"Because you were never gonna do it anyway" this part right here has hit me so hard back in the day and to this day it is still the most influential movie quote of all time for me personally. Thanks for sharing this awesome moment from an awesome movie.
Vincent is right. All it ever took, was a down payment. What was stopping Max? I'll tell you what. His fear of failure, and maybe even, his fear of succes. We all have those fears on some level. We're too scared of the risks. I recognise that all too well. That's why I never forgot this film, and this scene in particular. Vincent is telling us the truth, in a very unflattering way. And it hurts. Max is like an aspiring actor who's been an extra in one or two movies, and when he's not working, he's fantasizing about being interviewed on the Graham Norton Show. He could relish on the fantasy of one day getting there, but as long as he's fantasizing, it's never going to happen. And Vincent just gave him a painful reminder of that. Fuck your fake world. Fuck your fantasies. What you want, isn't out of your reach. All it takes, is a bit of balls and perseverance. Yet somehow, most of us, are prone to give up in te face of resistance. Why bother. It's too much trouble. All but a few are able to ascend from that all too human condition.
Whenever I hear people talk about Tom Cruise, almost NO ONE talks about this movie. In terms of Oscar-caliber work, it's always Born on the 4th of July or Rain Man or Magnolia, or even Jerry Maguire, but I think his performance in Collateral is the best of his career. Cruise straight up should have taken home the Best Actor Oscar for it, which is ironic since Jamie Foxx did win that same year for Ray.
What a great, under-appreciated movie! Of course everyone is talking about Vincent. But Max is equally right. Its what makes the tension so palpable. This is a movie that on the surface seems very simple. But there is a strong sense that every character has his own deep backstory. Even though we never know exactly, its all there in the superb acting of Cruise and Foxx! Another Michael Mann masterpiece.
Vincent is so inspiring when he makes Max realize how he is living in a fantasy world. Max lives in a bubble. He has a plan yes but that's all what he's got. He does not have the other parts in order to achieve his goals like taking risks, adapting etc. Vincent just makes him realize this. His eyes, his charisma, his realistic way of viewing things, the straight forward truth that comes from his mouth..Love it.
How ironic like Vincent should be the last on earth to give life advice to anyone at least max not hurting anyone or taking their lives for a bunch of stack like Vincent..... people like Vincent thinks they are invincible and that they can have everything but what these clowns don't realise is that we are as small as a dust particle in this never ending always expanding universe..... Life is mystery and human life is an everyday struggle and max is doing his best and for people like Vincent karma is a bitch remember
Vincent is the archetypal Death. This is the story of Death coming to visit each person on his list before finally tending to Max. Figuratively speaking, this is Max's near-death experience. And like all near-death experiences, it wakes him to live his life more fully.
Thank you sir. I considered myself a junkie as far as this film is concerned and your idea of Vincent as the personification of death completely passed my by. I feel like I know so much more about the nuances in this film now. Bless you.
makosharkesq I'm super late responding but I was shot 3 times and I often tell ppl I never felt move alive than those very minutes after my life was almost taken from me...
Wow, what a powerful statement, "all it would have taken is a down payment on a Lincoln Town car." For him it really was the simple but for him it had to be perfect. Perfectionism is a curse.
The Joker and Batman did in the Dark Knight. Green Goblin and Spider-Man in the original film and Spider-Man and the Vulture in Homecoming. Silvo and James Bond in Skyfall. Thanos and Iron Man in Infinity War.
Great scene. People should use this speech as motivation. A lot of people have big dreams, but no drive. They always say someday I am going to quit my job and start my business. Or someday I will take that European vacation that I always wanted to. Do it now because someday could mean never for some. Don't stick with what is safe or easy. Take a risk or a chance. I find myself in this position right now. I graduated college back in late 2014 and struggled to find a job in my field so I took a job working for my family. It is a good job and the pay is well enough, but it is not what I want to be doing and I know that I could do this job for 10 years and never get promoted. I am still looking for a position (even if it is entry level) in the field I want, but I am still working for my family. Sometimes I feel as if that is counterproductive because I look for jobs some weeks and not at all some weeks. I feel sometimes it would be best not be working and concentrate on developing my career.
+psychoclownboy Max was daydreaming about something he never had put any effort into it. He drives his taxi cab and stares at the picture on his visor mirror.

