Like all of you that are waiting for the release of the MIAMI VICE: SEASON TWO DVD, I'm very excited about it.
P.S. To reply to Vincent's review of the DVD set, the episode where in one scene Crockett's black car gets blown to smithereens is "When Irish Eyes are Crying". That episode is from the THIRD season, not the second season. Just thought you'd like to know... More Info About This DVD Actor(s): Don Johnson DVD Release Date: 13 December 2005

To hear the opening beats of Jan Hammer's percussive, propulsive Miami Vice theme is to be instantly transported back to 1984. But this groundbreaking series, with its cinematic sensibility, cool clothes, and killer soundtrack is no mere blast from the past. It still rocks. This three-disc set would be worthless if it didn't. Music was an integral part of Miami Vice's hip vibe. The soundtrack propelled the stories and established the mood like no series before it. So the first thing you want to know is: Have the music rights been secured for this DVD release? In the pilot episode, does Phil Collins's "In the Air Tonight" still play ominously as vice undercover cops Crockett and Tubbs speed toward a bust? Does Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight" serenade Sonny and Gina on his... More Info About This DVD Actor(s): Don Johnson DVD Release Date: Released the 08 February 2005 Usually ships in 24 hours

If you have never been introduced to Thora Birch-this is the one to see. I don't know if this was her first movie or not but she is really young in this film. If there were ever a star born "this is it". She is just unbelievable. Griffin and Johnson are really great too. This movie is actually worth watching for the scene location alone.

I give this movie 3 stars only because I loved the book sooooo much. I re-read the book about once a year. I ended up getting a second copy because the first one was being kept together with a rubber band.
The book is truely about a man who gave his word of honor to his men only to have every one of them break their word. It was an incredible book with powerful emotions and images. All of this was lost in the movie.
If the premise of the movie/book interests you, please read the book first. If you see the movie first, you are unlikely to have any interest is reading the book. More Info About This DVD Actor(s): Don Johnson DVD Release Date: Released the 20 July 2004 Usually ships within 24 hours

The race murders committed by a group of neo-Nazis in Dead-Bang are based on fact, but the down-on-his-luck, L.A. homicide detective (Don Johnson in a role inspired by a real-life cop) investigating them is the real show here. His personal life in such turmoil that he vomits on a witness, his finances so bad that he has to tape his broken glasses, Johnson's gumshoe is a study in dedicated grimness. There's adequate suspense and drama surrounding the killer fascists, but this 1989 film by John Frankenheimer (The Manchurian Candidate) is more noteworthy for a few examples of the director's stylish flair for hard action than social commentary. --Tom KeoghMore Info About This DVD Actor(s): Don Johnson - Penelope Ann Miller Director(s): John Frankenheimer DVD Release Date: Released the 01 June 2004 Usually ships within 3 to 5 weeks
