Since 2015, M. Night Shyamalan’s movies have been a roller coaster of the good, like Split and (mostly) Glass, and peak weirdness, like Old. Trap is probably the most mixed bag of his recent films. It has a solid premise and some effective sequences, but it is also full of his bizarre dialogue that sounds like an alien pretending to be human and some ludicrous plot beats, especially in the back half.

Collateral is out on 4K Steelbook for its 20th anniversary along with Dragonheart, Hackers, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey and Face the Music and more in the New Release Round Up.
