Thief is one of my favorites too. Didn't remember that Michael Mann directed, but now that you mentioned it, it's easy to see the similar style that carried over to Miami Vice.
A bit of Thief trivia: All the burglary tools used in the film were real and supplied by actual thieves who served as technical advisors. Caan said that it was his favorite film role.
