Would have been utter kino if not for Jamie Foxx. It could have gone with Will Smith or Idris Elba or something for the role but not this fricking guy. Same with Collateral. Kino Farrell was great, as always.
indeed. i hate how the word "vibe" has become reddit Black person talk, but this kino truly does VIBE from first to last minute. although i cannot blame mann for soft disowning it due to having to fight that Black person primadonna drama queen jamie vaxx who robbed him of the international shootout ending
His own damn fault. He couldn't keep the israelite in him containted and just made Max some ghetto nog when he's a loser cabbie ruined Collateral. Imagine someone like Paul Dano or Emile Hirsch in that role, it would have made the dynamic between Max and Vincent cinematic gold.
Mann was using the Thomson Viper for the majority of his night shoots because it added unnecessary noise, which he thought it looked appealing. There was some interview he did back in 2005 that explains his use for this camera.
It didn't add "unnecessary" noise, it is what happens when you don't give a digital sensor enough light + you push the gain up. You end up seeing even more into the dark areas but the drawback is that you get more noise since the already noisy signal is amplified. They did bunch of tests on Collateral which amount of gain they felt was still acceptable.
watch a video why noise is created, the senor overheats the higher you push the iso. when sony released their alpha consumer range 10 years ago it blew away the competition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1W-bPyYR0k
Back when digital filmmaking was a novelty and interesting.
Now it's just the standard and only a few directors/DoP experiment with high exposure and rolling shutter. And the only ones who use HFR get blasted by the audience and critics.
The two biggest things I disliked about the movie was the was Colin Farrell mumbled his way through the film (I had to actually watch the DVD with closed captioning just to understand him) and there was no real partner dynamic between Crockett and Tubbs. I didn't expect a Lethal Weapon buddy flick or something like that, but there were only one or two scenes where it came across like Crockett and Tubbs were friends like they were in the series.
Yes. Mann leaves the show's Executive Producer role for Dick Wolf to take over. The stories start going beyond Miami underworld and a nihilistic tone to your typical cop show. It looks different because they replaced the Daytona clone with a real Testarossa because Ferrari wasn't happy that the hero car was a kit car and not a new top of the line car, and pastel suits started being replaced by newer fashions, which is fine, but Crockett wearing a sleek gray sharkskin suit instead of a white deconstructed linen suit something changed.
Don't get me wrong, there are some great stories in the later shows, but once Mann left to focus on crime Story the show just changed tone.
when you go back and watch it, so many episodes are goofy as frick. nuggy makes me feel physically sick. the worst rated episode i think is the james brown one with aliens.
That is also true. Even the first two seasons had some goofy shit. The aforementioned Nuggy and Izzy, Elvis the gator living on the boat, The lieutenant before Castillo arrives and how all he did was yell, Tubbs b***hing about not getting his first paycheck for the first few episodes, how the first few episodes tried to have semi-happy endings. It did take a while for the show to hit its stride.
But starting with S3 the show just changed and not for the better.
i was thinking the other day how miami vice was the most expensive show on tv at the time, approx one million per episode and they still had to use library stock footage. how different it could've been if hbo produced it and were making shit with serious budgets back in the 80's.
interest that in 2006 matthew mcconaughey appeared in Failure to Launch. if mann had listened to everyone saying he's the perfect crockett, mcconaughey would've became a serious actor sooner and a different timeline with maybe no true detective, killer joe or mud.

I was so disappointed to hear he wasn't done in after he disappeared and just resurfaced again. Fricking nog to end all nogs.
Oxymoron, more or less. It's definitely allowed beyond using the no-no word.
lol this chud doesn’t know what an oxymoron is
No, this place is what it is and bringing that up is a complete moot point.
Haha you don’t know what an oxymoron is

>linkin park opening

wrong cut you moron
TC >>>> DC
It was mid
apart from this piece of music the score and soundtrack was shit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0NnhsJLeFQ
numetal phil collins was sick
the only part I like is when crockett is going through his car trunk and there's a thunderstorm in the background
Miami Mice was much better
whole flick should have been this scene
>The rest of yall know what I durn to ya
Klaus Badelt needed freedom. He was the right composer and elevated that Bale prisoner of war movie he scored.
Digitalgays have been gaslighting everyone into liking this trash flick, Collateral and The Zzzocial Network.
Grow a chin
how come in the SAME SCENES, some shots are crisp and smooth and some are 144p-tier grainy???
that's just how 2000s looked like
digital noise from shooting night time scenes with movie camera that are less advanced than a canon canon 5d mark iii. lucas and mann shot in 1080p.
Mann was using the Thomson Viper for the majority of his night shoots because it added unnecessary noise, which he thought it looked appealing. There was some interview he did back in 2005 that explains his use for this camera.
yes but in the night rooftop scenes he clearly uses one particular camera that is grainy as 7 hells

Almost the whole movie is underexposed, especially in night scenes and the gain is pushed up.
The two biggest things I disliked about the movie was the was Colin Farrell mumbled his way through the film (I had to actually watch the DVD with closed captioning just to understand him) and there was no real partner dynamic between Crockett and Tubbs.

I got done watching Season 2 of the show and I've heard that the following seasons are shit. Is this true, bros?
Yes. Mann leaves the show's Executive Producer role for Dick Wolf to take over. The stories start going beyond Miami underworld and a nihilistic tone to your typical cop show.

>Matthew McConaughey as Crockett
>Denzel Washington as Tubbs
