Heat Shoot-Out

submitted by Zifnab

1 decade 7 years 7 months 3 weeks ago

The central shoot-out from Michael Mann's 1995 film Heat. A great scene from a very under-rated movie.

The central shoot-out was supervised by former British SAS sergeant Andy McNab. Microphones were placed properly to allow a realistic echo-effect on the gunshot sounds given that the shoot-out sequence takes place in the midst of tall buildings.

A little bit of trivia that I always bring up with this scene (from answers.com):

Val Kilmer states on the special edition DVD (in the making of featurette) that soldiers in the military are shown the bank robbery scene, with emphasis placed upon the scene where Kilmer's character fires on the police, performs a swift and smooth reload, and resumes firing. Supposedly they say something along the lines of, "If you can't change magazines as fast as this actor, get out of my army!"

Nice piece of info there Slimepuppy, I had not heard that before.

Ah, bugger, it cut off before it got to Tom Sizemore getting got.

This is exactly why I like this scene. I'm glad it gets some appreciation

It's easy to pull a trigger
