The best movie of 2004

Rating: 10/10 (14 January 2005)

What a great movie this was it had me hooked from start to finish. There is an interesting cameo at the start by Jason Statham and I kept expecting him to turn up again in the movie but he never does. James Foxx is really good as the cab driver but it is Tom Cruise he steals the show with his portrayal of the hired hit-man. He does though make it look really cool to be a hit-man and has a certain style in carrying out his hits! Okay the film has its flaws and the plot is a bit silly at time but its a great movie. The ending though does seem like a bit of a rip off from the first Terminator film but is well executed. Tom Cruise shows in this film he can play bad guys and I hope he plays more bad guys if this film is anything to go by.
