MTV style and camera shots. This is a slick production with TV movie style action. Also when will they stop with the grainy look? Is this a lack of conveying subtance?I just did not care about anyone in the film, and why call it Miami Vice? Does it make it easier to sell? Yes it has some cool action sequences and Gong Li - well, just bless her for being in this movie, maybe we will see more of her because of the exposure she gets here and that is a good thing.
I agree it is better than Collateral - by a hair but I had hoped for better because I like Michael Mann. His style is unmistakable here but, where is the story?
Sorry to sound so negative and if all you want is to get out of the heat it was worth 4 bucks for me - by a hair as well. :^)
