Movie Review: COLLATERAL
Collateral is a film about a cab driver and a hit-man, played by Jamie Foxx
and Tom Cruise respectively, who come together for one unexpected night. It's directed by Michael Mann and
written by Stuart Beattie.
I was recommended this film by a bunch of friends who really
love it. So going in I had my expectations set pretty high, and I have to say this film
did not disappoint. The whole feel of the movie was cold and yet vibrant. They
were able to convey so many ideas and themes between the scenes of action that
once the film finishes you start to feel uncomfortable with the feeling of
doubt on if you as a human being will make an impact on society.

Movie Review: THE PERFECT HOST
Howdy fellow film freaks, Robert here. Typecasting can be the end of an actor's career; getting inseparably linked with a character can make it very difficult to find new work after the project that made that actor famous has ended. One solution, should the opportunity arise, is to take a role that's so different from the one they are best known for that it destroys the connection. Sometimes it backfires, as in the case of Elizabeth Berkeley and Showgirls. Sometimes it works too well, a la Matt Smith in Lost River. And occasionally it poisons the well just enough that you never look at that actor's most famous character the same way again. 2010's The Perfect Host does this for its star, David Hyde-Pierce, best known as Niles Crane, the brother of Frasier Crane in Kelsey Grammar's Cheers spinoff.
