      Lawyers and judges, most of them, think only like a machine, a machine made only of rules that is a Law system. And like any machines, it can be hacked.
      That's why a real law use logic and rules of a civilised nation. Not just the rules that are so easy to play with.

      Not at all. But his abhorrence for the judiciary system that wronged him in such a life-altering way is a far cry from incomprehensible, if you ask me. The death of the innocent people were deaths he felt needed to occur in order to achieve his ultimate goal of bringing down the "diseased, corrupt temple" of the system. Though, I'd say the only person he killed that didn't deserve to die was Sarah, Jamie Foxx's blonde assistant.

    Clyde did win, he convinced Nick that what he did wasn’t irrational and the final shot of the movie where he’s watching his daughters recital, his face is a blank stare realizing he would have done everything exactly the same which would cause him to never make deals with murderers. This would have an entire effect on the entire law system that justice must be served or else you screw over the wrong people. So therefore Clyde got exactly what he wanted, for people to receive the punishments they deserve not the ones that work best for lawyers.

      The reason Collateral's ending was terrible is because it is a cop out, a cheap way to end the film, a near deus ex machina where, by some miracle, the meek guy who has no combat experience at all is able to take out the calm, cold, experienced killer. Die Hard made sense because John McClane was a trained cop which the bad guys didn't anticipate. Predator makes sense because Dutch was an elite special forces soldier. But Collateral makes no sense because Max was a Taxi driver. It would be like having the ship's engine mechanic, rather than Maverick, fly the fighter and defeat the bad guys in Top Gun.

    I realize now that the entire movie, even up to the end, Shelton was testing Nick and his morals. He was seeing how far he could push him with making deals, like asking for a mattress, or dinner and music, even though Nick KNEW Shelton did it. He did that because Nick wouldn't go to trial for the men who murdered his family because he wasn't sure he could win the case. So Shelton dangled the confession in his face to get him to do morally questionable things as opposed to the right thing. And in the end Shelton pushed Nick to do what I think Shelton himself felt was the right thing. That's why when he realizes he's about to be killed with his own bomb, simply sat down and made his peace with it. He got his revenge, and he finally pushed Nick to do the right thing, to not compromise with murderers, to be a better person, a better father, something he could never be again.

    “Well that’s what wrenches are for, dumbass.”
    This is Gerard Butler’s best role. He somehow manages to slide between a man playing an innocent and impassioned part and a rage-induced, highly lethal pyscho path in an almost bipolar manner.

    "Its not what you know, its what you can prove" Isnt this line from Training Day?

      Yes it was Pointl. Since Jamie is a big fan of Denzel, he ad lib that from " Training Day " Enjoyed Gerald Butler in this movie. This movie makes you really think about the legal system.

    "That's what wrenches are for, dumb ass" Is my vote for the "funniest line in a serious movie award" of the decade.

    Some people never understood the movie: Clyde never want to be a vigilante, or simply revenge; he want to prove that the system has a lot of failures, that things don't go as well as supposed to.

    In a movie that embodies incredulity, the fact that Foxx's character walks away thinking he has a confession actually stands out.

    I love how he was gonna come quietly in return for a decent bed and they said no. Yet they will allow murderers and drug dealers to walk free if they simply snitch on who’s at the top or give them a good lead to that person at the top.

    I love this movie...i watch it every time it comes on.
    I was rooting for Clyde with every kill...i just wish the ending would've been different
    I wish Clyde would've won in the end & gotten to his REVENGE on the Distric Attorney.

      Rumors are that Jamie Foxx protested ending from the original script. So it got rewritten. Not sure about the source now.

    The only reason Nick won over Clyde is because Clyde basically told him everything , Clyde Is Way Too Clever

    Lawyer more worried about a conviction rating instead of trying to do the right thing. Pride blinded him and he couldn’t see it or even acknowledge it.

    I like when Jamie Fox says bravo, and for a few seconds, Gerard looks up at him like, “Was I wrong about him? Maybe he has changed over the years.”
    You can tell that did catch him off guard, but he soon realizes that he still believes the system isn’t wrong

    • @carlbates9110
      @carlbates9110 Před 5 měsíci

      He could’ve also been faking his reaction, because the sympathetic gesture was likely just an act to make him more likely to confess (he did hate Darby, but still cared more about his job).

    Nick takes a deal with the guy who HE KNEW did the killing, just for the sake of his career. The real murderer of the two goes free while Nick moves up in the world. I think he was the bad guy of this movie, not Clyde
