Has it ever occurred to anyone that Vincent (Tom Cruise) in Collateral is inconsistent and unfair?



After busting a cap in two white dudes for nearly stealing his briefcase, Vincent doesn't even punish Jamie Foxx's character, Max, for stealing and throwing his briefcase onto a highway where it gets ran over by a big rig later on in the film. Isn't that unfair?

No, it's not unfair because the two thugs he shot stole it for personal gain while Max did it to protect whoever Vincent was trying to kill since his intelligence was within the case. Yup. *nods*

Sure if you look at it that way...

But I don't think that should have mattered to Vincent. Vincent has no regard for human life.

But then again, I guess Max's punishment was to be Vincent's bitch.
