Heat

I was surprised by this movie.

I remember my dad watching it when I was a kid but I never looked into watching it until it was on tonight.

And I liked it.

The basic storyline comes down to Burt Reynolds going after the guys that beat up his friend... seems simple enough but it's full of issues like he's a gambler with no money that gets hired to teach a rich guy how not to be scared in a fight.

I thought... details and it turns out it's a William Goldman written script. He's king of stories.

It's eighties violence and good story. Thrown off by bad sales pitch with had me overlooking it.
