I re-watched Miami Vice. I know I'm probably in the minority, but I think its one of the best films Michael Mann has ever done. I think people were hung up on the brand, when for that time Period it worked. But Michael Mann was trying to give you a realistic look at the life of Undercover DEA Agents and the criminal Underworld.
The only critique I have is the relationship between FOXX and FARREL was too frosty. You never got a sense that they were close or they would die for another. I feel that one relationship you see in the TV series, but not the movie. I liked he took a realistic approach to this movie.
I think if this movie was called anything else but MIAMI VICE, it would have been more popular. As the realism and the atmosphere was great. And i loved the ACTION SCENES. But I do think the DVD cut is much better than the theatrical version.
