really moved me, I cry at the end every time

Rating: 10/10 (4 November 2006)

There's something about this movie. The script is great. I love that its shot at night. I don't necessarily think Tom Cruise is a great actor, hes a good actor, but I've never seen a movie of his that I haven't enjoyed. He has a talent of picking movies and scripts that are excellent, with the exception of Top Gun and that car film ;).
My only criticism is I doubt very much an assassin would wear a light grey suit and sunglasses at night, particularly inside a hospital. It certainly isn't subtle, but I overlooked that because the movie carries you along. It is a very cruisy and emotive movie. Really didn't enjoy Mark Rufalo's character. Just didn't fit in and didn't seem necessary.
I loved that there weren't car chases and things blowing up which is the usual Hollywood cover-up for no plot and bad scripts, and it had a psychological undercurrent.
I loved the coyote part of the movie. The look in their eyes, the displacement of the coyote and displacement of those two characters in their own city etc. Its nice to see a movie where everything isn't spelled out. I loved the line, about the train and the body on the train, and "do you think anyone will notice"
The humanity of the film is very poignant. Tom Cruise' character as the assassin had many aspects. He was a sad intelligent and lost character and the end always makes me cry.
