Miami Vice - The Movie

Pros: comical, stylish, tense, brilliantly directed
Cons: some contrived scenes

Well this is the hour and a half pilot episode that launched the big 80's action cop show "Miami Vice" and all its streamlined cars, hawaian shirts, bodacious beach babes in bikinis, gangsters, designer stubble, all in snappy, colourful form that made it ...

Pros: Takes the Miami Vice TV show and turns it into a more serious drama.
Cons: Thick on silence, looking tough, not focused on action, character development much.

What do you get when you put together two actors who are regarded as not only capable actors, but also Oscar-worthy talent? You get a boring movie that tries to bring procedural dialog to the big screen, instead of thrilling you or holding your ...

Pros: good action movie
Cons: none to speak of

While not an award winning movie, this film will keep you interested in the plot. Based off the 80's series you can already guess what the film is about, so the suspense isnt gonna drive you to the theatre. The movie is good though and has plenty of action and some great special effects.

Starting off in a club scene and basically begining with a drink and a phone call, the action heats up pretty fast. Within the first fifteen minutes there is a really cool shootup scene where you have a view of the damage from inside the car. After a snitch gives up the feds and people get killed, tubbs and crockett set out to find the group of guys who have been ripping up the streets.

All in all this is a pretty good one. The action is great while the acting is good and believable. Definately doesnt look like there were any budget issues, as you will see. I wouldnt say this is one to take a date on, this is more of a movie to check out at home.
