the trophy wife lurking, that was spot on. The voice over monologue, usually a technique to bring up a shit movie, works perfectly in this case. The explaination of how to play Hearts and Juliette Lewis' response was classic. And it was nice to see her opposite her father, but never in the same scene. Lines like
      >karma is justice, but without the satisfaction
      Are so much better than overused tropes by Sun Tzu. And there are so many more quotables, if you can dig my matriculations, baby.

      The film plods along with the weird relationship scenes between Pachino and his literally-who-cares girlfriend. I know it was to add a depth to his character but let's be real, it bogged down the pacing immensely

            You do,understand the idea of being dominant,and suppressing your opposition?
            To do so,you have to see where they are,what is going on,where they are moving to.
            It’s known as situational awareness,specifically for this situation,battlespace appreciation.
            They are cornered,trapped.
            They have to extract as fast as possible.
            To do so,they have to suppress the LAPD.
            That’s what they did,and tried to do.
            They had limited ammunition.
            Attack is the best form of defense,which they did.

    Not "The most realistic" but I also fricking love this gunfight. It starts a bit bland a la "point prop guns at enemies while screaming screaming" hollywood levels but only gets better once they get outof the stairwell.
    The suppressed HK416 also just sounds hella satisfying.

    My favorite movie gunfight that is ultra realistic is the airport scene in John Wick 2

        Even today,those sequences are still recognised as some of the better,if not some of the best ever,put to screen.
        How was this done?
        Miniature microphones placed around and inside the vehicles.
        You missed the graunched gears in the BMW then?

              No, your movie is just moronic and you are as well.

              The people who finance it are the people who decide it should continue to be illegal

    > makes people who expect realistic shootouts lasting a minute or more to mainly involve bullets intended to hit a specific person seethe because they sat through a 3 hour movie for that
    I’m fairly sure they kill about a half dozen cops in this shootout, though only 2 are shown on screen. I’ve never heard anyone complain about the shootout, either (but I think it was stupid that they don’t put on masks until after they get in to the bank).

      >stupid that they don’t put on masks until
      >after they get into the bank
      Reason they didn’t is because the idea was to take the bank from inside; walking into the bank with masks already on gives security a few seconds warning.
      Don’t forget,the bank was their last ‘big one’ before disappearing completely,even from each other,as agreed earlier in the movie.
      Wether they were recognised or not would make no difference,hence the speed at extracting from the robbery,then within hours disappearing.
