Michael Mann presents the city of Miami as attractive, engaging, alluring, sensual and also dangerous
This is a story about being undercover, and what happens when you go deep undercover, particularly if you're doing an operation in a foreign country, where your badge doesn't count and where you can't have a SWAT team surveilling you, and people are not in contact, you really are out on the edge
Crockett (Colin Farrell) and Tubbs (Jamie Foxx) have to act, talk and walk like bad guys They have to convince a mid-level trafficker, the Colombian José Yero (John Ortiz) that they are not cops So they have to adapt themselves and change themselves to play the role they're trying to play It's all the impulses in their personality with the volume turned up and the inhibitions turned off
"Miami Vice" is not about one commodity, cocaine, and one geographical location, Columbia It's about globalized forms of trafficking Los Angeles to Port of Prince, to Guajira Peninsula, to Havana and, naturally, to Miami Crockett and Tubbs had to deal with major narcotics traffickers that act as brilliant businessmen, at the upper echelons of command and control, sitting in luxurious houses, eating the best foods, driving the best cars
Mann has, wisely, taken the format of the show presenting two cops confronting wealth and power after the death of one informant and the killing of his whole family
As police drama go, "Miami Vice" does exciting things when Yero jacked one of the two Miami cops' people The film is impeccable, especially in the last 30 minutes, when the police decided not to initiate until they've got Yero's shooters in their sights
