Miami Vice

I remember when Miami Vice first came to the theatres, audiences were torn on whether they liked it or not, more people it seemed, were less than impressed. I was not one of these people.

I loved everything except for Gong Li she unfortunately is an actress who just doesn't do it for me (she was fine in Red Sorghum).

I feel that Colin Farrell pulls off the character well, his Stache and Mullet are fantastic! Jamie Fox does and excellent job of portraying his opposite and making sure Farrell does not upstage him.

The Soundtrack was spectacular, especially Nonpoints' version of "In The Air Tonight" (originally Phil Collins). Moby is always good for soundtracks.

My biggest praises go to Michael Mann, Dion Beebe, William Goldenberg and Paul Rubell. The shots and editing where quick and sharp, the final shoot out gruesome, including blood spattered lenses, nothing was left out, the gore and the camera work in the action sequences was to die for.

Miami Vice, was exactly as it should have been, with an exception to technology, it felt 80's-tastic.
