Movie Reviews of Miami Vice - Season Three
Movie Review: A strong and emotional season overall
Summary: 5 Stars
Trudy does not get a whole lot to do this time, but Gina is featured, at least in the last episode, and the actress can sing as well.
Tubbs gets some strong storylines, and there is an ep. devoted to Castillo and some ghosts from his past.
The Vice team also loses one of its own, in one of the saddest and most memorable scenes.
But it's Sonny Crockett who suffers the most blows to his ego and his soul, with Internal Affairs trumping up charges against him, to a judge who jails him for not revealing an informant's name, to the death of said informant, to the storyline in which Crockett gets a man out of prison because he believes him to be innocent but then finds out, too late, that he was guilty all along; to two failed romances with women who turn out to be, respectively, a drug addict and a high-powered madame.
There are some great songs, as always, and Sonny's new Ferrari Testarossa is a thing of beauty.
Great season.
Movie Review: THE BEST SEASON?
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent season....To critics of the show who say it was not a gritty show then watch this season.....Excellent mix of grittiness and style..The show took on a much darker edge but did not stray from its roots......Don Johnson's clothes went from pastels and white sportcoats to mostly darker toned clothes, and the white Testarossa was introduced....Bye bye to Zito who was killed off midseason (no loss there)
Some episodes are truly classics (the opener with Jeff Fahey as a weapons distributor) the episode guest starring Lou Diamond Philipps as a cop, and a classic with John Glover as a former cop who is a surveillance sweeper (by the far funniest and least gritty episode of the season-straight out of a season 1 episode) Classic season..Only negative is Don Johnson's clothes are much more dated than in any other season....The white coats and pastels can still pass today, but the yellow shirts with blue sport coats look was out by 1988...
Movie Review: Miami Vice - Season 3
Summary: 5 Stars
Could this be the best season of all? Certainly that is a possibility. This season is a perfect example that made "Miami Vice" much more than just a cop show, this season raised many political issues and corruption issues as well. The troublespots of the world and Western government involvement with criminals often block the Vice team from doing their job, be it US mercenaries in Nicaragua, the Northern Ireland conflict, corrupt FBI agents or whatever else. Among the best episodes are "El Viejo" with Willie Nelson, "When Irish eyes are crying", "Walk alone", "Killshot", "Heroes of the revolution" and "Theresa" although every episode here is very good to standout. No episodes like "Florence, Italy", "The big thaw" or "Miracle man" in this season - only 100% Miami Vice at its best. If you are only to own one season, this is the one.Movie Review: THE GREATEST OF VICE IS NOW BETTER THAN EVER!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've only watched three episodes so far, but all I have to say is WOW!! The dvd picture and sound is perfect and millions of times better than the previous mediocre seasons. 3 is the greatest of Vice no question. It's perfect and great. There's not a single bad episode on it. Every episode is great. I loved 3 on video, and now it's incredibly greater on dvd. The one and only time Vice was perfect was 3! Forget, the other seasons. The picture is fantastic and the sound isn't muffled and there are no defects. It's like the saying goes. The third time is the charm! That can't be more true for 3! Completely great all around.Movie Review: Original, glamorous and with a lethal dose of reality
Summary: 5 Stars
Like the previous seasons this third one has a lethal dose of real life, which comes up especially when Larry Zito's killed and when Ira Stone dies after trying to show in the television about a village in Nicaragua attacked by American soldiers. Unlike other police series Miami Vice shows things the way they really are, including people's weaknesses. It's really a pity it hasn't been realeased in Brazil, but I'm glad I could watch it anyway. Fourth and fifth season are already on their way. Like someone else said here, before Elvis there was nothing and after Miami Vice there has been nothing.
