have any of you seen it? If not, I HIGHLY recommend it. Both Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx were incredible in their roles. I have yet to be disappointed with a Michael Mann film.

Have to say I've not even seen it advertised, so what kind of film is it?

A movie with an implausible plot: Hit man takes taxi to visit his 5 contract kills of the nite, taxi driver sees first hit, hit man forces taxi driver to keep driving him around. Does NOT kill him as soon as he sees it. Does NOT simply get his own car.
While the individual parts of the movie get high praise, the fact that a hit man like this wouldn't last long kind of blows the movie away for some viewers.

Saw it last Friday, I give it an 8/10.

I wouldn't rate it as a MUST SEE film, but pretty decent movie. Tom Cruise and Jamie Fox did an excellent job, probably the first film I have seen Jamie Fox play a more serious role. He is starring in a film about Ray Charles (He plays Ray Charles) that looks like it will be good.

Saw The Bourne Supremacy Saturday, was a MUCH better movie. Well worth the $9.50 IMO. If you liked the first Bourne movie, you will like this one for sure. Lots of twists and turns, I love these type of movies. I always like the fight scenes when you KNOW he is caught, and when they go to grab him or arrest him, he kicks their ass to tomorrow. Good stuff.


EDIT: Edited for my stupdity. Ray Charles, Jeez Dale, *Bonk* :roll:
