About the film
It started like any other night.
What it’s about
Cab driver Max picks up Vincent, who offers $600 for a night of driving. The fare turns out to be an assassin, and Max is forced to chauffeur him from one hit to the next across Los Angeles.
What hooks you
Michael Mann directs Tom Cruise as Vincent and Jamie Foxx as Max. The film won a British Academy award for cinematography and a Venice Film Festival prize. Mann wrote detailed biographies for the two leads to help them inhabit their roles, and James Newton Howard composed the score.
Who it’s for
It suits viewers who like crime thrillers with a claustrophobic, nocturnal atmosphere and a duel of wills between two sharply drawn characters.
