      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Driven by director Michael Mann's trademark visuals and a lean, villainous performance from Tom Cruise, Collateral is a stylish and compelling noir thriller.

      Mindy E I saw Collateral when it first came out and then I saw it again a couple days ago. I keep reading critics reviews talking about Jaime Foxx and while he was good I think Collateral is Tom Cruise's movie. I don't think it would've been the great movie that it is without him. He's perfect in his role as the villian and it just proves what a versatile actor he really is. Collateral is definitely worth watching. I debated on whether to give it 3 or 4 stars so ultimately I give it 3 and a half. Great movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/18/24 Full Review James B a great movie cool seeing tom cruise as a villain very suspenseful and well shot film good performances by javier bardem mark ruffalo jada pinkett smith and especially jamie foxx a must see film. tom cruises only villain role film worth seeing for that one of michael manns best up there with thief Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/11/24 Full Review ANY1aBLUE Great film making. Very stylish, marvellous claustrophobic atmosphere envelops the viewer together with the actors touring around a soulless big city in the back of a taxi. Superb acting - best I've seen from Cruise who does a fantastic job portraying a ruthless, but ultimately very sad, and confused hitman. We want to know more about him but it always stays out of reach and we never do know why an intelligent and caring man turned to this life. That's the brilliance of this film - it leaves you emotionally shattered. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/08/24 Full Review Connor S The biggest movie star of all time is 100% a more than convincing villain. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/02/24 Full Review Brian B Terrible, uninteresting, nothing movie. Complete waste of time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/22/24 Full Review Stacey L A thrilling but intelligent ride. I first came across this movie shortly after it was released on video, and it is still one of my all time favorite movies. Between Tom Cruise playing the bad guy (he did it well), and a stand out performance by Jamie Foxx, this is must see. Jamie Fox's performance alone is enough to watch this movie for. I was recently happy to find in on 4K Blu-ray and I didn't hesitate. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Collateral

      Max (JAMIE FOXX) and Annie (JADA PINKETT SMITH) wonder if they've come to the end of the line when they try to escape from Vincent on Los Angeles' Metro. JAVIER BARDEM makes a cameo appearance as Felix, part of the narcotrafficking cartel who hired Vincent, sight unseen, to kill five key witnesses against them in a single night. Max (JAMIE FOXX, center) tries to intervene with Vincent (TOM CRUISE, left) to save the life of Daniel (BARRY SHABAKA HENLEY), one of the people Vincent was contracted to kill. Director MICHAEL MANN (right) gives some direction to star JAMIE FOXX on the set of DreamWorks Pictures' and Paramount Pictures' thriller COLLATERAL. Detective Fanning (MARK RUFFALO), an FBI Agent (PAUL ADELSTEIN), Detective Weidner (PETER BERG) and F.B.I. Agent Pedrosa (BRUCE McGILL) are investigating a murder that appears to be connected. Director MICHAEL MANN (left) goes over a scene with stars TOM CRUISE and JAMIE FOXX on the set of DreamWorks Pictures' and Paramount Pictures' thriller COLLATERAL. JAMIE FOXX stars as Max, a Los Angeles cab driver who is hijacked by a contract killer and forced to drive him to various destinations to carry out 5 hits. Felix (JAVIER BARDEM, left), a powerful member of an offshore narcotrafficking cartel, has no idea that he is only talking to a cab driver named Max (JAMIE FOXX). A Los Angeles cab driver named Max (JAMIE FOXX) is stunned to learn that his latest fare, Vincent (TOM CRUISE), is a contract killer who has hijacked his cab to complete five hits in one night. One last door is all that stands between Vincent (TOM CRUISE) and the completion of the job he was hired to do. View more photos

      Will Self London Evening Standard Cruise lacked the deepdown malevolence required to bring Vincent to life. I wished him dead in the first few minutes he was on the screen -- and for the wrong reasons. Jan 8, 2018 Full Review Chris Stuckmann ChrisStuckmann.com A visually striking film from the unhinged, endlessly creative mind of Michael Mann. Rated: A+ May 17, 2015 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Powerful but violent thriller -- not for kids. Rated: 4/5 Dec 22, 2010 Full Review Dave Giannini InSession Film This may not be Mann’s best (that probably goes to Heat or The Insider), but it is undoubtedly one of the best of 2004. Feb 20, 2024 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand Tom Cruise is well cast as a coldly efficient professional assassin and Jamie Foxx is excellent as the cabbie who picks unwittingly drives him to his targets in Michael Mann’s coolly attenuated thriller... Aug 19, 2023 Full Review Fedor Tot Vague Visages Thus, in Collateral, glinting lights, noise, fragmentations and all digital ephemera are key to the existence of digital film as digital film and not an approximation of photochemical film...
