Don Johnson was likely happiest of all. He expected to be part of the big screen version in some capacity. Getting snubbed didn't please him. Oh, well....

IMHO that movie was SO bad.
Posers trying to deliver some really bad script.
Minimal really cool explosions.

Wow, I didn't know that GE was in the movie business. I think it's time for them to stick to their knitting.

Anything, anything that causes difficulty or loss of money or layoffs or misery to the Dinosaur Media is good news. The Dinosaur Media (aka DriveBy Media) includes, but is not limited to: ABCNBCCBSCNN, Hollywood, NY Times, LA Times, Chicago Tribune, The Inky, Vanity Fair, The New Yorker, etc...

the real Miami Vice!

IMHO that movie was SO bad. I haven't heard many good things about the movie, which is too bad. I usually like Mann's pictures.

One of my favorite TV shows, going back to when I lived in Miami, but no way would I pay to see the big-screen nonsense.
To: abb
I'm a big Michael Mann Fan, so I am dissapointed by this.

You don't have to remind me. I had the DJ ensemble, sans Bren 10mm. My school had some silly rules about that type of accessory.

And THAT is the reason for the movies failure. They should have brought back Don Johnson and Phillip Michael Thomas. There are all kinds of plots and ways to do that.
Those guys cannot be replaced.

Their first mistake was not setting in the 80s!
To: gopwinsin04
That amazed me as well, it doesn't seem it should have been an expensive movie to make.
To: abb
Celebrating the failure of the American Arts community is not good news. Would you prefer a country with no movies at all?
