ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

lizawood-82114 Collateral features an amazing turn by megastar Tom Cruise in a negative shade. This is a great work by Michael Mann whose decision to shoot at night(this is an all-nighter movie) gives the film an atmosphere that is exceptional and unique. Shot on the streets of Los Angeles Cruise plays a contract killer who hires a taxi and goes about offing people systematically. Jamie Foxx plays the taxi driver and his banter with Cruise form the majority of the running time. The dialogues are good- snappy as well as thought provoking as and when the need arises, the pacing is excellent and direction, as expected from a master filmmaker is top notch. If you are used to seeing Cruise in positive heroic roles Collateral will give you a pleasant surprise.

ingrich2011 The only thing I disliked about this movie was the ending. They could have gone along with Vincent's character in another movie. Like a sequel. Really entertaining since the beginning till the end.

cinemajesty Movie Review: "Collateral" (2004)Star-actor Tom Cruise, as highly-visceral playing Hitman "Vincent" from nowhere, hitting LAX getting the Intel bag from cameo-pushing British-hitman-pendant Jason Statham, before making five stops with cap-driving always Limousine-dreaming character of "Max", perfomed emotional as identifiable actor Jamie Foxx, putting us on a journey to most hidden corners and side allys of beautifully, if not most amazing captured night exteriors of "Metropolis" Los Angeles, when the plot thickens, hits going wrong, sneaking through the underworld of West coast major city, meeting mysterious as hostile-looking character of "Felix", given face unmissable by imported, uprising actor Javier Bardem as the original script for "Collateral" directed to superior cinematic efforts by Michael Mann at his prime with supreme cinematographers Paul Cameron and Dion Beebe digital as filmstock -pushing footage to pitch-perfect 115-Minute-Final-Cut of beyond Hollywood motion picture entertainment to its finest reception.Copyright 2018 Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC

spet-53656 Tom Cruise is very well suited to this role and ensured Mark Ruffalo's performance. The scene in the club...awesome !
