Collateral

[Dr. Freeman]

i am a bit surprised a thread on this movie does not exist.. well at least thats what the search button told me.

anyway i saw this flick earlier and thoroughly enjoy it
it has its funny momments and it has some decent action in it as well

anyway, Tom Cruise convinced me that he could make a decent Max Payne if the MP series was heading to the big screen.. tho i think other actors fit in the Max Payne character perhaps moreso than Cruise.

Jamie Foxx gained a bit of respect from me afer having watched this movie.
anyway so anyone else seen it yet?

if u haven't and are deciding which one u should check out.. then i'd say go for it with this one..

Lookinf FWD to see it, now that you mention it, he would make a decent Max Payne.
Tom is trying to re-do his image, Samuri flick diden't work to good.

I thought The Last Samurai was good, but then I saw Kill Bill 2

The movie reminded me of others like Speed and Phonebooth, which I both thoroughly enjoyed.

Collateral (which I kept calling Collateral Damage ), is a good thriller. It gets slow for a while, but once you see the nightclub scene it gets very good. The Oakenfold track combined with a methodical Cruise worked very well there IMO. Highlight of the film.

 

[Dr. Freeman]

hmm.. and Michael Mann is a pretty good director.
i watched The Insider.. Russel Crowe was the notable actor in it.. its about a corporate whistle blower.. anyway, i think Michael Mann's work is generally good

Great film!!!
The acting/writing/cinematography/directing all came to together perfectly to make one of the best films this year( besides KB 2 it is the best). This is the only film with tom cruise ofr jamie fox that I would actually consider buying.

The seen were Vincent gets his case back from those 2 thugs is the single best 5 seconds shot on camera in years.

Great movie. Had it's funny moments too. I liked a few moments near the end that make the movie seem more real.

Non-plot-spoiling events:

Spoiler

Vincent throws a chair through a pane of glass to jump through. When he jumps, he trips on the chair and has a spectacular fall. Also, when Vincent is getting back into the metro, the door hits him in the back. Just a few moments that make the characters seem more real.

It's settled. If I ever have a kid, his name is going to be Vincent. So many tv/movie/game characters with the name are just badass. It also fits with my last name if you ask me.
