Collateral (2004)

Collateral is a chilling and tense drama about a no-holds-barred serial hit man (Tom Cruise as Vincent) and his unwilling taxi-driver accomplice (Jamie Foxx as Max). The photography is excellent, the script is intelligent, and the pacing is quite good. Once the supremely confident (and lethally competent) Vincent climbs into Max's cab, you never know what's going to happen, right to the very end. Collateral is a great ride! After seeing this movie a second time, I still very much enjoy the personal connections that Max establishes with Annie (Jada Pinkett Smith) and Vincent. Enjoy!
