In this movie Tom Cruise plays vince, a contract killer, who happens to need a ride around the city so he can kill some drug barons and their associates. He hires a taxi, Max, who is supposed to not know what he is involved in but when the first victim falls out of the window onto the taxi he is suddenly a big part of this.

He tries to get away but Vince won't have it and he ends up driving him round all night, but little by little Max builds up the confidence to stand up to him, but is it too little too late. The film itself involves a lot of jerky camera work which can be annoying at times.

I was on the edge of my seat all night but was left feeling depressed at the end of the movie because of the bleakness of the background storyline. However, it is quite representative of how our lives can be and how we have more control over what we do than we think.
