I just watched Collateral again and noticed the knife Tom Cruise pulled in the club scene. It sure looks like a Sebenza. Did any of you notice it?
What knife was it. :poke:

Was it the same knife as the one he opened in the cab?

Couse this one looks like it is an automatic.

Really cool movie, T.G.! Except for the last 5 minutes which lapses into a predictable ending, I was wondering what was going to happen next through most of the film.
Cruise and Fox did a great job I thought. Nice directing from Michael Mann, who also was very close with the sound guys according to an article I read in MIX magazine.

Good point! The "Making Of" is especially interesting. I think the DVD viewers actually get more than the theater-only viewers did on this one.

That would explain why the gun shots always sound like the real thing in his movies. Heat! Best movie shoot out ever! :gogdog:

Yep, they went out and recorded all the guns you see in the film to make the SFX. Used a close-mic and one a ways away to get that rear-channel slap.
Beautiful cinematography too. Shoot, I might haveta buy that one once BlockBuzzter starts thinnin' the herd.

Cool that they used a good knife and not some POS. 99.99% of the viewers would never know the difference.

Thats true. I think a movie can only be "very good" if they use the right stuff.

With "50Cent worth equipment" the movie can only be good.
Not more than a standard good.

Thats why I like movies like Collateral.

The High Standard .22 with integral supressor is pro gear too. It sounded authentic there in the jazz club. (they didn't use that cliche' Sionics 2-stage sound effect, "pew")
Excellent use of music, I noticed the second time around. Michael Mann is so detail oriented no wonder the product is so good. I guess you could say this one gets the JD seal of approval. :devil:

this movie has one of the best scenes in it that I've ever seen


where the guy steals the briefcase belonging to Tom Cruise and gets the speed rock response
