I cannot stand Collin Ferrel. I hate the guy. All 4 foot 3 inches of him. But MM writing and directing means I have see the film.

I just hope and pray this film is not PG-13.



Death to PG-13! And now death to DVNR too!!

All films thus far in Michael Mann's career are rated R. So no worries there, I hope.



Body of Lies / Ridley Scott / Leo DiCaprio / Russell Crowe / Autumn '08

I knew Sonny Crockett, Sonny Crockett was a friend of mine and Colin Ferrel is no Sonny Crockett.

everyone in the theater I was in laughed and scoffed at the idea and some booed.

I don't think this will do well. It is just too.....cheesey. And I loved Miami Vice growing up.





Lo, there do I see my mother, and my sisters, and my brothers, Lo, there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning, Lo, they do call to me, they bid me take my place among them, In the halls of Valhalla,where the brave may live...

I understand why the idea of a Miami Vice film might get some responses like this. I mean, it sounds like something that would appear as a joke in another movie (like the T.J. Hooker: The Movie gag that was in Charlie's Angels). However, Michael Mann's name attached as writer and director has lifted this above the ranks of SWAT and The Dukes of Hazzard movies to something that could be pretty damn good. I have yet to be disappointed in one of his films so far, and even the somewhat questionable casting could be forgotten if Vice is half as enentertaining and well made as his other films.

I don't know what the booing was about, but the laughing is understandable. My friend laughed when I told him the Miami Vice trailer had me excited. As awareness goes up I don't think that attitude will stick around. Some of it could have been affectionate, too.

As a massive fan of Heat and Collateral, I already know I'll love this film. Saw the trailer in front of King Kong.
