Review of Miami Vice (2006) by Samuel H — 11 Oct 2011
Two Miami detectives go undercover and get into the transportation of drugs in and out of Miami. Colin Farrell's character develops a relationship with one of the leaders of the crime syndicate, a woman named Isabelle.
The acting isn't great, but not bad either. I found some scenes dragging on for a long time, and I think several scenes could've been cut out, dropping it from 2 hours and 13 minutes to an hour and 45 minutes or so.
Those are the problems. It's filmed so well, by the one and only Michael Mann, director of great movies such as Collateral and Heat. The quality of gunfights and sounds reflect his other movies. There's plenty of women, great music, colors, boats, cars, and sights.
.. and there are plenty of badass scenes. Ultimately, Miami Vice is a pretty good action drama that shouldn't be missed by any fan of Michael Mann's.
