Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 05/03/1990

"...An intensely exciting slice of imagist pulp shrewdly attuned to the jumpy rhythms of its back-street milieu..."

USA Today - 04/10/1990

"...It boasts a welcome 'edge'..."

New York Times - 04/20/1990

"...MIAMI BLUES is best appreciated for the performances of its stars and for the kinds of funny, scene-stealing peripheral touches that keep it lively..."

Entertainment Weekly - 07/19/1996

"...Baldwin's feral smolder makes it something to see..." -- Rating: B

Uncut - 10/01/2004
