An L.A. cop becomes fixated on a deadly thief and his crew who are wreaking havoc on the streets of the city.

I hate to condone the making of 3-hour long movies, but Heat is one in which you're not going to fall asleep.

Fourteen years after Heat brought Al Pacino and Robert De Niro together onscreen for the first time, a new edition comes to Blu-ray. But do you need it? De Niro plays McCauley, the head of a paramilitary-style robbery crew, with Val Kilmer and Tom Sizemore as his backup and Pacino as Hanna, the cop tracking them down.

This time they picked the wrong test subject! The Cuba Gooding Jr. direct-to-video train keeps on a-rolling. This time out we get a pseudo cyberpunk science fiction thriller complete with dark conspiracies and evil mega corporations.

What follows basically amounts to me copy/pasting an entire press release from Universal, for which I apologize.

Universal Studios has released synopses for some of their major 2010 films and the two that are especially worth reading are "MacGruber" and Ridley Scott's "Untitled Robin Hood Adventure". While it might surprise you to hear this, a few people have told me "MacGruber" is going to shock everyone next year as it's a super-violent, hard-R movie.
