Miami Blues 4K 1990 Ultra HD 2160p

Frederick J. Frenger Jr. flies from California to Miami and on his arrival, he steals luggage where a little boy was sat at the Miami Airport. Then, he breaks a finger of an annoying Hare Krishna on the escalator and embarks on a courtesy bus. He checks in a hotel using another name and asks to the bellboy Pablo to send an escort girl for him. He meets the naive Pepper, the alias of Susie Waggoner, who is a college girl and part-time prostitute, and soon develops a crush on her. They move to her apartment and Junior promises to take care of her. Meanwhile, the Hare Krishna dies and Sgt. Hoke Moseley and Sgt. Bill Henderson realize that the murder was unintentional. They track Junior down and Sgt. Moseley visits the couple at Susie's apartment and has dinner with them. Junior, who is an ex-con, con-artist and thief, becomes upset with Moseley, goes to his hotel room, beats him up and steals his badge, his gun and his denture. Now Junior impersonates a cop to steal from ordinary people and thugs using Moseley's badge and gun in a crime spree. When Sgt. Moseley recovers and is released from the hospital, his informant Blink Willie sees Junior in action and Moseley hunts him down.

User Review
It's been 33 years since Miami Blues' release and its yet to get anything near the recognition it deserves. The film is like absolutely nothing you've seen before or after. With the most insensitive, bonkers humor that follows no rules. And when you discuss the film, you're talking about Junior by default because he is the movie in every way. Though there are strong efforts from the supporting cast in Fred Ward who's hard to see differently after this equally bizarre character and Jennifer Jadon Leigh who over fills the part with more dramatic weight than it thought it had. But front and enter is Alec Baldwin, who is able to express all his best qualities as an actor in this career best role as an unconventionally likeable nut and his absurdly criminal antics. Who appears to be completely devoid of reservations but has just a tiny speck of decency which. Does everything he does or happens in this film seem believable. No, in fact very little does but there's a good chance it will have you laughing start to finish.
