PARAMOUNT PICTURES
Tom Cruise, left plays a hit man and Jamie Foxx plays a cabbie he highjacks as his getaway in "Collateral."


>> "Collateral": Director Michael Mann ("Ali" and "The Insider") thinks Tom Cruise is at his best when he's playing bad, so he's got the superstar, with hair shorn and dyed a gunmetal gray, playing an assassin with a fast mouth and a cold heart. Co-star Jamie Foxx plays a mild-mannered Los Angeles cab driver who picks up the assassin as the fare from hell, driving him from one contract killing to another throughout the L.A. night. (R)

>> "Little Black Book": Brittany Murphy stars as Stacy, a talk-show producer who is frustrated when new boyfriend Derek (Ron Livingston) refuses to discuss his past relationships. With the encouragement of her co-worker Barb (Holly Hunter), she delves into his Palm Pilot to learn about his ex-girlfriends. Using the show as a ruse and Barb as her guide, Stacy interviews and befriends them, only to discover that the past, in a few instances, is rather present. (PG-13)
