Cheesy, self-indulgent trash
19 August 2023
Cage can be good. He's good in Raising Arizona, I find it interesting that in the TV series, Community, they had a class on whether or not Cage is a good actor. It's a interesting question. He can be really great. He's also in some pretty awful movies and can be really annoying. This movie would only be fun for the huge Cage fans. All the people gushing over him, all the references to his other movies, the comments about how good he is, it's so ridiculous. Others have commented about how this is no Being John Malcovich and that they wouldn't make this movie with any other famous actor, e.g., Samuel Jackson. This movie is some real self-fellating (not that there's anything wrong with that). If that's not what you want to see, eschew this movie at all costs. Watch paint dry or watch any of the many good TV series there are these days. It's not meta, funny or clever, it's just drivel.
