Collateral - Watch Better Movies

[@d.b.t.shirt.676]

This is a prequel to The Amazing Spider-Man 2. After this movie Max is traumatized from the things that happened in L.A. focused on his studies in EE, moves to New York to further his career in EE, still holding on to his traumatic experience from L.A. (explains the hair loss and identity 180) and is eventually saved by Spider-Man to become the infamous Electro! (Jokes and fan theory lol)

[@tofubutcher7456]

​@@denimchicken104 I used to joke about this, loved Collateral when it came out (I mean I still do) and it was around the time of him showing some deeply strange parts of his life. The Scientologist stuff obviously is kind of unforgivable but cults are cults. Anyway these days though he keeps popping up in random English news stories where he'll have a meal at a random small restaurant and pose for a photo for their social media page and give them a good review, once he had to emergency land his helicopter on a random property, the property owner said he was incredibly nice and professional and sorted it all out properly, so now I think he just is the world's most interesting film star and probably a nice guy, albeit unfortunately tangled up in an evil cult. Hey, we all have our flaws I guess

[@denimchicken104]

[@mbryson2899]

Michael Mann is intense, I am not surprised he wove in the coyote so seamlessly. _Thief_ and _Manhunter_ are remarkable, my favorites of his films.

[@mercyweapon3791]

Kinda seamless. The gain on the camera is pretty cranked for that scene.

[@MrZachoria]

There's a theory that fans have spoken about concerning that final duel. They say Max won because he doesn't know how to shoot and shoots wild around the door. Where as Vincent uses a special forces shooting style habitually (muscle memory or complacency) called the Mozambique Technique (two to the chest and one in between the eyes). We see at the end that Vincent Shoots the door dead center three times (all being stopped by the door which many debate if it could realistically stop those bullets) and we actually see him kill this same way every time, at the club and the alley, the autopsied first victim is revealed to be killed this way. The same way Vincent kills is what kills him in the end, he prophesied his death twice.

[@RinzlerWraith]

this movie taught me that a lot of peoples lives would improve greatly if things were just a little bit worse for them. It's easy to just follow the day to day routine like max because "things are tolerable", can guarantee after meeting Vincent max's apathy vanished

[@Asidchild]

[@M14Jeep]

​@@Asidchild what the hell are you talking about?, Rinzle Hit the nail on the head. Most people will cling to the safe route because chasing their dream and taking control of their life is at the very least going to cause mild discomfort. This whole movie is similar to the scene in fight club when Tyler durden takes that late night clerk's ID and tells him to go to college and finish his degree instead of working his stupid dead-end job in the middle of the night. I bet you're the kind of guy that would go back to the carpet store after you beat cancer like Morty did in that Rick and Morty episode.

[@Brandon_Moves_You]

I don't what the dude under you is about, but that's the message of the movie. That's the take. It takes a shake up to break people out of their autopilot. I'd be interested to know how his life went after.

[@tnightwolf]

The scene with the coyote when "Audioslave - Shadow on the Sun" starts playing, to this day somehow, always gets me.

[@sawyerquint381]

So glad somebody covered this movie. Its so good in showing issues with nihilism in ways but also has the strong message of seizing the day and your dreams.

[@zw3in]

15:32 this scene is also ironic as well. Vince always does the failure to stop drill whenever he shoots someone. Two to the chest, one to the head. You can see the bullet indents on the metal parts in the middle of the door. The whole movie Vincent has been going on about Max's inability to break routine but it was Vincent's rigidity in his technique that got him killed. You can even see him attempting an emergency reload with an empty mag which (I think) was a USP45 mag anyways and wouldn't have worked in the first place.

[@enriquecabrera2137]

The reason he tells him that he doesnt need the job is because he knows hes gonna kill him at the end of the night so nothing matters in regards to his life. "You dont need this job. Whatever you need doesnt matter, your life doesnt matter." Is something unsaid.

[@M14Jeep]

I think that's part of it, but I also genuinely think that Vincent knows that Max is working an entry-level dead-end job and is just being stepped on by his boss because he knows he'll never fight back. Vincent is living his dream life, he is the "fighter pilot", "professional athlete", "Rockstar". Unfortunately his dream was to be a professional hit man, but he knows just how improbable, difficult and hard to achieve his life has been to get where he is and he's watching this guy not even take the most basic first steps of improving his career or life.

