i love this whole scene but i actually think the most powerful part is when Max says "we're almost at the next stop" or in other words "we can get you some help" not only does vincent like max, max likes vincent. but one thing im wondering is, whats the meaning of vincents last words? i know he talked about the guy dying on the MTA earlier and he was making a reference to that but what was the underlying meaning, if there is one?

@IbeJigsaw this is a michael mann film. come on films are meant to be interpreted in so many ways. and in terms of stupidity well brother were all susceptible to that.

@BennyBigPants2490 *to die, not *today

@TheLeoOfCostaRica i disagree. he dropped the mag cuz he lost its grip. a fatal shot to the chest usually causes this manner due to the trauma to the body. as u saw, Vincent aggressively tried to reload and pump more rounds at Max but didnt realize that he got hit until he dropped the mag n started feeling dizzy n abnormal. afterwards he simply took one last mean glance at Max b4 coming to terms that he was goin today and sat down sayin a great final line to Max b4 peacin out.

He dropped the mag because he knew it was all over at that point. When he reached for it, he saw that he was fatally wounded and spared Max's life.
Knowing how good Vincent was at his job, he could have easily killed Max with that last mag before dying. He just chose not to, and sat down.

(5:49) - Max: "Taxi!!!"

@IbeJigsaw Agreed but it's not a thinker movie though, it's suspense.

When i first watched this, at 5:15 i was expecting vincent to lift his head up and then go kill them :O like he was pretending to be dead :/ lol

@projectbrumaire This movie really plays to stupid people lol. Anyone who "thinks" that Collateral is a "thinker" is severely lacking some capacity.
@mistamistaladyisdead The director actually mentioned it in his commentary. What you stated is actually a theme in the movie. Vincent was specific, didn't believe in fate or luck, only skill and preciseness. Therefore Vincent's traditional double-tap to the chest followed by a tap to the head fell on the center frame of the train-car doors. Watch closely and you can see all three hit the door. Max, on the other hand, simply closed his eyes and pulled the trigger. One hit its mark, he was lucky.

@mistamistaladyisdead in the words of Samuel L Jackson "God came down from heaven and stopped these mothafuckin' bullets."
