Schwarzenegger, who when he dons a green suit is dubbed 'Gumby' by Belushi, is right on target with his characterization of the iron-willed soldier, and Belushi proves a quicksilver foil.

Surface stuff, moderately contemptuous, but entertaining enough.
Geoff Andrew, Time Out

''Red Heat'' is a topically entertaining variation on the sort of action-adventure nonsense that plays best on television.
Vincent Canby, New York Times
Rotten
Right off the assembly line.

"Red Heat" is not the first movie about a couple of very different cops, and it will not be the last, but as the formula goes this is a superior example.
