Movie Review 29
Collateral (Rating: 4)

First of all, I don't understand why there were so many elderly people turned out to see this Tom Cruise's action thriller movie. When I saw The Notebook, which apparently attracted old couples because it's that kind of story and very sweet. But I don't know why Tom??

Anyway, as everyone knows, Tom unusually played a bad guy. But he is Tom after all. He showed his smile and teeth on purpose or not, which made this assassin unnecessarily cool. He carjacked cab in LA and forced the driver Max (Jamie Foxx) to drive Tom around so he can kill people easily. I don't quite understand who he was killing. Something about Colombia or something, anyhow, he was paid to kill.

The problem is this assassin the Tom is not so smart, I supposed. He trusted Max too much to keep his assassination plan going on. Like, Tom decided to visit Max's mom in the hospital with flowers. But as usual, Tom is so strong that he didn't get hurt that much even when the cab turned over and even when Max shot his shoulder. Tom is action hero, you know.

Having made fun of him, this movie is good. Especially, Will Smith's wife is so pretty.
