Excellent Movie!

I was looking forward too seeing how Tom Cruise would do in his first "villian" role. He does great, his character is very believable as well as humorous and very menacing. Jamie Foxx on the other hand does great as the... Full review
Cruise is riveting, but Foxx steals the show

I've always enjoyed Michael Mann's work (Heat, the Insider). He really knows how to film the streets of L.A. to suit the mood of the movie he's making - (Check out the way he captures the car-choked traffic in "Heat"). But... Full review

I honestly don't know why this movie was so praised. I mean, it was good, but nowhere near being great. The story itself was kind of dumb. Cruise's character was supposed to be so professional, but he enlists a cabbie to... Full review

This is the film "Bourne Supremacy" could have been if it had a director as capable as Michael Mann. This is Tom Cruises' first bad guy role and he NAILS it. Jamie Fox shows his dramatic chops but it's no suprise.... Full review

For a director that tries so hard to create realism, it's incredible how implausible the film gets in its second half.....The film has fun with the interplay between these two interesting characters....That alone is nearly enough to make "Collateral" a good movie.....Like much of Mr. Mann's work, the film is at once gritty and clean..... ...

She's a bar dancer an inspired migration by the writers of this flick from the seemingly less noble federal prosecutor played by Jada Pinkett Smith in the original. Irrfan's character, since it's based on one of the two main characters in Mann's original, gets some help from the writer's department. ... Full Review

To Manns credit, the feel of the finished film is both fantastic yet believable, but the influence of the films soundtrack and imagery are both something old and new. Collateral owes a lot to Changing Lanes about how two very different people in a potentially explosive situation can play off one another using their own unique skills and talents. ... Full Review

Not cold, mind you, but cool, for Michael Mann's Collateral is a very stylish pic, and fairly poignant in moments, too. He takes a great movie and he quite simply ruins it with an ending. ... Full Review
