One of his friends actually threatened his family you know he was dead after that there just ain't no going back from that

[@12227UserName]

@@vtrmcs How can anyone try to make the claim that the Iceman had any honor or sympathy for his victims? The man himself outright admitted in several interviews that he had not a shred of emotion or guilt. Nor did he have a shred of mercy for his victims. He was as cold as they come when it came to murder. As a child he would torture animals, particularly by strangling cats and by burning some of them alive. As an adult he claimed that he would kill random people on the streets just to test certain methods of murder. One method he tested on random people was by leaking cyanide poison onto unexpected folks. Another method he tested was by doing random drivebys with a cross bow, shooting people in head. When he did hits and or killed people close to him, he'd sometimes resort to more of personal approach, strangling and or blugeoning his victims to death. In one particular brutal murder, he phsycologically tortured a man when his gun jammed. The Iceman told the victim to pray to God, and should God strike him down, then he'd be free to go. Since his gun jammed prior to finishing the job, he used a crowbar to smash the man's head in. Then he stuffed him into a steel drum, not even sure if the man was still conscious or not. Perhaps the only thing Kyle may have had a little care for was his family, as it's the only time in interviews where he showed some empathy and remorse. Not for his victims, but for his children. And even that isn't clear. Psychopaths tend to be able to showcase false emotions when it benefits them in some way - whether to create sympathy for themselves or to sway a narrative.

[@Andrekky]

I think its funny that Max seems to actually enjoy the moment for a while as if he's totally forgotten he's sitting next to someone who has already murdered 4 people the same evening.

[@CarissaConti]

Max doesn't come across as the brightest bulb in the box. It takes him forever to catch on that something has changed after Tom Cruise mentions Cartagena. He's still sitting there with a herp derp! grin on his face, staring at the other guy. Only when the other guy's face changes does Max finally realize seconds later.....heeeeeyyyyy....what's going on.......?!?! as he looks back towards Tom Cruise like a little dim witted child. Forget the fact that he so easily forgets he's sitting next to a serial killer. And then shouts out "music school!" like a simpleton. Not very bright! I love this movie, and think that Jamie Foxx is a phenomenal performer, in terms of acting and mimicry, stand up/improv and singing, but I don't like the character of Max, at all, and he's the only drawback of the movie for me.

[@FutureBusinessTech]

@@CarissaConti I'm not sure what the issue is with the Max character. Max is the exact type of person who would be most caught off guard by a character like Vincent. The wide contrast makes the movie much more interesting.

[@estebangalvan1926]

Very good observation,@@CarissaConti. He actually said Culiacán. Félix works for the Sinaloa cartel. He's probably one of Chapo's lieutenants. Félix was protrayed by Javier Bardem, a Spanish actor. He put aside his distinctive Spanish accent for this role.

[@CarissaConti]

@@FutureBusinessTech I already outlined what the issue with Max is. Did you not read my previous response that you're responding to?

[@CarissaConti]

​@@estebangalvan1926 You may want to skip to 02:09. "What a great story. I gotta tell the people in Culiacan and Cartagena that story." So "he actually said" both Culiacan and Cartagena. I'm not wrong. So I don't know what the point of your comment is.

[@waltersobchak4565]

Such a great character building scene for Vincent. You learn he's a jazz and music nerd who cares to read up on the legends of the genre. And he really seems to savor the brief friendship with his target but never loses sight of the task at hand. He gives him the courtesy of having a speck of hope but kills him unexpectedly as a friendly favor. Easily Tom Cruise's best performance.

[@mryagami8448]

Tom Cruise charisma is perfect for bad guys roles

[@FungusUSMC]

You even see after Vincent kills him, he shows a hint of remorse, as if in another life they would have been great friends. Then Vincent quickly snaps out of it and goes back to work mode. One of Tom Cruise's best performances.

[@sageantone7291]

Nah. He has better.

[@gilpinsteven]

Agreed. This and Magnolia. But it's so wild in the final moments of this clip how he seems to become unconscious for a few moments. It's like he's blacked out. He can't comprehend the severity of his job as a contract killer and loses touch with reality.

[@herbertharris7316]

I don't he never lost focus. He knew this dude, Daniel, was playing *_game_* and that he was full of *_sh*t!_* So when Vincent finally blew his cover, it was over. The setup was perfect to perform the ultimate surprise of death without torment, or suffering.

Vincent had no intention of letting Daniel walk out of there. He was buying time to ensure the club was clear. He even scans the room while Daniel was apologizing, showing then the decision was made.

