a good evening in! - By: Noodles, 25 Jan 2006 
I was too young to reallly enjoy miami vice when it came on tv but I am reallly glad i saw it on dvd. It is an exciting fast paced well scripted show with great production values. I hope the rest of the series comes out on dvd soon. As good as any action movie out there.
Stylish trip down memory lane - By: , 10 Nov 2004 
One of the most influential TV cop series ever. Fab setting, fast-paced with excellent plots & stylish cinematography. Excellent series & seeing it again will remind you of when lads discovered pink shirts, no sox & convertibles!!
Everything about this series sums up the eighties & what they were alll about - settle down with this video/DVD on a wet Sunday afternoon & remember what cool reallly means!
Great...but leaves you wanting more - By: Mr. S. R. Dhain, 20 Jul 2004 Don Johnson was at a peak in the mid 80's to early 90's because of this series. The plots are a little corny by today's standards, but the sheen & neon edges which are director MICHAEL MANN'S trademark are what reallly make this worth watching...again & again
the GOLDEN TRAINGLE episodes (although concluded here), were later followed up on in series 2 , with some stellar acting from Edward James Olsmos (LT CASTILLO). The plot?...watch & find out.
Only four stars because I'm waiting for the BOX SETS, which rumour has it should be here by the end of this year..
Can't wait!
Classy - By: joel.vandenbroek@btinternet.com, 16 Jun 2001 Miami Vice is, without a doubt, the greatest TV detective series ever made & it is doubtful it will ever be surpassed. The pilot is probably one of the best ever, as everything is pretty much in place in this very first episode: The attitude, the music, the cars, the crocodile, the clothes, the boat, the women & the attitude. It is fast moving & highly recommended. The only glaring absentee from the pilot is Lt. Castillo (Edward James Olmos), but he joined the series a little later. The Golden Triangle is perhaps not the best episode(s) to choose, but is a bit of a curate's egg as it was the only episode of the series written or co-written by Michael Mann. However, on the whole, it is definitely good to have this DVD. It would also be great if episodes from series 2 & 3 are released, because that it is when the show reallly got in to its stride. Highly recommended to alll fans of the show & of slick cop shows generallly.
