Replaced is Miles Davis with Louis Armstrong. In short, the jazz expert, which Vincent the assasin quized on jazz for his life, got it wrong. Dead wrong. Max (8 out of 10 )
Good movie. Tom Cruise played the part well. The ending was a bit of a let down though, but then I guess if they ended it just like a normal action movie it would've ruined it...peter schuster (10 out of 10 )

Love Mann. Cruise has never been an actor and in this "performance" is no good. Mann is a genious filmaker and he may be the most underrated director in cinema. I will never understand the need for Tom to be used in this role. I guess that oscar award must mean life or death for an actor so they get desparate, and perhaps they told Mann that if he did not use Cruise he can't make the movie. I hate Cruise, why is he in my world. Tom Cruise is the least scariest person on the planet. Shame on you Cruise for having the blind ego you probably deserve to have, please pull your self together and stick to your Mission Impossible movies! Dont worry Tom, you will get your lifetime achievemnt oscar and then you can finlaly be happy. This film was an insult to every good actor who plays a villiain in the history of film.coll (10 out of 10 )
The movie is very good, the actors too. The music was perfect. No movie has entertained me as much since Carpenter's "The Thing" and "The Green Line".Tom (10 out of 10 )
Best movie I have ever seen. The ending? Beautiful.Larry (7 out of 10 )
Great picture. It's not another meat head action movie there's real acting going on. Mann, Cruise and Foxx make this something to remember.Limey (7 out of 10 )
Jesse, I get what you're saying about Tom Cruise not being a natural first choice when casting a villain. But I thought he was quite sinister in this. His character had all of the ingredients that a good villain should have - he was a sociopath, impossible for other characters to like, but with just enough charm, eloquence and humour (the scene on the radio with Jamie Foxx's boss) to make him likeable to the audience. There were complexities to Cruise's character that went far beyond your typical moustachioed bad guy and I thought his demise at the end would have been heart-breaking, were he not such a total bastard.
I loved the way this movie was shot, it looked as though it had been hand-coloured by Zen artists with bruise-coloured skies and sepia tinted frames. Not a perfect movie by any stretch but I thoroughly enjoyed it. ashley (10 out of 10 )
Brilliant film. Tom Cruise done well as usual. Good ending.ash (10 out of 10 )
It may be the best film whose events happened in the streets, the same intensity is easily found in HEAT of Michael Mann. I find it perfect. Tom Cruise was extraordinary.james (10 out of 10 )
A perfectly 'cool' movie. Even enjoyed tom cruise in it. Genius film by Michael Mann.Alicia (10 out of 10 )
This movie takes an artistic and realistic approach, it speaks volumes about how two very different people can come to see the world in each others eyes. The message is clear and powerful and the images haunting. The acting in this movie was amazing Jamie Foxx and Tom Cruise were great together. Michael Mann is a genius!Brett (10 out of 10 )
I loved this film from the beginning to the end. Definately the best film I have watched so far. Everything about the film was perfectly matched. The music, the setting, the acting, the story-line, the filming style. It all matches perfectly, like any good film. Very impressed. Good job Michael Mann!Niels (9 out of 10 )
Screwd script, written with such panaché and understatement that reading it, is like devouring a tender steak.
Innovative and profound, the script reads like a novel. Loki (10 out of 10 )
Jesse- you are completely out of touch with reality. For whatever reason you hate him- you allowed that hatred to form a completely biased view of a great film. Your comments are completely off base and no honest criticism in anything you said. How can someone you don't even personally know, nor who has done anything wrong to you, engender such hatred in you. It would seem you are more of a sociopath than the character played by Cruise in the movie. Seek some serious help dude or girl- whatever the case may be. By the way- if you hate him so much- why in the world did you watch the movie in the first place?Benji (10 out of 10 )
Absolutely sensational film, Mann captures the essence of night and the vast wilderness of being alone in a dog eat dog world. Superb! I could seriously watch this film without any dialogue and just listen to the music and watch the cab roam the streets for eternity, the score and the locations are brilliantly shot, Mann just knows how to illustrate a mood and the chemistry between Foxx and Cruise just worked on so many levels, the fact that you feel Foxx isn't even scared of Cruise by the end, he's just sorry for him and that unintentional closeness they develop during the night club scene. Brilliant, brilliant film from start to finish.
