There’s an ancient Chinese proverb that reads: “If Colin Farrell getting his end away with Gong Li you wish to watch, buy a foreign DVD you must.” (Funny how these old Chinese proverbs sometimes sound like Yoda).

Yes, China’s official Communist Party censors have got the scissors out for Michael Mann’s Miami Vice. 20 minutes are reportedly being snipped for its Chinese release, and that includes the steamy sex sessions between Farrell and Li.

China Film Group, which is importing the movie, has refused to confirm the news to The Hollywood Reporter, but Chinese authorities have a history of slicing out unwanted material from the few Hollywood releases permitted to cross the border. M:I lost scenes shot in Shanghai of Tom Cruise killing a Chinese security guard, and Memoirs Of A Geisha was banned outright.