[@Muff_Master]

6:08 What he was saying is, that these huge tragedies happened on such a large scale and everyone was just a bystander letting it happen; why should Foxx become involved with the fate of strangers who will meet that fate regardless. The message Cruz is trying to communicate is, “be a bystander and let fate happen, don’t risk your safety and comfort to act”. Which was what Foxx had kinda been doing with his life up until then. He had plans but he was afraid to risk his comfort and safety to make those dreams real. With rescuing the girl it’s not just the obvious “boy rescues girl they live happily ever after” thing. By giving her the picture that represented his dream, he wasn’t just rescuing her, he was saving his dream. It’s the whole theme of the movie and it’s set up from the very beginning with how comfortable and safe Foxx feels with the routine of it all until he meets the girl. That’s my analysis anyway.

[@mjp152]

No one with any sense would lump this in with steven segal and jason statham flicks. Collateral along with HEAT is Michael Mann's best work.

[@josephrendon6969]

The coyote scene,(to me,anyways) Max and Vincent had a shared moment together, briefly wiping away their differences, and marveling in wonderment and awe at something that shouldn’t be there; a wild animal traversing a crowded metropolis.

[@mndayman]

if i could schitzo out for a moment the final scene is a lot more than just max happening to shoot vincent…. 1 In the first 2 taxi rides vincent says “i just got lucky with the [traffic] lights” 2 You spoke briefly on vincent having to improvise but his training is his downfall, the coroner points out to fanning that “these were all done by the same guy, look at the groupings 2 to the chest one to the head” 3 vincent loses his gun in the car crash, kills the security guard at annie’s office and takes his gun… MAX has vincent’s gun You take these 3 things and watch the scene a million times and you can see as the lights flicker on queue max makes his move firing blindly into the doors while moving to the other side of the train. Vincent does his signature 2 to the chest one to the head and a few more until the mags empty ASSUMING max would stand directly in the doorway you can see the bullet groupings in the door. So we see Max literally getting lucky with the lights, vincent’s inability to truly improvise beyond his training, and then we get the final scene…. Vincent drops the mag reaches for another only to realize even if he did have another mag it wasn’t for the gun he was holding, he sits down and accepts his fate.

[@ArgentPendragon]

15:20 Not crazy, Vincent kills people using the Mozambique drill which is two to the chest and one to the head. Ironically, his efficiency is his downfall because the train doors block those shots but Max firing wildly is what makes it through the door.

[@castlebravocrypto1615]

I love how you introduce the lawyer. Max should have let her unalive

[@SolidusLightning777]

It's entirely plausible that Vincent wasn't able to kill Max because the three bullets Vincent shot hit the metal part of the train door, while Max shot his bullets sporadically and some went through the glass part of the train door. It's another key plot point because it shows that Vincent failed because he was too set in his ways and formulaic (his three bullets were shot Mozambique drill style with two center mass and one to the head, just like how he killed his targets -- but his targets didn't have a metal train door blocking his line of fire) but Max being less tied down to monotony is able to outshoot Vincent in that moment.

[@jimmyJames0577]

outshoot? literally blind luck, as the lights were out and he just blindly fired

[@SolidusLightning777]

@jimmyJames0577 he killed Vincent didn't he?

[@jimmyJames0577]

@@SolidusLightning777 he was lucky, but he didn't out shoot him..i guess sometimes its better to be lucky, than good?

[@M14Jeep]

​@@jimmyJames0577 I think what he means is that Max's technique was to fire in a quasi-random circle around the door whereas Vincent's technique was to shoot directly at where he thought Max was. Although entirely inexperienced and was a lot of luck, Max won the day. I believe he did have a basic plan to try to shoot a circle around the door even though he probably did it very poorly and it was 99% luck. I think the bigger point of the scene is that Max has been afraid to take even the smallest of chances to improve his life for the last 12 years, at the end of the movie, we see him finally take charge of a situation and simply try his best at Great risk to himself, this is the finale of him simply trying instead of being complacent the way he has his whole life. The moral of the story is you never know you might get lucky if you simply "give it a shot"

@@M14Jeep yeah that's it. But Jimmy Boy here got all pissy because he didn't like the word "outshoot". Max even had more rounds in the mag so training aside, Max still had an equipment advantage.

Great film. A thematic reversal of Thief (Professional thief has surprisingly ordinary needs, wants to adopt a kid and start a family), and Heat (elite sociopath warriors doing hiests because they cant live life any other way, hunted by their opposite number on the Police, both sides essentially come unstuck by their neglect of family and social needs. Well apart from Val Kilmer who's ex has his back but that's just cool). In this still arguably thr same theme but shuffled around. Max is so focused on being a "good person" that his life kind of sucks, the token Mann sociopath Vincent shows up and actually teaches the civilian that he needs to loosen up and follow his passions (as said in the video about @12:03, strong agree)
