Collateral – 7/10

Last night we watched Collateral starring Tom Cruise, Jamie Foxx, and Jada Pinkett Smith. While it’s not the best film any of these actors has done by a long shot, it is watchable.

Basically Cruise is a professional hit man that gets in Foxx’s cab. When his first hit goes wrong and the body lands on the cab Cruise is forced to tell Foxx what he’s doing – going around killing people. Foxx is forced to drive Cruise around all night so that he can complete his task.

It’s very high energy in a few places, the acting is solid (but not amazing), and the action sequences are ok (it’s really more of a drama than an action film). The only thing that was really disappointing was the ending – very predictable (I’ll let you figure it out). Not a must see but it is pretty good.
