 Miami Vice... January 19, 2003

Frank Sinatra is Tony Rome, an ex-cop turned private eye, who makes his home aboard a boat, in sunny Miami. Cynical, semi-tough, and a wise cracking gambler, a call from his ex-partner, draws him into a case revolving around the troubled family affairs of influential businessman Rudy Kosterman (Simon Oakland). His daughter Diana, (Sue Lyon) has a habit of passing out in strange places. Rome's search for Diana's missing diamond pin, leads to a twisting tale of intrigue, deception and death.pWe get a glimpse at the dark side of Miami, as we follow Rome on the case. Sinatra pulls it off pretty well, without being too cute. The plot is not predictable, and requires that you pay attention. Violent at times, but not gratuitously so. pGena Rowlands appears as Klosterman's wife. Jill St. John looks good, but her performance never rings true. Ex-boxer Rocky Graziano makes a cameo, and Deanna Lund, from TV's Land of the Giants, also briefly appears. Billy May's musical score sounds like it was lifted from the 60's TV series, Batman. And Frank's daughter Nancy, sings Lee Hazelwood's corny title song to the movie. pA good piece from the period, that doesn't stray too far from reality or sink into excess. Worth seeing for the story. Sinatra would reprise his role as Tony Rome for a sequel, "Lady In Cement".
 Tony Rome'll Getcha Ya May 15, 2002
Mycroft (Charleston, Oregon)
Not as bright and crisp as Lady In Cement but a delight all the same. Frank Sinatra plays Tony Rome with a touch of down at the heels class. Jill St John takes lines that would be cheesy in the hands of a less capable actress and makes them ring with humor and mirth. It's a toss up who gets the best line: Sinatra's "Oh I'll have some of that." or St John's "Slut?" It won't educate you or lift your moral fiber but it's a great popcorn movie. (Home viewers may find that some other sort of diversion comes to mind after the fifth or sixth "Malcom . . .")brThirty years and counting and this one hasn't lost any of its appeal.
A Republic B with a dashing good script June 27, 2001
John R. Bridell (Minneapolis, MN USA)
TONY ROME, if you had noticed, is not a Republic Pictures B detective movie. It's up a grade or two with a dashing good script and . . . WHAT a cast! Sinatra joins a well known crowd of movie detectives; the Marlowes, etal. as he sleuths for assorted clients. Well, maybe not in Charlie Chan's class, a gumshoe who never laid a bookie bet as Tony Rome often does. The suspect end of the plot is loaded with decoys, but at the end everyting is sorted out, the crime is resolved and the criminals are either dead or . . . well, best to see TONY ROME to find out. You just can't help enjoying Sinatra's laid back style. Yeh! I think younger folks could handle this film. The language is unsmutty. The sex is rather subtle and nothing naughty goes on in the back seat of Sinatra's Ford-bulls-eye-tail-lites convertible The violence is certainly minimal by today's standards. For example, my wife at the finish asked, Has he killed only three people? Actually, I counted about five. TONY ROME is an excellent B+++++ movie that doesn't lag a moment . . . even in the mushy scenes and there ain't that much smoochin' anyway.
When Tony Rome talks, broads and tough guys listen up April 14, 2001
Randell Hurst (Tecumseh, OK USA)

There is more than a little Sinatra in this man called Tony Rome. Hard drinking, broad loving, pony betting, it's all here and it's all good. Between long drags on his Luckys, Sinatra is a real man's man in the way he handles broads as well as tough guys in this one. A confirmed bachelor living on his boat, proves the ideal setting for this devil-may-care private eye who shrugs off gorgeous babes as easily as he outwits the heavies trying to keep him from their secrets. Being equally quick with fists and wits allows Tony Rome to get out of dutch faster than you can say, Hey Pal, make mine a double. If smoking, drinking, and carousing make you long for the good old days, then get this video. Oh yeah, have one for Ol' Blue Eyes and me while you watch it.
pretty good content,debateable for young kids July 31, 1999
Tony Rome five(out of)five stars two tumbs up .Vivid action graphics surrounds Frank Sinatra in a ditetoves world of crime. Suspenseful movie.Gungfights makeup for the weak storyline. Older kids(10 and up)will handle the movie varywell. Young kids debateable.For the most part pretty clean. Kissing and adultcontent makes the movie debateable for young odences.
