Overview
A case involving drug lords and murder in South Florida takes a personal turn for undercover detectives Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs. Unorthodox Crockett gets involved romantically with the Chinese-Cuban wife of a trafficker of arms and drugs, while Tubbs deals with an assault on those he loves.
Michael Mann is a good director. and his favorite TV format style gives naturalism - especially murders (shooting in a car). compared to the near-theatricality of an 80s TV series. but this hand-held camera shooting of him is sometimes annoying.
I watched the movie in the cinema (18 years ago) and I don't remember much. but what cut in was the chewing beard of a bald man
and another interview with Colin Farrell. that he communicated with our undercover agents. and that such a life is like a drug.
how Colin Farrell got out of the "drug deal"😎

Linkin Park is unexpected. nostalgia😔
the ending is kind of cropped. the campaign of the mole in the FBI and the drug lord was left for the sequel.
offtop. There are also clamshell phones in the film, and Persian computers have just begun to appear in the series. imho this is the "pre-Apple era". i.e. before the Macintosh - 1st mass. Persian computer and iPhone - 1st mass. a smartphone.
Bandos to heroes - Who are you? Who knows you?
Sanya - Mom and Dad know me.
🤣
to approach the wife of the boss of a drug cartel (to the campaign of the dollmaker). Sonny apparently has one adamantium egg, and the 2nd one is from vibranium.
in the series, this is often the case - one of the characters contacts a woman on a current case. One day, Rico hooked up with the daughter of a drug lord.
and in general, some plots are taken directly from the series.
the Asian woman was taken, of course, for the unusual (Gong Li did not even know English!). neither white nor black nor Latino.
There were cool women in the series too. One of them was played by 20-year-old Julia Roberts. young beauty😁
like the serial Gina Calabrese - Saundra Santiago😍
in the movie Ferrari F430 Spider 2006. but the 1986 Ferrari Testarossa cannot be eclipsed.
It was shot in an unusual way and is very different from other films of that time. And it passes the test of time well.
It's stupid to compare it with the 80s, even the creators joke about it - Yero in the scene in the club jokingly says "I love disco", hinting how frivolous that era looks in current realities.
Definitely a must for visuals — a boat in the dark blue ocean immediately cuts into memory, as does the Miami sky with thunder and lightning. Smudged close shots and a zoom game, panoramas of the night city.
The only trouble with this movie is that it was started at the wrong time. If it hadn't been for the hurricanes, we would have seen a more complete and polished picture with the right ending.
