These two both feature Robert De Niro as the lead experienced bad guy
and each has a lot of carnage laden gunfights. In each De Niro bonds with another bad guy who gets killed toward the end. Although "Ronin" was written largely by an uncredited David Mamet it has little plot so "Heat" comes out as the more literate film. But in "Ronin", master director Frankenheimer captures a wonderful sense of place in the large and small French cities and ountryside. "Heat" also features relationships with women, all three of whom would like their men to stop being obsessed with their work, be it crime or law enforcement. Aside from the Irish Deidre there are no strong female leads in "Ronin".I watched these two just by chance on consecutive nights abd enjoyed them even more this second time around.
