Just watched this movie for the first time in a few years. I feel like it’s quite underrated. Great movie with solid acting and a fantastic soundtrack. Tom is a badass. Check it out.

Great movie.
Tom killed it.

I always just thought of him as the pretty boy with ok acting chops, but this is the movie where I started taking him a little more serious.

Don't forget Jason Statham's cameo as the Transporter

Not sure why you are downvoted, but I agree with you. Excellent, suspenseful movie. Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx were solid.

It’s so good...

Michael Mann and his style of directing and visuals with two A listers going toe to toe... can’t ask for much more in my book

So underrated. I loved Miami Vice too. frick Jamie Foxx for shutting down any additional ones to be made. That could have turned into a really good series of movies.

But Cruise' character dies, and he was by far the most interesting thing.

Fox stole the show from Cruise in that movie

Most fascinating thing about this film is that Cruise was dating Katie Holmes during filming and soon after married and had a child. They divorced in 2012 and Katie pretty much immediately started seeing Jamie - they got engaged but recently separated.

I like The Transporter as much as I like Collateral. Would be interesting to have a crossover movie with these two characters.

And Crank is a top ten action movie.

Tom Cruise plays a psychopath killer way too easily.

It's a really good movie, and it's the first movie that made me realize Foxx was a legit acting talent, then he follwed it up with Ray and cemented it.

Excellent movie. Great writing, directing and acting. Love the back story of Fox and his limo company dream and Cruise calling him out on it and visiting his mother. The scene w/ the jazz player was the best of the movie. A+. Might be Mann's best and that is saying something.

Apparently you missed “Booty Call” in 1997.

She went full on nasty after the BBC. Stopped taking care of herself and was just being weird in general. I don't blame Fox for dumping her.
