We follow Jamie Foxx, a cab driver who dreams of owning his own limo service, as he minds his own damn business driving his cab. Unfortunately for him, Tom Cruise aka Victor steps into his cab and asks him to drive him to six places for a cool $600. What Foxx doesn't know is Victor is a hitman. Unsurprisingly, this all goes awry and what we get is Jamie Foxx trying to save his own life without necessarily helping Victor make his hits. It's not always that interesting, but the action is good and so is the acting. The film is pretty damn gritty thanks to Michael Mann. I don't have a ton of complaints and there are far worse ways to spend 2 hours, but I dunno. I would have liked the characters fleshed out a little bit. Still, pretty good.
