This movie is fine the story is just very mid the most fun part is the one liners from Arnold Schwarzenegger the best one for me was someone asked “what do you do for stress in the Soviet Union” Arnold says “vodka” so funny and stupid at the same time the chemistry between Arnold and James belushi is fine some funny moments but this is for me a 3 star

“Oh, come on, everybody knows the .44 Magnum is the big boy on the block. Why do you think Dirty Harry uses it?“

Red Heat is a very dumb, very fun buddy cop movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jim Belushi as an unlikely duo. It’s not an amazing movie, but I had a really good time with this, lots of fun, and the two leads have, somewhat surprisingly to me, great chemistry.
