I saw this movie yesterday as well but I enjoyed it. I like that the movie kept the same tone and feel of the series without being too 80s campy. Actually, the original series was really never campy with its gritty and dark feel.
Were you a fan of the original series? I think you must have at least watched a few episodes to appreciate where michael mann is going with the movie. Without that perspective its just another action flick but he kept lots of signatures in the movie (angle of photograpy, lighting, cheesy dramatic romantic moments, music etc) to make it interesting.
