He talks a good spiel about starting his own limo firm … but never does anything about it. Instead, he gets really good at navigating the streets of Los Angeles, making him an expert at a job he doesn’t care for. Unlike Max, hired ...

    If Max and Vincent are from different towns and poles apart on the moral spectrum, how are they in any way similar? Well, both have jobs with no safety net: no holiday pay, no benefits. At the same time, both are highly adept at their jobs. Vincent is the killer who never misses, thinks fast and always lands on his feet. Max is an exceptional drive...

Of course, this is just cat-and-mousery, because he’s goi...

    The question that dogs the plot is: deep down, is Max just a passive version of Vincent?Is he a good man because he’s truly a better person, or because he lacks courage? Vincent pushes Max out of his safety zone. As a result, he starts vying for control of the wheel, figuratively and literally, perhaps for the first time in his life: 1. He throws V...
