Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Movie_Savage Love it or loathe it, ridicule it, or (like me) be a lifelong fan of "Miami Vice"... this is the show which defined the 80s like few other cultural phenomena of its time.I am currently in the process of, well, binge-watching as they now call it, the five-season complete box set, from beginning to end. And I have to say that "Vice", even if you've seen practically every episode, is still always a time capsule of the good old days that is without comparison. Even after the tenth time that you've watched certain episodes, even if you've memorized most of the dialogues, you can't escape the pull of Miami Vice. It draws you in, into the world of 80s cool and chic, with all the clothes, cars, music, and (on- and off screen) high rollers of the day.The 80s never looked this sleek, this glitzy and fancy before, and certainly never again. Many crime dramas and other types of TV fiction in the 80s deserve a rightful place in the chapter of pop culture that was the decade. From Magnum P.I. to the A Team, or even Dallas, even Dynasty by some measure. But none of them quite had what "Miami Vice" so groundbreakingly exploded onto TV screens with when it first aired in 1984. I wasn't even a teenager yet at the time, but I remember from watching the first few episodes (on a black and white 12-inch TV in my bedroom, no less) that this show was just in a class of its own. Even on a dinky black and white screen. Stunning scenery, a style of filming that was just unseen and unheard of on television, and actually, pretty terrific storytelling, although that is often considered a weak point of the show.What's true enough is that the whole package began to come apart at the seams somewhere midway into season 3. Most TV shows have inevitably, and therefore forgivably used up most of their best story lines after the first few seasons and then gradually just stay in it to milk the franchise that has been created. But Miami Vice, once the greatest thing since color TV, really started taking a nosedive from that point. The gradual departure of the show's original personnel, including most unfortunately Michael Mann, was sorely felt. Initially, the darker, grittier feel of season 3 was not such a bad thing. Even in the absence of all the lightheartedness of seasons one and two, some episodes had quite outstanding story lines and were beautifully shot. And that even though a closed-cabin sports coupé like the Ferrari Testarossa never quite felt right as a replacement for a convertible like the Daytona... in tropical southern Florida.Missing the point that viewers weren't turning away because of the earth tones used in the visuals of season three but by a deteriorating quality of the aforementioned whole package, season four saw a return to pastels, but a departure from everything else that had made the show such a success. Desperately attempting to regain its former splendor, season five wasn't all that bad, but on the bottom line, it was a different show done by different people. The saddest part was perhaps that production values were visibly cut back. From scrimpingly outfitted action scenes to scenes supposedly shot in third world countries but which just screamed Universal Studios back lot, and for which they didn't even, like before, bother sending a camera crew to some two-shed town in rural Florida anymore. A fate which similarly befell shows like Dallas in their latter years, by the way.Saying that all this was Dick Wolf's fault for running the show into the ground when he took over creative control of Miami Vice would be looking back in anger. What is sad though is that quite likely, Miami Vice would have just had to stick with its self-invented formula from seasons one and two and could have perpetuated that "package" well into the 1990s, after all a decade during which hedonism and conspicuous and often illicit wealth only just began to go full throttle. The bitter irony is that a show which had clothes fashion, as well as music, car, lifestyle an even gun and power boat fashions so deeply ingrained in its own DNA ultimately proved to be a fashion fad in and of itself.Still, if you ask anybody what they remember most vividly about 80s culture, or what their image of 80s culture is, somewhere between the mention of (literally) brick sized cell phones, hedonistic yuppies, shoulder pads and hair metal, the words "Miami Vice" will come up as one of the defining moments of 80s pop culture. And that is something that can never be taken away. Not from the creators of the show, not from its actors, and certainly not from the fans who still worship 80s culture.

Yiannis-T this is the best TV series of all time.it should be ranked 10/10.Probably it's because people who are giving rates here hasn't seen it when it was originally aired.What can i tell about Miami Vice.The style was absolute 80's style,the cars were super,the action was superb,the girls were beautiful,the music was definitely 80's.Action,Love stories,car chases,fights,partnerships,amazing places!What else would you want?The detectives of Miami Vice police department were fighting against smugglers,drug dealers,thugs and more and they were successful.Every episode it's different and takes you to the originality of the 80's era.It's nothing like the today's shows.This is the original,this is the best and all the actors were great!If someone hadn't seen it should watch it and won't be disappointed.Miami Vice made a mark to the TV series!

