Body Heat won't disappoint those who follow it with innocence. It's a movie made with a certain exuberance. [Full Review in Spanish] Full Review

Pure noir, which may force too much the final thought of Hurt's character - he's dumb, but he's still a lawyer - but that dazzles, never better, in each of its frames. [Full Review in Spanish] Full Review

...An engrossing, mightily stylish [film]....Luxuriant in superb craftsmanship...

Rating: 4/5 -- While Body Heat involves murder, fraud, a weak hero led astray and a seductive, double-dealing broad, it also incorporates something new: a sexual explicitness that the old films could only hint at.

There's no denying the narrative confidence that brings the film to its unfashionably certain double-whammy conclusion. Full Review

...It has a power that transcends its sources....BODY HEAT is good enough to make film noir play like we hadn't seen it before...

Product Description:

In this humid, atmospheric film noir, a sweltering summer in south Florida sets the stage for a dark romance between an attorney and a beautiful woman as they plot her wealthy husband's early demise. Mickey Rourke's debut as an arson expert on parole is convincing and the script by Kasdan is dazzlingly treacherous.

Description by Warner Home Video:

Body Heat: Deluxe Edition
William Hurt and Kathleen Turner strike sparks in Lawrence Kasdan's Body Heat, a sexy, haunting tale of desire and skullduggery that echoes 1940s film noirs but is charged with an energy and passion that could only flare in the '80s. Aided by a sultry John Barry score, Kasdan's assured directorial debut foreshadowed the emotional textures he would bring to later films The Big Chill, The Accidental Tourist and Grand Canyon. Sit back and bask in this contemporary classic's wicked warmth.
