He follows a drug dealer from Moscow to Chicago, where he's matched up with city cop Art Ridzik (James Belushi), whose work ethic is considerably more relaxed. Most of the humor revolves around Danko's grumpy reaction to good ol' American capitalism, while Ridzik urges him to chill out. Red Heat is not bad as action comedies go, but only if you get into the absurd spirit of this predictable fare, in which the unlikely buddies get to wisecrack and act casually while mayhem erupts everywhere they go. Incidentally, Red Heat was the first American film allowed to shoot in Moscow's Red Square. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Red heatGotta see this movie now.Rated R for graphic violence,nudity,language,and drug use. . Rating: - Can I give it 8 stars? Please? Come on! I'm begging you! This is among the best Arnold movies I've ever seen. It goes like this-a tough and disciplined Russian Detective named Ivan Danko(Schwarzengger)and a fearless but undisciplined cop named Art(James Belushi)are on the trail of an evil and vicious serial killer named Viktor, who has killed Ivan's brother and terrozied all of Moscow and Chicago as well. There are not only wonderful fight scenes in this movie, but also a lot of humerous moments & some memorable lines. I give this movie a solid 10 ...

The contrast between the old Soviet Union and Chicago are striking. The USSR is clean, organized and oppressive while Chicago is dirty, chaotic and freewheeling. A great visual description of Communism vs. Capitalism. A big letdown to me was when I figured out the handcannon carried by Arnold was a Desert Eagle .50AE pistol. ...

The image is better and ALSO the sound. I don't know what Lions gate thought they were doing, but remastered? no. I compared both several times before writing this even though I only had to compare once. Might as well wait for a HD DVD to come out, this is a waste unless you want the additional features. Rating: - It was O.K.When Viktor (Ed O'Ross), a narcotics kingpin from the USSR, escapes from prison and heads for Chicago, Russia's brawniest, most fearless and most disciplined police detective (Arnold Schwarzenegger) follows Viktor to the Windy City and teams up with a loud-mouthed American cop (James Belushi). Together, the mismatched, culture-clashing, rule-breaking duo must overcome their differences and attempt to track down the nefarious Viktor. Browse for similar items by category:
