<div class="IPBDescription">the one with Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx</div> 100% whoopass. this movie was GOOD.

drama: A

acting: B

plot: B+

atmosphere: A

music: A+

sound: A+

visuals: A+

altogether, this movie ROCKED. the action was great, awesome sound and coreography.. the plot WORKED, it wasn't pretentiously complicated nor was it spoon-fed.. tom cruise was <i>really</i> good.. Jamie Foxx, who i had trouble taking seriously before this movie, was also very, very good. the music was teriffic.. really atmospheric, it sealed the whole movie. one of the few genuine quality entries into the Action-Drama genre since the classics (like Clear and Present Danger, or Leon) that i've seen in YEARS. <b>my buddy and i give Collateral four thumbs up, and big toes if you want 'em.</b>

did i say the action was GREAT? i was lying, it was F*ING-A COOL.

    Whats sad is some people, apparently this lady was convinced Tom is a homosexual, therefore making the movie "crappy" GG wisconsinites.

    Planning on seeing it Friday along with a host of other movies - AvP and Without a Paddle.

    it's really amazing.. Tom Cruise took weapons training and throughout the movie you can REALLY tell.. the realism level in the film is f*ing hardcore <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Hurrah to waiting a month for it to come out in the UK. Hurrah for waiting 2 months for AVP.

    I mean, do they tape the film reels to ducks and wait for them to migrate back to England or something? What's so hard about opening in the UK at the same time.

    they could be hijacked and spread over the interent faster than they normally would, but noone suspects ducks of carrying the movies over, WAY TO GIVE IT AWAY STICKMAN, now all the terrorists know

    Yeah, Collateral is a good movie, but predictable in certain parst like other people said. And Tom Cruise owned people so bad in it. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I loved it, Jamie Foxx impressed the hell out of me and now I can't wait to see him in 'Ray'. I liked that every victim was kind of like it's own little movie.
