He did it for a living, like a wolf killing for hunger not fun, a wolf never hates or loves its food, he just eats it. In the end all he thought was whether if anyone will notice a wolf who was all alone in this world. Atleast that's what I like to think.
@Heat that’s amazing! I never knew Mann had that degree. Def stands out in his films. Especially Collateral. Thanks for that, I learned something today!
@Heat rewatched it yesterday so it's pretty fresh in my mind. The thing is that it seems unclear if he really wants to spare him at the start. For sure they have some chemistry, but midway through the film it shows you that Vic has no problem killing guys towards he has some kind of simpathy. This added to the fact that he was probably behind another killing spree of a taxi driver in another city (who conveniently committed suicide afterwards) makes me think that this is kinda his modus operandi. Maybe it's just left open to interpretation.
Right into the nerves he needed to shot. Or they both certainly would’ve died that night, like all the others. I love Tom in this role. He killed it! No pun intended😉
Vincent is exactly what max needed. His life was always accepting compliments and taking shit from everyone. He was living his lies. Vincent made him take initiative and to make decisions as if they were life and death, to never again settle for anything less.
This song is something else! It’s a bit stoic, scary and beautiful! And that build up to the end 2:45… For me… Epic! As Tom is in this performance. This movie and soundtrack was far too underrated…
@@knives5964 The music gives vibes of a dude who was tortured this whole life with existential issues & crisis & this music was kind of describing what his soul learnt here before going. It's weird synchronicity, I got obsessed with this music for last 3 days probably & then you commented to this music after so many months just 4 days ago. It's like all those souls who are tuned with this music get activated collectively. I wonder what made you reply to a comment made months ago ?
@@rahulranjan9013 I'm always on youtube, and have saved the video of Vincent's death in my phone. So i searched " Collateral Vincent's death theme" thats how i ended up here again. This music is a masterpiece I'll likely download it too. I searched just to see if people can relate to what this music does to those who truly have ears for music. I can't even explain it, especially the part at 0:55 it's so dark like something that belongs in The Last of Us game.
@@knives5964 yep! I feel that too! That sudden eruption of the tune in 0:55 makes me feel all kind of things. As if describing the soul's longing to feel wholesome again after a life full of hardships & darkness. As if the soul's crying for help after learning dark truths of life. It doesn't know what to do anymore. Pure nihilistic vibes, full of sadness/hopelessness & a pinch of longing for someone to heal/help him. It reminds me of Albert Camus' philosophy of Absurdism. Life is Absurd.
This is probably one of the best fucking scripts to have ever been made. the dynamic of all the characters made it the most important craft of storytelling in the early 2000s. this is why you love the characters and the actors did a phenomenal portrayal. this movie is the best tom cruise movie EVER made.
@@Owl.762 well it still wouldn’t have been an happy ending for Vincent if he stayed alive. This ending is at the top of my “best endings of films” list to be honest
@@photoballa fr bro, its like if you are gonna quote the movie, get the quote right ffs, thank you, guy on train gets in LA and is like dead yo, think i took any notes?
@@nickn7939 yeah I know man some of these people, not mad but if doing something, it's good to do it properly. Plus I'm used to having to quote correctly for English exams so its annoying when its incorrect. I missed a comma after LA though
People usually cheer when the villain dies, but Vincent's death is tragic because deep down he's not evil and he spares Max's life as if he's a friend.
Actually, Vincent was evil. The things that he did was evil. The way he killed those people was evil. But Max was like a friend to him,so he let Max kill him.
@@MotorolasAregoodPhones578i checked out the movie again and Max survived because vincents shooting technique gets blocked by the door while max wild random shooting gets through the glass. Not only does that mean vincents way of adaptiving to each scenario failed himself at that moment, but also the flickering of the light benefits max shooting "strategy" as he "is always lucky with the lights". So in my mind vincents liked max enough to not go out of his way to end him there but his contracts always come first. That is my Interpretation of him screaming "i do this for a living" before dying.
