Sometimes new editions of movies appear either on crossover formats (DVD to Bluray) or on the same format (a new Bluray edition when one already exists). Most of these are unnecessary, and some are shameless attempts to fleece collectors. But this … this new edition of Heat is outstanding. I owned the previous Bluray and I'll gladly use that as a coaster now. As well as the second disc of extras, the new print of the film has breathtaking resolution. The blacks (night sky shots and things like hair and clothing) are really black, and not a washed out grey as per the previous print. Glass (windows, windscreens) really pop and gleam. If you love this film, get this. You won't be sorry you paid for it again.
