Collateral

Just been to see it.

It was very violent but very well filmed.

Although I'm not usually a fan of Tom Cruise generally, he played the perfect cool calm and collected sociopath...

Made me think alot about the value of a human life. (or apparent lack of it in society) People are dying every day in the news, in Sudan, in the Hurricane...

But does it reallt bother us? Does it move us?

Not really. Life has become so cheapened, a person's life can be summed up in a soundbite on the news. Think about that. Someone dies, and we listen for 30 seconds, and switch channels.

What's wrong with us?

How have we become so unshockable, so deadened to suffering in the world?

Will think more on this...
