Saw this last weekend, thought it was good but not great. Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx are excellent, photography is great, story line holds your attention, but when it was over I thought, "Why did Michael Mann make this movie?" IMHO, he made two back-to-back masterpieces (LOTM and Heat), followed by two good movies with big themes (The Insider and Ali). This just seems minor by comparison. Maybe he just wanted to tell a good story, and I was expecting more.

I saw it last weekend - Tom Cruise has hair like Quincy and there is a lot of unecessary advertising - Bacardi - what was that all about?
Apart from that - not bad at all.
