Disadvantages: Too long for some

...their big step in bringing Batman back to the big screen in 2005 with Batman Begins, and boy did they do it in a big way. I'm sure most people have seen a Batman film in the past, although with the special effects directors can now include in their movies, this was going to be something special. Batman Begins shows how the story starts, in this an era of when people want to know what started the chain of events. Christian Bale was cast the big role ...

Disadvantages: Chemistry not good enough bettween Farell and Li

The producers and directors must have feared that making a movie about this series would feel way too retro so they seem to have gone overboard compensating by updating the feel to be modern. The result was a very dark and gripping super-deep-undercover crime drama ...
...agencies like the FBI and Miami Vice cops. The FBI seems to have a leak and can't be trusted to take down the biggest drug lord, so Crockett and Tubbs volunteer for the job and find themselves in some of the most unfriendly places in the universe, but despite it all Crockett behooves the big bad guy's girlfriend played by Gong Li.
