Here it is, yet another opportunity for Nick Cage to overact and chew the scenery. He can now walk through these roles blindfolded as it only requires the standard set of over-the-top expressions and groan inducing explicatives. Those who like this sort of limited trash won't mind, but for a movie with only two main characters and neither of them has any redeeming qualities, it's a rough road to travel and still find much to enjoy along the way.
Joel Kinnaman is OK as the driver Cage 'kidnaps', but writer Luke Paradise seems to have only two motivations No.1; To make you hate humankind and 2; To kill innocent bystanders while filling in time - neither offers much incentive to bother spending valuable time watching (unless your time is bordering on worthless).
For over 90mins the viewer is forced to run over the same situations and dialogue without getting any closer to finding out if anything might have a resolution and when the resolution is finally delivered, be left feeling somewhat cheated for what feels like two Hrs. What might have been a tight little suspense drama is wrung out into an overblown, repugnant hate fest in copycat Tarantino's lack of morals manner.
You will have to belong to the school of the easily pleased, otherwise be left wanting your time back. And people wonder why there's blood on our streets...?