[@LovesandCuddles]

You know what I loved about this scene...the absolute illusion Vincent puts both men in. Vincent just killed three people up to that point, takes Max to listen to jazz and hang out and then what happens? They listen to jazz and hang out. That is so dangerous in the sense of, he put Max at ease maybe even had him forget what just happened earlier that night. No threats, no violence. Just three guys enjoying themselves. The whole time all three men are enjoying themselves, Vincent is still on the job, he might either be faking having a good time or maybe he really is, but he's still on the job. The first watch-through of this scene, damn near everyone didn't notice that Vincent was checking his surroundings before he was gonna execute his target. Pulls his firearm in a way that nobody picks up on unless that's what you're looking for. By the time his target realizes who Vincent is it's already far too late. Nobody is in the room but those two. Of course Max is there as well, but that means nothing. The most dangerous and I think scariest people on the planet, are the ones that make you forget they're the most dangerous people on the planet. I learned a huge lesson about people watching Vincent and this scene in particular... Just because they're friendly, that doesn't make them your friend.

[@amitj5916]

[@JoeBlo2]

I can't help but feel that Max played a part in the jazz man's death. In trying to assist him, Max steered the jazz man to talk about music schools instead of letting him interpret the question alone. Vincent's earlier warning to Max about not getting involved, lest his intrusions get others killed, rings true again in this scene.

Vincent wasn't gonna let him live regardless. So Max wasn't really at fault.

[@JoeBlo2]

Miles Wright​​ Possibly. But if Vincent really wanted to kill him without mercy, teasing him with a chance of redemption would've been pointless. Vincent was a sociopath but not the kind who would tease his victims childishly before finishing them. You could see in Vincent's facial reaction that he did not enjoy having to kill the jazz man after listening to his life story and building a rapport with him. But, as a professional hitman, he couldn't let him go with ease. Vincent posed a trick question and Max inadvertantly led the jazz man to utter a conventional answer. Part of me believes that Vincent would've stayed true to his offer had the jazz man seen through his misdirection. Max only wanted to help but he should've stayed quiet.

Masterful performance by Tom Cruise. A villain for the ages.

[@noodles169]

I know hes batshit crazy with all that Scientology stuff. But there is absolutely no denying that Mr cruise is a true movie legend. His early movies are awesome. He even does his own stunts 👌

[@chrisblanc663]

Don’t know why a person can’t just give a complement. I would like on my tombstone. Fed the hungry, but damn he never did pay that parking ticket. If you want to call the dude weird call him weird, if you want to compliment his acting prowess, do that.

[@sageantone7291]

Anyone who has to preface comments about Cruise with this bullshit is the problem. Not him. Yes, it's a crap belief. But you're a far bigger POS than he is.

i love this freaking movie! Tom Cruise needs to stop making so many action flicks and do more like this one.

[@ss-oq9pc]

4:27 it's very quick but I always thought this was a crack showing on Vincent, briefly showing his innards. He liked this guy a lot and he feels regret for killing him and he pauses to think to himself "What the fuck have I done? What have I been doing with my life?" But then he quickly snaps out of it and it's back to business. One of the best characters ever created and played to the fullest by Tom.

what a great scene, i gotta tell the people in culiacan and cartagena about this scene....wink!

Best movie with the worst ending.

[@truefitness2622]

I like how vincent chose his words when he made a "deal" with the jazz player. "We roll, you disappear... tonight" Extremely vague and can be misinterpreted, giving him false hope that he will live and walk away tonight when in actuality, they will leave and he will disappear off the planet. So in hindsight, even if the jazz player was right with the quiz , Vincent wouldn't have let him walk away alive. Excellent writing.

For some reason when he says 'I played for about 20 minutes' was just spot on to me. Well executed delivery in tone and facial expressions. This cool cat still couldn't hide his joy when thinking back to that moment

[@NewarkWilder]

Yeah I felt this too - the really subtle little facial movements he does just after delivering that line are astounding, like this little fond moment of pride that he can barely suppress. Great acting.

[@michaelleath7047]

There is a video on KZbin which delves into the characterization of Jamie Foxx, and how the change, or arc, really happens at the middle of the story line and not the end like so many assume. Just a brilliant piece of explanation for writers. This story was truly excellent and Cruise and Foxx were brilliant in their portrayals.

[@tangocash7304]

I love this movie, one of the many scenes that shows how Vincent is slowly begining to show that he's not the same man he was at the start of the film. The very first sign to me was the first kill, when the man fell out the window after Vincent shot him.

[@herbertharris7316]

i don't think so, it was Max that Vincent was developing a strong tide too! But I feel you!

[@nightshift8249]

You almost get the feeling he shot him because he lost track of a music career. Like his speech to Max about waking up having not fulfilled your dream.

[@the23rdsubject]

Such a great scene. That moment when his face shifts from enjoyment to dread... so good.

[@KVDC2008]

This was a complex scene to digest, because part of me wanted to believe that Vincent initially wanted to let him go if he did answer the question correctly. I didn't want to think that he was leading him on just to whack him afterwards. I think the truth is that he did lead him on, not to be cruel, but more about giving him some hope and also to surprise him and not see death coming. It was almost like a mercy kill, allow him to reminisce about the past before ending his life abruptly.

[@dafcorleone]

i loved this movie, toms performance was stone cold! i wish he would do more dramas like before, he is a great actor.
