re: Collateral (2004)

Some people the movie would have been even better...

If it ended after Max crashed the car. "Presumably killing them both..or leaving it open for interpretation"

Although I do like this about the original ending....

The fact Vincent says, "Max! I do this for a living"

Then he gets gunned down by Max. Not because a Cab Driver could out gun a hit man. It was because Vincent was stuck on following his rules that he missed the chance to kill Max. All throughout the movie he shoots people twice in the chest and once in the head.

Well he tries that on Max and his bullets get stuck in the door. Max being more random and spontaneous is what gets him the edge on Vincent as he just shoots through the glass windows.

Really great stuff.

I really do like that final scene. It's just the whole thing of him going after Jada Pinkett Smith and all that. It really ties together nicely on the subway, though.
