I am not too sure if it's just me, or what, but I found Miami Blues to be a very strange movie. I wasn't sure if the movie wasn't a huge parody or what, but this is almost, you could say, Miami Vice played for laughs.
Alec Baldwin, featuring a very odd hairstyle, I just couldn't place my finger one what it was.. I think it was the color of it then anything else, plays Junior, an expert con-man willing to kill to prevent himself from being exposed. While settling down in Florida, he picks up a perky call girl played by Jennifer Jason Leigh and is being hunted down by one sad sack of a detective, played by Fred Ward.
I have no idea what happy juice Alec Baldwin was on at the time, but Mr. Baldwin is just plain scary in the movie. Wild-eyed, wild clothed (nice pink jacket there sir), scene chewing all he can, he's frequently hilarious, and I guess that's what makes this film so interesting to watch. Leigh is great as always, and so is Ward.
What it all boils down to, though, is that fact that this is one dated movie. My heavens! The fashions and hairstyles you'll see! Not too sure which came first, Miami Vice or this, but each compliment each other hand in hand.
