I knew Lang wouldn't let me down. Compared to a lot of noirs of the same period, 'Heat' is downright brutal. The violence, although mainly suggested, is surprising for the time, same goes for the subject matter. Filled with great hard-nosed dialogue, a bit of excessive melodrama but, overall, an honest depiction of crime and revenge.

Excellent Lang Revenge Noir...Ford's Best Performance And Grahame Is The Quintessential Floozy With A Heart Of Gold...

The term 'gritty' could have been invented just for this film! For 1953, this is definitely a shocker, portraying violence as never before dared in Hollywood films. Class acting by Ford as the squeaky clean cop who is quickly turned into a revenge seeking, cold hearted vigilante, intent on bringing down the mobsters who killed his wife

The most violent and brutal noir I've seen from it's time. Fritz Lang is a great director and he really knows how to create a specific world. It reminded me of Blue Velvet at times. He perfectly can go from a sunny,happy film to a seedy and terrifying underworld of murderers, thugs, and "barfly's". The lead is great and we really get to see his inner turmoil at the things that happen to him. The standout is Gloria Grahame though. She's wowed me yet again in this movie(In a Lonely Place being the first). She brings this certain energy to the film that you don't even know it lacks until she pops up on screen. There's a lot of underlying themes going on especially Ford's blatant recklessness and that and many other things is what makes this a classic that should be more famous than it is.

A film about the duality of human nature.
