Very much susprised by this movie - Ziegler
Positive: Very nice cinematography, great acting by the entire cast esp. the interplay between hero and villain. Nice look at the drug trade. Mann made it as realistic as possible. Very nice audio commenatary on the DVD. Excellent adaptation of the TV show.
Negative: Well the movie can be unrealistic at times.
Conclusion: I can tell you right now that I AM NOT a fan of the TV show and hardly watched it but this movie is great and much better and more realistic than the 1980s show. Great stuff.A great action movie - Audentia
I don't know what movie others who have negative reviews about Miami Vice were watching, but it wasn't the same one I did it seems. I love this movie.
From the upbeat club to the action in boats to the final shootout. There is steamy romance in the middle and lots of tension.
I love that this movie doesn't feel like the 80's. It feels like today, which is as it should be. This is no Don Johnson in his white pants, and that's a good thing.
The use of music in this movie is truly amazing to create tension and emphasis gun shots when it should. A+ in my books.A classic remade the Michael Mann way - HaroonA
Contrary to mostly negative reviews of this movie, I thoroughly enjoyed its visceral Blu-ray iteration. The video was brilliantly sharp, the cinematography was exceptionally displayed in the almost hand-held style filming of the movie. At times there was excessive grain in the video, but I'm sure it was intentional and was mostly beneficial to the style of the movie.
The movie itself was slightly convoluted, the plot ran deep with plenty of factions involved which at times was very confusing. However the conclusion was executed with plenty of style and substance. The choice of music to accompany the end would definitely ring familiar to fans of the TV series... hearing Phil Collins - In The Air Tonite really made the movie for me. Classic Miami Vice. Nicely done Mann.
