It was kind of like an Ashley Judd movie in that way. We laughed a lot during the POV scenes--this must have been made pre-handicam, or else all of these people roll around on trolleys. Also, is it really a surprise that Gary Sinise is the bad guy? He always plays a devious bastard. Mainly because he looks like one.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10346131703225426408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5486647021928910059.post-5500834777207210512012-04-24T13:36:49.182-07:002012-04-24T13:36:49.182-07:00Solid as a cement pillar.

The scene where it gets introduced serves no other purpose but to introduce us to the device. It's like the movie gets paused for 30 seconds while the director steps in front of the camera to explain to us what the device is.Steve Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01691715956208605416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5486647021928910059.post-79935426039936425202012-04-24T12:33:59.567-07:002012-04-24T12:33:59.567-07:00My plot holes are bullet-proof on this one.

She was out cold and didn't care what I wanted to watch. It was just one of those sad moments when you look at what you have to watch next and you have snake eyes.<br /><br />Cage did a pretty good job playing a dirty cop and was very convincing, but maybe it just felt that way because of the terrible acting of Gary Sinise. Gary's most unconvincing scene was when he was pretending to be distraught and tells Cage he left his post. Yes, I know, he really was supposed to be pretending, but it just came off really badly.<br /><br />The whole movie falls pretty flat, but not because Cage failed to deliver. I think James' review is dead on, so I'm not even going to mention that I don't agree with his plot holes.Steve Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01691715956208605416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5486647021928910059.post-91806390907618273222012-04-09T18:50:02.155-07:002012-04-09T18:50:02.155-07:00This movie had a lot less Nicolas Cage flipping ou...This movie had a lot less Nicolas Cage flipping out than I would like, but nonetheless it was fantastic. It was actually a very well done movie from a cinematic perspective.<br /><br />One of the first scenes, in which we really get to see Nicolas Cage playing a slightly corrupt cop who doesn't play by any rules but his own, is shot in what appears to be a single take for about seven minutes or so. Its well choreographed, with several phone calls and a fast paced camera.<br /><br />Its also where Mr. Cage told us that the plan was for her to give us a boner. And we got one. Boner.Egan "J.T."
