Movie Reviews of Miami Vice - Season One
Movie Review: Miami Vice Exceptionally Nice
Summary: 5 Stars
Since I am old school 80s fan i say this to those that are the same. Your collection will never be complete unless you have all 5 seasons of Miami Vice. Aside from the cool music, clothes, story line and the beautiful Tessarosa. A lot of the cases they worked on gave me the chills. Now that I am a little older and have a much better understanding of the show's plot (i was barely three when it first came out in '84).
I felt bad for Tubbs alot in the show cause everytime he found a woman he really cared about they always got killed I mean once is bad enough but if remember correctly it happened four times. Geeze bad luck is a...well Crocket didn't have any easier. Being the extremly sensual divorced man who seemed to forever be in the Internal Affairs hot seat, new wife getting shot on stage in front of him and losing his memory while undercover on a sting operation talk about deep. I also enjoyed seeing how some of today's renowned actors in bit parts that got them noticed as well.
I liked how the show focused on two cops decent cops and their hardships from both sides of the badge. Including the anxiety detrminination of days worked on end.
Then there was Gina Calabreezy, Trudy Joplin, Sweitech & Zito's situations as well. Gina being raped three times while undercover got old.
The heinously clever criminals, crazy informants like Izzy and The Nuge Man,The shrewd ice man supervisor of few words wrapped it in a pretty bomb and boom. You got one raunchy intrigue after another.
Summary of Miami Vice - Season One
The adventures of two vice squad detectives of the Miami police department.Genre: Television
Rating: NR
Release Date: 8-FEB-2005
Media Type: DVD
To hear the opening beats of Jan Hammer's percussive, propulsive Miami Vice theme is to be instantly transported back to 1984. But this groundbreaking series, with its cinematic sensibility, cool clothes, and killer soundtrack is no mere blast from the past. It still rocks. This three-disc set would be worthless if it didn't. Music was an integral part of Miami Vice's hip vibe. The soundtrack propelled the stories and established the mood like no series before it. So the first thing you want to know is: Have the music rights been secured for this DVD release? In the pilot episode, does Phil Collins's "In the Air Tonight" still play ominously as vice undercover cops Crockett and Tubbs speed toward a bust? Does Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight" serenade Sonny and Gina on his boat in the episode "One-Eyed Jack?" And what would the benchmark episode, "Smuggler's Blues" be without Glenn Frey's instant classic? From the Rolling Stones on a boombox to Elvis Presley singing "Rubberneckin'" on a TV, Vice's cutting-edge soundtrack has been preserved and honed in 5.1 surround sound glory.
Miami Vice made stars out of Don Johnson, Philip Michael Thomas, and Edward James Olmos, who won an Emmy as the intense, taciturn Lt. Castillo (watching him bust some martial arts moves in "Golden Triangle" is like Yoda cutting lose in Attack of the Clones), but the first season also offers time-capsule glimpses of actors on the cusp of stardom, including a pre-L.A. Law Jimmy Smits in the pilot, a pre-Crime Story Dennis Farina in "One-Eyed Jack," and a pre-Moonlighting Bruce Willis in "No Exit." Miami Vice put a neon sheen on cop-show convention. Its fashion sense (pastel suits, no belt, no socks), and the brilliantly employed freeze frames are still arresting. Miami Vice was a TV watershed, and this DVD set does it full justice. --Donald Liebenson