Why.. The other end of that coin. Is stuff ends up owning you. Then you die. Then people that end up with it. Don't give shit. They sell it for nothing. You worked all your life for stuff...What a waste. As nobody gives shit about what you own. They will remember you for the things you did. Think I'm making it up. We talk about the things people did 4000 years ago. Not one is remembered for what they owned. The grave yard is full of those people..
One of my favorite scenes in my favorite movie. This is a great clash between Vincent and Max. While Vincent hits a hardcore truth to Max, I also see that Max is really calling out Vincent's crap about the justification of his actions. Plenty of times throughout the film Vincent is either saying he's taking out bad people or there's no purpose and meaning to life so therefore what does it matter how many people die or how they die. In the end both of them have been making excuses for their life decisions, the only thing is Max decides to change while Vincent does not. Max is negative judgement on Vincent is just as damaging to Vincent as Vincent's judgment and prediction of Max is. It just Max choose to change his circumstances which is why he wins.
I can't help but be redrawn back to this scene, time and time again. A poetic visualization of unbridled success vs. the aimless vagabond. For a brief moment we (audience) are placed in the shoes of Max - casually drifting in our vehicular coffin, lacking the sense of meaning or direction. Vincent, the archtypical representation of our truest form turned black - ruthless in our objective, unkind, but hyper-focused, thrusted in proximity which ultimately releases the flood gates to our potential. We do not know the self until we reconcile and acknowledge the deepest voids of our behavioral capabilities. In a sense, we are both Max & Vincent, one terrified of the other - one polar to the other. This scene is magic.
I think that max saw himself in that guy at the jazz club who talked about never fulfilling his dream. Part of this scene where vincent talks about how max is too much of a coward to go for what he wants in life and is wasting it probably is the best scene of the film.
+snois2 He must have because Tom Cruise pointed out exactly how Foxx's life has turned out and made him realize that he never did anything to change or improve his life.
Scary confronting dialogue from both perspectives. This is really about daring to throw yourself in the deep and try to realize your dreams. I am convinced 95% of all people (including me) are the person described by Vincent. But from Max's perspective, I wonder if Vincent would have survived and would become a successful assassin and made millions, what would his life be? Probably shallow and only meant to fulfill his own psychopathic selfish needs. A life not worth living in my opinion.
You know, to make actors say those lines, there had to be a reason for the writer to write those down. And it only happens when the writer had or would have had a near-death experience. You'll look up Stuart's portfolio and see, that he wrote Pirates of Caribbean. Simply, something made this man to live his life fully.
I always wondered how much of what Max is saying about Vincent is true. Was Vincent an abused, institutionalized kid that found a way to make killing, something he enjoyed and was good at, into a profitable profession? Or was he just a sociopath with a fairly unremarkable upbringing that enlisted in the military and found his way into contract killing?
vincent has his points and max has his points. Yea max played it safe and might have day dreamed too long. But vincent went after everyrthing win some lose some you can tell vince lost some of his humanity while max lost time.
This film is like watching Hegelian dialectics play out in the form of Max and Vincent. The synthesis we got is Max realizing his strength and "actualizing his shadow" as Jung would say. However, we could've gotten the other end of the stick: Vincent's illusion (logical as it may be) shattering, because Max challenged all of his views on humanity and life. The one guy he got to know before he killed him. He's always making excuses and blaming it on life's inherent randomness, but could he really forgive himself after that? I personally don't think that Max is a complete sociopath but rather someone who never considered developing empathy for others because he never got any himself. He views others like he views himself, an animal in every sense of the word.
This scene makes me think about life and my dreams and how this scene made me realize I most likely will never reach then because I will get caught up in the planning of it but won't ever reach them, it's the cold and sad truth about life and how we get our hopes up and have huge plans but then we never quite reach them
What I like about this scene, this movie, is that there are certain moments, where the dialogue transend's that of two actors saying rehearsed lines, and becomes two characters speaking hard truths to the crowd. Thats what I get from this scene. The way it was, written, acted, perfect delivery by cruise: He's not talking to Max, he's talking to ever last one of us out there who has a dream, and is too scared to chase it. To exceed our comfort zones.
collateral is one of the best movies ever. action , dark humor, great acting, portrayal of human pain and insecurities. tom cruise was masterful in this role. portraying the cold blooded trained killer with a hint of remorse and humanity.
This rates as one of the top Tell It Like It Is scenes. They both Hit It !!!! Check out Prince of the City scene where Treat Williams has to rip off a junkie to supply his Junkie Snitch. Man !!!!
That's possible that could Vincent may have like Max and was trying to get Max to stand up for himself by saying that shit. Just like I always thought it was possible Vincent let Max kill him in the end scene but that's going into some pretty complex stuff that doesn't have to much backing it up. There is a scene where the police are talking about vincents past crimes and patters one of which was him hiring a taxi cab, driving around doing hits, and then popping the driver at the end.
Always loved this Scene.. As Vincent assumes everybody wants more then they need. Well they don't. Some people are just content to life that way. That way they don't worry much about all their stuff. That ends up owning them. As you work to buy more Stuff. What a useless life.
I think that's partially true but when it really get's down to it Vincent is keeping him alive so that when he get's away he can pin the whole story on Fox's character.
Also there were police officers that saw him at the club too, all of this goes into why it would make sense for vincent to kill the cab driver. A because it's his pattern stated by the movie, it's what he's done before. B it's his pattern because it ties up any and all loose ends. Don't you think he'd rather tie up loose ends in this kind of situation than make a friend and leave him alive?
If who were to need an alibi? Fox's character?yea he'd definitely have some explaining to do. He wouldn't have the choice of needing an alibi if he were caught because the cops already know of his direct involvement in what happened willing or unwilling. Also he spoke to Felix, directly. Face to face, one of the primary guys responsible for the hit to take out the 4 whitnesses. Dude, if you honestly can't accept that you're wrong at this point then I've got nothing else to say.
It was a two birds with one stone situation. Which I think spells out how he works really well. In his mind he might be saying "It's too bad I'm going to have to kill this guy I like talking to him." Overall getting the job done matters more to him than having conversations with Max. But that isn't to say he doesn't like him. Even though according to the plot he has done this pattern before of hiring the drivers and then killing them at the end.
Famous quote, goes "just because you choose to ignore it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist." For instance that same man in the gray suit was seen by everyone in the bar, and with Jamies character.IN a cab, BY two police officers.That right there would be enough to get Jamie off the hook. Once he's off the hook he's considered innocent, which means they are far more likely to take EVERY single thing he has to sayinto consideration. Match up what he says with all the whitnesses, and things happen.
That isn't in the movie anywhere, also what you said makes no sense whatsoever. Max would have so much evidence that could be backed up by so many events during the course of the day it would definitely warrant an investigation regardless of whether he was incarcerated in the process. And as I said before Vincent had used this pattern before mainly for the reason I just gave.
"Because you were never gonna do it anyway" this part right here has hit me so hard back in the day and to this day it is still the most influential movie quote of all time for me personally. Thanks for sharing this awesome moment from an awesome movie.
This scene. This monologue- just rips to your soul if you realize this is you. Brilliant scene

