Collateral.

Training Day is great too though.

Leon is better than both still.

 

[ReBurn]

Collateral is one of my favorite movies. I like Training Day a lot but I feel like Denzel over-acted it a little bit. I like his later movies like Man on Fire and The Equalizer. Man on Fire is right up there with Collateral for me.

It's kinda hard to compare. They're not even that similar besides the one day thing. As someone else mentioned Man on Fire is more comparable to Collateral. Collateral, btw.

Here's some more: Die Hard or Hard Boiled? Kill Bill, or The Matrix? Independence Day, or Armageddon? These are the real questions.

Die Hard
The Matrix
Both Independence Day and Armageddon are trash

...still, I love them.

Anyway didn't mean to derail, I should start my own thread. Oh also, No Country for Old Men beats both Training Day and Collateral.

36 votes for Collateral, 37 for Training Day

Gave the edge to Training Day just because it has got so many bone-chilling scenes. Jamie Foxx in Collateral is too much of a pussy, annoyingly so, at times in Collateral.

I agree about the ending of Collateral I thought it was stupid. Not just the shootout at the very end, but all of the stuff preceding that. How he got in a terrible accident, was well enough to overpower a cop, cuff him to the car and he happened to look into the car and see Jada Pinkett’s face on the screen, which was still perfectly undamaged btw.

Then of course Max makes it up to her floor just in time to save her, escapes, Vincent guesses the right subway car.

And then the ending they just kinda walk off at the stop and that’s it. But man up until Max crashes that car it’s a damn good movie.

 

[Vlodril]

Perfectly balanced.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Collateral because it has an incredible atmosphere.

 

[OverHeat]

Collateral ftw

 

[Urban]

Training Day.

Its not even a question.

*looks at votes

 

[ZehDon]

Training Day by a wide margin.

 

[AJUMP23]

This should be Training Day.....The other movie I don't even remember.

 

[trikster40]

Anyone know of any more movies like these two? Or know more movies that take place in a single screwed up night? I'm a sucker for these types of movies.

Judgment Night is a good one, Emilio Estevez, Dennis Leary, good old 90s movie. Guys take wrong turn, witness a murder, chased by the goons all night.

 

[Salz01]

I need to go rewatch training day, and then cast my vote. Its been a long time since I watched training day.

Harsh times?

Before I voted for collateral, due to it sticking in my memory more then Watched them both again. Training day has aged better than collateral mostly due to the cameras they are filmed on and the older technology in collateral. Cruise and Washington both give great performances Both are excellent but they are apples and oranges type movie in the sense one is action the other is more drama. Collateral has a smaller cast. Training day has a lot of great supporting actors(and hector) Honestly now I can’t decide so.

Harsh times?

Falling down. Insanely great film. Like training day and collateral it’s filmed in LA and LA is a plot point to the film.

 

[iPaul93]

Training day.I've always hated the way Collateral looked.The whole movie looks really cheap to me.

 

[Rac3r]

Training Day.

Not even close imo.

 

[F0rneus]

I mean Training Day, has a black man in a position of power so it's woke.
Collateral has the white man in power so it isn't woke.









Training Day, although both are great.

early HD movie cameras who’d thunk they would age like the early 3D games.

 

[GymWolf]

The one with Eva mendes titties on display.

 

[KrakenIPA]

Well now I need to watch Collateral. Training Day is one of my favorite movies, and yes, I have it on VHS.

Is Collateral set in LA?

Yeah, sadly a whole decade of Mann films suffer from this. Hard to watch Miami Vice, Collateral, and especially that gangster one due to the way they look.
