Review of Miami Blues

Miami Blues (1990)
7/10
Bloody Blues
26 January 1999
Miami Blues is not the best movie I've seen but it's got an attraction to it.Here we got three fine stars, Alec Baldwin, Fred Ward and Jennifer Jason Leigh.Baldwin is the main character,a hardened criminal that on a murderous journey in Miami meets Leigh's half-witted prostitute and Ward's polic eofficer who is out to get him.They are all very good in their roles.Ward is unshaven, dirty and got false teeth which Baldwin steals from him along with his gun.Baldwin is pretty good as the bad guy,not excellent but ok and Leigh makes a good performance as a dumb callgirl.It starts out fine but as it goes on it gets somewhat ridiculous, laughable and violent. It barely makes as entertainment but is also quite original in style and story.
