More than likely during this PAL release, over the time of the movie, you could loose 10-13 minutes in NTSC realtime.
Without the credits, maybe 6-8 minutes, loosing 20 minutes of time compaired to the NTSC Total Run Time is possible.

watched this verison on the TV last night (liking the xvid/divx dvd player)

quality is pretty good, especially considering it's a relatively dark movie to start. Color is good as is the sharpness. The audio is good as well, didn't sound hollow on the 5.1, no hissing and the dialog was clear

movie was decent.. didn't really have a desire to see this film, but being bored can change things. Colin doesn't really work as sonny crocket, but jamie foxx does a good job as tubbs.

Best Release,,bad flick,,,,,,,for those of us old enough,, and there not many here on this forum,,,,,who remember sitting at home, watching Miami Vice, before heading out to the clubs, this falls way short.
Don Johnson made straight white men stop wearing socks and started them pushing up their peach, white, yellow, mint, lavender, colored jackets. Don Johnson made Ray Bans the THING way before Tom Cruise danced in his underwear.

First: Jamie Fox's original character, RICARDO Tubbs, was Puerto Rican. Fox obviously can't do a PR accent.

Second: PLEASE, a perixoded Colin Farrell looking like he doesn't know what shampoo is for..muchless soap. And the mustache.

Third, Miami: so dark and dank, it could have been filmed in New York City in the Bowery.
Only thing swank about this remake was the car and boats.......where Colin Farrell's greasy, bleached out hair hardly moves.

Actually I've worked in TV for nearly 10 years and like it or not, a PAL release (IN REAL TIME) will technially be shorter in standard time than an NTSC release.

25fps is not real time, 30fps aka NTSC is in REAL TIME.

The Pukka release of "Lady in The Water" was internal, that is why it is not indexed on this tracker.

Thanks to PUKKA thanks for making a release that could be watched. Yes us ole geezers remember the days of Don Johnson and if the 2 trailers didn't clue you into what kind of movie this was then shame to you.

It was worth the ten-cents I spent converting this to a dvdr, to watch on my 27" old tv. Was it short? maybe because there is 2 scenes missing from the copy. Go see it in the theatre and you will know which scenes, but 2 hours is more attention than most teens can handle.

To the other members : Thanks for pointing out that Jamie fox isn't puerto-rican, that was almost as obvious as Colin having bleached hair and no five o clock shadow. /Me shakes his head and wonders..

Carlos Mencia say: dee dee dee.

There is no way you would lose 15-20 mins over the course of a movie just cause the fps are different. If you want proof check every ntsc/pal retail release where one or the other(ntsc I think) is nearly always a minute or so longer over 2 hours but thats it.

And just to highlight how daft this point is, ive seen the movie in the cinema and this version is missing at least 3 scenes. A whole dance sequence before the sex scene, a sequence before the caravan explosion and a scene in the boss' mansion.

Thats why the running time is missing minutes.
