ok, so i'm stuck watching this movie with my girlfriend and her family. I've seen it before with dexterq20, and we had agreed it's a bad movie. I don't know, I just don't think it's Tom Cruise/Jamie Foxx's best roles. It's quite predictable, cliche, and the camera shots are quite inconsistent, which makes you dizzy/confused. I know there are more reasons why I don't like it, but that's all I got for now. any thoughts?

Collateral was ok.

Collateral's tight, intense, violent, dark, a little unnerving. But it's narrow in scope. It's basically just the interaction of two characters. Everything else is totally peripheral. Good movie!

i thought the movie sucked all the way around and i wish i could have that time of my life back .It was predictable and the acting was not very good. From the miinute the lawyer got in the car i knew that she was gonna be the last one on the list and the cabby would have to be the hero and blah blah blah. it sucked.

However The Manchurian Candidate was awesome.

when you watch a movie with a good actor you forget that it an actor, when you watch a tom cruise movie its still tom cruise, tom cruise sucks at acting... so i didnt see the movie
