Hill's muscular, energetic direction makes what might have been just another buddy-cop thriller into an electrifying piece of escapism. One of Arnold's most underrated flicks.February 09, 2006
Surface stuff, moderately contemptuous, but entertaining enough.June 27, 2011
It might never be remembered as a great film - or even as a great Schwarzenegger film - but it's a great slice of nostalgia.May 27, 2004
This thing was a dud in the 80s. That's saying something.November 29, 2009
...a plodding, downright generic buddy-cop thriller that's simply unable to sustain the viewer's interest for more than a few minutes at a time.July 06, 2010
Schwarzenegger, who when he dons a green suit is dubbed 'Gumby' by Belushi, is right on target with his characterization of the iron-willed soldier, and Belushi proves a quicksilver foil.May 20, 2003
''Red Heat'' is a topically entertaining variation on the sort of action-adventure nonsense that plays best on television.April 03, 2008
Went hotly down my throat like a shot of vodka with a donut to appease this big hunger pang I suddenly had for junk Commie things.September 03, 2002
Hill's confidence keeps the formulaic buddy-cop cliches entertaining.January 01, 2000
"Red Heat" is not the first movie about a couple of very different cops, and it will not be the last, but as the formula goes this is a superior example.September 10, 2002
Walter Hill's direction's real cool, and the photography is beautiful. The film is also pretty funny. The leads are great.January 01, 2000
Right off the assembly line.
