Every single time they try to do ANYTHING with offshore, they mess it up big time. Travolta has been doing the same kind of movies as Nicholas Cage, so I'm not holding my breath on this on.

I don't like his movies usually and the scientology just ads to it (especially living in there meca area).

Offshore stuff is tough, look how many bad race car movies are out there. The Miami Vice movie had a reasonable basis to go on (the TV series), decent actors with great boats and it was an ok movie. The Don Aronow movie is going to be based in the 70's-80's and Hollywood will try to over glamorize the selling boats to George Bush and other heads of state vs. the real business of selling boats to local guys that were more "gritty?"


Don't expect "Vinny Barbarino" to get anything right with this movie. His action movies are terrible!

Russell Crowe! He has the proper "I don't give a fvck attitude" in all his movies!

I think Clooney could play the part better than Travolta. Clooney still has his on-screen coolness, charm and grace and looks. To me Travolta now comes across as used-up.

Clooney? 99% of his movies are box office bombs, its gonna be hard enough for this movie to get any good traction. I say Russel Crowe would be good as Aronow had a larger then life presence, so it needs to be a big presence type guy who stands firm an commands attention.

Wait...I think this is all in vain, they have their guy.
