So what's the verdict?

its a decent movie, not overly enamored of the ending but time well wasted lol.

Very good film, I know Nic cage gets a lot of (unjustly in my opinion) bad press regarding a lot of his movies but this one is a great comedy thriller. I really enjoyed it. It's one of the best films I've seen either Nic Cage or Elijah Wood in for a while.

"Hasta la vista, baby."

in short... it's alright enough to see once but it's ultimately forgettable. the later half of the movie is better than the earlier half though.

5/10 (Thumbs Down)

p.s. it's not a movie ill re-watch from time to time and that's what ultimately makes or breaks movies in the long term for me.

The only Nicolas Cage movies of any real worth (i.e. 7/10 or higher) for me are...

1.Lord of War (2005) - 10/10 (within my Top 17 movies)
2.The Family Man (2000) - 8/10 (within my Top 83 movies)
3.Drive Angry (2011) - 7/10 (within my Top 232 movies)
4.Face/Off (1997) - 6.5-7/10 (within my Top 232 movies)

there used to be more than those four but they took a hit for me within the last few years or so.

p.s. there is only 232 movies out of the 1,950+ total i have seen that scored a 7 or higher from me. i still like 6/10 range movies though and re-watch those from time to time but 7's and higher is when movies start to stand out from the pack for me.
