This is one I saw back in theaters and don't remember caring much for perhaps due to the stark shift in direction with the digital format and over-saturation (compare that to Heat) but seems like the 16 years since, not only with Mann's Collateral, but other films have adopted something similar, that this time around it didn't look or feel off. As for the movie itself, solid storyline and the performances from Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell were really good, now I wish there was a sequel but that time has passed unless Universal goes the streaming route. **4.0/5**
