Bangkok Dangerous Details

[Highly rated reviewer]

Avoid at all costs!!!

As a big Nic Cage fan, I was really looking forward to this. I was hoping it would be a ballsy action movie in the same shape as CON AIR and THE ROCK. Unfortunately we have the worst film of the year so far and perhaps Cage's worst movie of his career.

Don't let the trailer featuring car chases, explosions, gunplay and hand to hand combat fool you. This is a tediously slowburning drama/thriller with three action set pieces. Cage's character is eccentrically quirky throughout, but not in an enjoyable way. I found him quite irritating. As for someone who is an assassin trying to keep a low profile, a bizzare receading bouffant is not the answer.

Corny dialogue, second rate action and a steaming heap of a storyline. Belongs on the bottom shelf of the video shop next to Segal, and Van Damme, not on the big screen.

Avoid!

Bangkok Dull

Being a big fan of Nick Cage and the Film Leon I thought I be on a winner with this film. Yet I fell like I ended up with the bronze medel here. Now I'm not saying avoid this film at all costs as Mr Cage can still make a bad film a little watchable and that why I given this a 2 star rating but I do have the feeling if it wasn't for the fact Nick Cage was the lead part, I do think I might of given this a 1 star rating.

I would sum up by saying that this film is something you could watch on a rainy day when there was no football on telly.
