This is very differant from the TV show other than the fact that the core characters feel very deeply about each other. I connected with them in this way and was able to really move through the story with them. Micheal Mann is a master at creating a mood and he does it well in this film. Very adult though, the sexual situations, although not gratuitous and out of place are not for those under 17.

What Parents Need to Know
About Miami Vice
Parents need to know that this movie is not for kids. It's focused on cops undercover as drug smugglers: This involves lying, dealing with criminals, and performing illegal activities. The film includes frequent references to drug use and some images (crystal meth, cocaine, heroin). It also features brutal violence: gunshots blow through bodies, limbs, and heads, producing much blood. The effect is not cartoonish, but grisly and startling. Characters seek revenge, but don't always feel better when they achieve it.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the friendship between Crockett and Tubbs: Why do they support each other even when one thinks the other is going astray? Why does Crockett decide to help his criminal girlfriend escape? How do the various "sides" (cops, federal agents, and several tiers of criminals) distrust and betray one another?
