Continuity mistake: Near the beginning of the film when we see Max pull up to the first hit location and Vincent is talking to him in the back; watch closely and in one shot we see that Vincent has his hands below (probably on his knees), but in the following shot we can see his left arm is now up and grabbing onto the glass that separates the driver from the passenger inside a taxi.

Plot summary
Directed by: Michael Mann
Starring: Tom Cruise, Mark Ruffalo, Jamie Foxx, Jada Pinkett Smith
Jamie Foxx (Max) is a cabbie who picks up pretty Jada Pinkett (Annie) as his fare. They have a nice conversation and she gives him her card. After he drops Annie off, Tom Cruise (Vincent) gets in and offers Max $600 to be his driver for the night. Vincent says that he's in real estate and has to make 5 stops to sign paperwork. Max realizes after the first stop that he is driving Vincent to different locations for Vincent to kill people. Max keeps trying to get out of it, but Vincent keeps catching up to him. Vincent sends Max into a club as Vincent and the police, who have set up surveillance, now suspect Max. Max realizes that Vincent's last victim will be Annie, so Annie tries to get to Annie before Vincent does. Max saves Annie and they run away from Vincent down to the Metro.

Trivia: The film was almost entirely shot in high definition. Director Michael Mann states he did this to capture the night scenes more vividly.
