Miami Vice

Miami Vice (Unrated Director's Edition) [Blu-ray]
$29.98
Michael Mann's "Miami Vice" is a dark and moody thriller which is only vaguely related to the TV show of the same name. Colin Farrell (Sonny) and Jamie Foxx (Rico) star in this exotic film which is filmed in a harsh grainy manner that accentuates the rough and seedy world depicted. As with "Collateral" this film was mostly filmed with a Thomson Viper Filmstream Camera with the rest filmed on Super 35mm.

Like other movies Mann has directed, such as "Heat" or "Collateral", we are dragged into the dark and dangerous places of the crime underworld. In "Miami Vice" we are taken from the bright beaches of Miami to deep within the heart of darkness of the South American drug world. I was impressed with the overall pace, and tone of this film. The movie oscillates between the wide bright expanses of the Miami coast during the day, and constricts into the narrow crowded shipyards, canals, and trailer parks at night. Like a boa constrictor this movie is constantly coiling and uncoiling as it snuffs out its victims one by one.

Miami Vice: Season Five
$59.98
The first four seasons are just classic, must have. This season, after reading the reviews I would agree, it is a disappointment. I bought it for one reason, completeness.

The season starts off following the Burnett line, where season 4 left off. What the producers should've done is continued this track for more episodes. It falls off rather quickly and then goes downhill from there. While some episodes have redeeming value, there are others where the writers should have been shot. Yeah, that's rather harsh. But it is reprehensible to treat such good characters in so bad a way. Sonny's sharp clothes? Traded in for ripped jeans. Ugh...

They should have canceled the series after season 4 and ended the Burnett plot line with a made-for-TV movie instead.

Enjoyed the flick, just dissapointed that some tracks heard througout the movie are ommitted and others added.

Can anyone tell me the name /title of the track playing after patti labelle's song during the credits at the end of the film ? Please !!!!! Its an instrumental track. And a haunting sounding melody.

I would appreciate it.
