If you loved The Big Bounce, try Miami Blues

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by George Armitage, and they sit in Comedy / Crime territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Big Bounce, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Miami Blues is

Miami airport + noon + the sound of shattering bone. Fresh out of prison, Junior arrives and immediately kills a Hare Krishna, then steals the badge of a detective who soon can't recall his own name. He falls for Susie, a sex worker, and poses as law enforcement. Pure Hiaasen-esque crime farce, filtered through early Demme.
