Miami Vice


Director Michael Mann remade his old Miami Vice TV series into a feature with Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx in the leads, and it was very good.

At one point in the film, Tubbs' girlfriend, played by Naomie Harris, is kidnapped by the bad guys.

The bad guys keep her bound to a chair, barefoot and blindfolded.

Naomie Harris shot this in 2006 (probably actually shot it in 2005). She would also star in a couple of the Pirates of the Caribbean films, along with several of the James Bond films starring Daniel Craig, starting with Skyfall.

I really enjoyed this take on Miami Vice; aside from the BF bondage scene, the film overall is superbly done.

I was hoping for a sequel, but--sadly--this was a dud at the box office.

I enjoyed the TV series, but this movie brought a level of much-needed gritiness that I thought the show lacked. At least Mann got to make this version.
