I think Nick Cage isn' t the only one to see in the future as this is one of those 'if I can't guess whats going to happen - I might as well give up' sort of movies. It has a deli counter full of cheese and is remarkably wooden in parts, but in a way that all adds a bit to its hook, and it makes it all a really quite entertaining movie. Its an action film rather than a thinker, but has some good little bits hidden in it. So if you don't expect too much and want to be entertained for 96 minutes it won't let you down. I enjoyed it and would say it is worth a recommendation.
Damn! Damn! I was really enjoying this film, plot was good with a slight hint of originality and then...oops! Whats going on here? I dont want to give too much away but let me just say the ending is abrupt. So abrupt it was like the film director looked at his watch and said 'um guys thats it, w'eve run out of time. Stop it there and print it'
I can see why they did it but it still doesnt make it a good ending.