jcbutthead86 Miami Vice is one of the greatest television shows of all-time,an excellent,stylish and unforgettable classic that has a wonderful direction,a terrific cast,thrilling Action and a iconic theme song. All of those combinations make Miami Vice an incredible Cop series,one of my favorite TV shows and one of the finest television shows of the 1980s.Set in Miami,Florida during the 1980s Miami Vice is about the adventure and thrill ride of Vice Cops and partners James 'Sonny' Crockett(Don Johnson)and Richard 'Rico' Tubbs(Phillip Michael Thomas)as the two try to capture and bust drug dealers,killers and other various criminals in the city of Miami.Miami Vice is a brilliant and unforgettable TV show that right from it's memorable theme song and intro grabs you by the throat and never lets go. Executive Produced by Michael Mann and created by Anthony Yerkovich,Miami Vice is a television show that for 5 seasons and 111 episodes that is stylish and gritty,colorful and vibrant as well as intense and thrilling giving viewers one of the most iconic shows of the 1980s. Miami Vice is show that even after it went off the air in 1989 is still popular thanks to Home Video,DVD and reruns on television and gaining more and more fans each year. When Miami Vice debuted in 1984 it came out at the right place at the right time because there were tons of successful Cop shows before but with Miami Vice there was something fresh and new because the show combined the substance of a gritty Cop show with the style of an MTV Music video. With the Cop show side there is interesting characters and a great story that is told in 60 minutes and with the MTV style there is music all around and everything goes by at a fast pace with rapid cuts and quick editing with neon colors,lighting and slick visuals making the show amazing to look at with hit songs that guide some of the scenes on the show. Miami Vice's style was groundbreaking at the time and has been imitated by most Cop shows that came after it but has never been duplicated. What I also love about Miami Vice is that it's also a great time capsule that truly defines the 1980s not just in the music but with the city of Miami and the clothes because we see Miami as a fun and exciting place that is beautiful and sunny during the day and very sexy and seductive at night. With the costumes Crockett,Tubbs and other characters dress in bright colors white,pink and blue making not only the cops but also the criminals look flashy. Despite the flashy and bright look of Miami Vice there are some episodes that remind viewers that there is still darkness because of the violence and death that is in the air. The Action scenes on Miami Vice are very simple but well done and thrilling with tons of gunfights that matches the shows tone and spirit. Miami Vice also features actors and actresses who guessed starred on the show and later became famous such as Bruce Willis,Julia Roberts,Liam Neeson,Laurence Fishburne,Wesley Snipes,Bill Paxton,Viggo Mortensen,Ed O'Neill,Dennis Farina,Ben Stiller,John Leguizamo,Chris Rock,David Strathaim,Stanley Tucci,Jimmy Smits,Bruce McGill,Annette Bening,John Turturro,Luis Guzman,Kyra Sedgwick,Ving Rhames,Lou Diamond Phillips and Melanie Griffin just to name a few. What else can be said about Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs? The duo are among the most iconic and unforgettable characters in the history of Television and rank with the best Cop duos such as Riggs and Murtaugh in the Lethal Weapon film series. With Crockett and Tubbs we follow these two as they try to bust criminals and crime figures on the mean streets of Miami and while doing that for 5 seasons we get an examination of the partnership and friendship of Crockett and Tubbs and discovering that while they both clash with one another the two still have each others back and care for one another not only as partners but as friends. Crockett and Tubbs are powerful characters that you will never forget and when you think Miami Vice you will think of Crockett and Tubbs. The ending in the final episode of Miami Vice is great because the final scene brings the show full circle for Crockett and Tubbs going all the way back to the first episode telling viewers that while this is a conclusion there is always a new beginning. A wonderful ending to a great series.The cast is great. Don Johnson and Phillip Michael Thomas are excellent and unforgettable as Detective Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs with Johnson and Thomas bringing intensity and emotional depth to their roles. Saundra Santiago and Olivia Brown are wonderful and sexy as Detectives Gina and Trudy,female cops. Michael Talbott and John Diehl are terrific and funny as Detective Switek and Zito cops who are partners and friends who work together. Edward James Olmos is outstanding as Lieutenant Castillo,a mysterious and quiet Cop.The direction on Miami Vice is terrific and stylish with great angles and camera movements that give the show an atmospheric look. Great direction.The theme song by Jon Hammer is amazing,memorable and one of the greatest TV theme songs of all-time and sets the tone for the show right away. A classic TV theme song from Hammer.In final word,if you love Cop shows or Television in general,I highly suggest you see Miami Vice,one of the greatest Television shows of all-time and a classic that you will never forget. Highly Recommended. 10/10.

VictorianCushionCat Miami Vice was the defining show of the 1980s that thanks to be being so far ahead of it's day, still does not look dated today. It works so well combining a good mix and background of characters, fast cars, shootouts, exotic locations, you name it, for escapist thrills Miami Vice had it all.The suits, boats and cars provided to blend undercover with the opulent South Florida underworld provided the fun and glamour, but at the core, the team were completely straight and ultimately were dedicated to putting away the variety of bad guys they had to deal with.Crockett and Tubbs were the coolest guys on the box, and still are, well supported by sexy Gina and Trudy, and the lighter touch of Switek and Zito. Undoubtedly the performance of the show was from Edward James Olmos as 'man of few words' Lt Castillo.True there were some episodes (especially in later series) that were a bit hard to follow or just plain insane. But mostly the fix of sheer style and a ripping pace, spot on soundtrack, and the obligatory shoot out at the end, unusually killing the villain of the week, made for a top notch 40 minutes.
