Never bet against a man with a killer hand
This week's action-junkie release is a remake of the 1986 film Heat which starred Burt Reynolds. Our hero is a Las Vegas bodyguard with lethal professional skills and a personal gambling problem. When a friend is beaten by a sadistic thug, he strikes back, only to find out the thug is the son of a powerful mob boss. Suddenly he is plunged into the criminal underworld, chased by enforcers and wanted by the mob. Having raised the stakes, he has one last play to change his fortunes, and this time, it's all or nothing.
