Collateral - 2004
"A guy gets on the MTA here in L.A. and dies. Think anybody'll notice?"
This movie is just really slick from the story to the acting to how it was shot. Michael Mann does an incredible job directing this movie. It's over one night in LA and Los Angeles feels like a character in the movie as well. If you have never been to LA it feels like you spent a night there after this movie. Whenever they are in the cab Mann has some really cool shots of them, like the pic above. I just really dug how this movie looks. The story also keeps you super engaged as you explore this one night with Vincent and Max. The music in the movie also hits just right to me.
I just find this movie super underrated. It's just a really cool flick with a really engrossing story and some stellar performances by Foxx and Cruise. Recommend it highly.
On to the top 10