JefErickson wow, I know no one may ever read this comment but that was really inspiring. You hit the nail right in the head.
Yes you right 👍..
GOD DAMN! That was deep!
Yes I think max just like a lot of people need a friend like Vincent to keep him grounded
Egotistical nonsense from a nihilistic murderer. No wonder this generation is fucked.

Agreed. Perfection doesn't exist.

Two guys just understood that they are both living under cold empty sky. This mesmerizes me so lot.
I wish more films took the hero and the villain then made them sit down and talk, always gets the most interesting scenes.

I find the question and the response equally brilliant... not just Vincent's.
Ya'll are underrating Max in this one.
Same here. This scene is brilliant, especially Tom Cruise's quote.
There is a moment in this clip, where Vincent breaks. You can see that max's outburst has struck a nerve with him.
You can almost feel Vincent thinking to himself, “And what the fuck am I doing with MY life?”
We all have a dream, but never have enough gut to make that dream come true. So sad
This is the perfect verbal boxing match. Max came out swinging but Vincent had an ace up his sleeve.

The hardest thing for anyone to do.... view themselves... Only someone who isn't your friend can give you a cold reality check.

Programmed and Trained to dispose of the Enemies...
This movie was only boring if you're the sort of person who eats paste and lusts after your sister..
Is that a trick question?
That isn't in the movie anywhere, also what you said makes no sense whatsoever. Max would have so much evidence that could be backed up by so many events during the course of the day it would definitely warrant an investigation regardless of whether he was incarcerated in the process. And as I said before Vincent had used this pattern before mainly for the reason I just gave.
Well Done :)
