Heat is fantastic, gets even better with repeated viewing as you know the story and can focus in on the incidental detail, the amazing dialogue etc.
In my top ten for sure. Despite the long running time, it doesn't leave you much respite or room to breathe. There's always something going on, and even if there isn't, there's a tension between characters that's palpable. It reminds me a bit of Ronin, which is another favourite.

Manhunter is also great, going to sound all up myself, but remember all the blue/grey light washing across me when I saw it on a big screen, must be best part of 30 years ago but remains an indelible memory
