The wheel came back around on
Miami Vice. When the film was released in the summer of 2006,
critical and audience reception was cold. But today, it seems like every
few months there’s a new think piece hailing the film as brilliant. Those
articles are great, because they encourage people to watch the movie for the
first time, or revisit it with fresh eyes. Me? I’ve always adored the film, and
I’m always looking for ways to explain my appreciation of it. (Please note that
I’m going to spoil all major details about
Miami
Vice. And a few about
Heat.)
