Wired for action, Collateral is directed by Michael Mann; written by Stuart Beattie while Tom Cruise, Jamie Foxx, Jada Pinkett Smith, Mark Ruffalo, Peter Berg and Bruce McGill portray different characters in this 115-minute film.

To announce the screening of the film, a media launch was held on January 19 at the theatre. While talking about the Star Cineplex's fourth Hollywood movie venture, Rabeth Khan, executive director of Showmotion Limited said, "This Eid will be memorable for movie lovers as Collateral will hit the town on the Eid Day. Initially, on January 22 there will be three shows of the movie at 3:330pm, 6:00pm and 8:30pm. Later from January 23 there will be four shows daily on 12:15pm, 2:45pm, 5:15pm and 7:45pm." The ticket rate is also reasonable. To quote Rabeth, "The price of the regular ticket is Taka 150 while the premiere one costs Taka 200."

"Apart from Collateral , the Bangla movie Shasti, based on Rabindranath Tagore's novel, will be shown at the theatre from Eid day and there will be three shows of this film everyday. But on Eid day there will be only two shows of it," Rabeth added. Besides, Welcome to the Jungle, 50 First Dates and XXX are also showing at different theatres of Star Cineplex.

Set in Los Angeles mostly after dark, the story of Collateral centres on a taxi driver, Max (Jamie Foxx), and the assassin Vincent (Tom Cruise), who hops a ride with him deep into the night. As the pair cover the city, looping over interchanges and down wide open boulevards, they travel a landscape alive with wild animals and wilder men, noisy with unfamiliar music and chatter, and punctuated by the hard pop of occasional gunfire.

Suddenly, a body lands splat on the roof of the taxi, shattering the cabby's nerves and a large section of his front window, and Stuart Beattie's screenplay kicks into overdrive. Max discovers to his horror that Vincent is a killer for hire and this is only the first stop on what looks to be a very strange trip.
