Consensus:
Miami Vice is beautifully shot but the lead characters lack the charisma of their TV series counterparts, and the underdeveloped story is well below the standards of Michael Mann's better films.

Synopsis: The cocaine cowboys of the '80s are gone, but Miami's Casablanca allure, the undercover cops and the attitudes of Michael Mann's culturally influential television series have been enhanced by time in the feature film version of Miami Vice.

[The punchy] theatrical opening... doesn't so much lead viewers into the film as it injects them.

The Foxx-Farrell pairing can best be summed up by the first real Crockett-Tubbs scene in the film: on the rooftop of a club, on the phone... having separate conversations. The two share the frame and the on-set air but nothing else.

Michael Mann seems to have set out to extricate everything that made the show fun and original.

Note for Michael Mann fans: A thrilling new director's edition on DVD has 20 minutes of new footage.

Miami Vice is stylish and slick. It visually smacks you in the head and makes you pay attention.
08/21/06
Like the show itself, as much as there is a ton of style on offer, there is little in the way of real substance

Were it not for its title, this plodding, tiresome mess would have never seen the light of day.
