Review of Miami Vice (2006) by Tonyo. — 05 Aug 2006
Much, much better than I expected. Understated performances, emotionally satisfying storyline, great action sequences (but not too many of them, thank god! I am getting very sick of endless explosions in every movie).
Jamie Foxx once more shows himself to be best actor around at present, and Colin Farrell is pretty good as well. Gong Li is terrific in her first English speaking role. The romance with Farrell really works.
The baddies are also terrifying in their malevolence and believability. And the scenes in Cuba are terrific. Overall, a better film than Heat, and nearly as good as Collateral.
