    Heat was awesome. That bank robbery scene just doesn't get any better.

    Saw Heat 3 times, because of that scene.
    For me, not just the best action film but the best film full stop is Terminator 2.
    Love that film, also Aliens is very close behind,basically almost everything James Cameron does, even Titanic had it's moments.

    While interviewing prospective assassins for the killing of the Sheriff:

    Questioner: "Well, what are your qualifications?"

    Criminal: "Rape, murder, kidnapping, armed robbery and rape."

    Questioner: "You said rape twice."

    Criminal: " I LIKE rape."

    yeah, the yanks were pretty racist towards the Chinese back then, typecasting them with buck teeth and penny glasses. It was mainly down to Bruce Lee that changed the attitude of a nation. A quite remarkable man.

    Trying to think of movies where the original was better than the re-makes.....

    Must admit i can't think of to many, as the special effects etc. always seems to make the re-makes better..

    Except one.....The Italian job, original is best..

    Sure there is more.

    The Wicker Man - the re-make was bloody God awful, Nicolas Cage should hang his head in shame.

    I prefer my action movies that are reflecting reality ..to actually look authentic i thought maching gun fest in heat was poor in this respect......look at the D day landing scene in saving private ryan .....this is as close to reality as any film can get.....in my opinion