1:30 notice that this instrument's sound almost mimics a Coyote's low howl. . That's meant for Vincent - he's a lone wolf assassin and this song is a requiem for him. . Outstanding work!
A great M.Mann film in that it all takes place in L.A. at night over there course of 4-6hrs... The night lights, the reflections off the glass/windows shows why L.A. is beautiful in the dark. Better than Heat? No, but a distant 2nd.
I have a theory that Vincent met Neil from Heat just like he met Max. after Neil’s last prison stint he was on parole and had to drive a cab for work. Vincent took a liking to Neil, befriended him and taught him military style combat techniques. Vincent was definitely portrayed to have a special forces background then turned mercenary/ assassin
@danielherberg3521 glad it made you appreciate yourself more. Now go out there and be the best version of yourself. In the final moment of the film, Max is no longer himself and became a whole new man, Vincent (which is a type of character hidden in each of us) helped him get to that next place.
One of Tom Cruises greatest roles without a doubt and not a surprise considering it was released in the era of when great films were still being made, the simpler time of 2004! Such a poignant film with Tom Cruise playing a nihilistic assassin who always does what's necessary to complete his objectives and towards the end of the film, he helps Max change his way of looking at life. It's a shame Cruise never did any more villain roles after this, he's perfect for this kind of thing. He should of shook up his resume a bit with more stuff like this. Vincent lived a tortured life, needlessly ending other peoples lives to make ends meet, I wonder if at the end when he succumbs to his injuries on the metro, his life flashed before his eyes, what was the point of it all? A completely pointless and aimless life, never making connections with anyone else, a lone wolf, manufactured, I wouldn't wish that on anyone, no matter what they've done, it's a horrible existence. One of Michael Mann's last great directed films, he really does well in LA, especially at night, with the cinematography and everything. You will never get a film like this again, a product of it's time I guess.
Vincent quotes and character changed my mind and my personality, I became another man and my look to the world,things and people become more realistic than the past.
@@foxglow6798 I didn't stay in one job for along time like Max in the movie ,I always looking for a better job and I don't let anyone in my work hurt me by any word I don't have any fear of my manager or supervisor because I don't care If I leave my job . A lot of people don't want to change their daily routine or life because they want to be in a safe position even if that place or job still their life and their time
The ending of him slumped over in the subway car,sun rising,train moving slowly,and business as usual occuring around his corpse the entire time is imo, a metaphor for capitalism making ppl heartless and self absorbed while having no reverence nor respect for life and the faithful departed. No one has the time,energy,nor concern because we're wrapped up in trying to cover our end every day and week. Very depressing surreal scene.
He foreshadowed his own death from the beginning. Remember the question he asked Jamie? A guy dies in the metro, how long before someone notices...well something like that.
@@doctorblue6375 I believe you,as I'm vehemently anti-Communist. Capitalism unchecked slouches toward Communism. We need a traditional Christian Constitutional.Monarchy.
There is a prequel. Jason Statham and TC discover themselves in the heat of battle during an incident with their Army Ranger unit. We truly begin to understand why Vincent turns into a hitman offing those 5 bozos in collateral. The back story needs to be told first as this was never answered in C.

Vincent accepts, but is unexpectedly and unbeknownst to Lestat swept back in time by Mimnoch the Devil to confound the vampire upstart and miscreant.

Collateral is so much more than an action movie.
📢I agree 200%! for me it's a terrific lesson about "US - reality / madness in our world , society" and man's psychology 🎭
Max was dead, Vincent gave him life.
My God¡¡¡ That´s true¡¡¡
100% !!!!!
Smartest thing I read today.
Very true
Cruise deserved to get atleast a Oscar nomination for this role !
And for legendary the last samurai
I think Vincent's dream finally came true in that scene. A lone wolf assassin who hated being what he was.
He didn't hate himself
He did it for a living, like a wolf killing for hunger not fun, a wolf never hates or loves its food, he just eats it. In the end all he thought was whether if anyone will notice a wolf who was all alone in this world. Atleast that's what I like to think.

He changed Max’s life, made him a person that really is “a guy that’s a doer not a guy that just talks”
