I felt like I had had a long dry patch in terms of my cinema intake. I havn’t really just been going about once a week but that seems very little, so I have done a blitz. Which will continue for the next few days! Unemployment is getting old!
This was a good film. Nic Cage was cool and violent, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It was nothing special or exciting but was a standard enjoyable action. There seem to be a lot of those but I dont think we should put them down too much. I was very entertained, if not overtly impressed. Fun story, bloody ending. The end was definatly the best bit though. I think it got a bit boring somewhere in the middle and took a while to get into the swing. Also Nic was doing a voiceover, which I hae heard him do before and it felt quite samey. Still worth seeing, perhaps though if not a HUGE Cage fan wait for the DVD.
