Is Michael Mann the director that filmed that movie with Tom Cruise and that black guy? Also who filmed Miami Vice which also starred that guy?

Oh nm. I see that this movie also has that black guy in it, it must be the same director I’m thinking of ( Why can’t I remember his damn name? )

Anyways, if that’s the case, it’ll probably be good.

Michael Mann Directed and Produced

Heat (Pachino, Deniro, Kilmer)  
Collateral ( Cruise, Foxx)  
Miami Vice (Farell , Foxx)

And Produced but did not direct

The Kingdom.

It will have his feel, his extreme realism but not his directorship style.

Miami Vice was decent, I have it on DVD.

I’ll definitely be buying The Kingdom when it comes out.

Heard all these same reviews. Watched it the other day and honestly I didn’t think it lived up to all the hype everyone gave it :gotme:

Was it good? Yes. Was it amazing? I didn’t think so.
