Mann drops the audience immediately in the middle of a crime scene being done by characters Sonny Crockett and Richardo Tubbs but is not given any context. It starts with a hypermetric nightclub sequence with the song “Numb/Encore” by Linkin Park and Jay-Z being the first things we hear. Every interaction being seen with others, we are taking mental note of how these feelings and long-fulfilled acts of loneliness have affected the characters’ lives and how they play a crucial role in ours. However, in Miami Vice, we are bystanders in the film’s world as well as ponders questions of what we would do in their situation if being placed in their shoes. In Mann’s previous works like Heat, and Collateral (2004) we are seen as observers watching the scene of the crimes acted upon by these characters.

Mann has built the foundation of the original ’80s series with familiar character names, locations, romantic sub-plots, and among others, but creates an illusory almost dreamlike environment. Miami Vice (2006) is a film given a standard blockbuster budget of roughly $135 million dollars but is created less in the vein of Mann’s previous genre flicks ala the likes of Heat (1995) or Ali (2001) but feels more like an arthouse film. Why Miami Vice (2006) still holds up 15 years later And with its 15th anniversary upon us, it is best to look back at how my personal favorite filmmaker has created something innovative in the crime-action genre. Through a cult following on social media platforms and revisionisms, Michael Mann’s 2006 magnum opus Miami Vice has been a most popular topic during the conversation. The debate listed above was revitalized and this has much thought about what films are not received in a positive light by the general public, but still has their collective fans. Recently, the latest Marvel blockbuster, Eternals, has become the first title in the growing cinematic universe with a “rotten” rating.
