Simply Amazing

Rating: 10/10 (27 September 2004)

Micheal Mann is brilliant in more ways than one. And in this film he shows again his incredible ability to film at night.
The city itself is almost a character on its own in this incredible film. Tom Cruise gave one of the best performances of his career as the payed assassin Vincent, and Jamie Foxx has prooven himself with his portrayal of Max.
The writing was brilliant and gave you a good look at these unique characters. And Vincent, rather than being shown as a two dimensional soulless killer is instead shown as a man who thinks a lot about what he does.
This film, although it has great action scene's still exhibits several interesting and thoughtful conversation between the two main character's. They talked about there thoughts about death and the worlds apathy towards it.
Only Micheal Mann is capable of making a film like this one. It is a must see. I don't give ten star ratings very often but this is easily a ten.
