This first is that he's not FBI, he's a Special Agent In Charge for the Secret Service. Also, when Tess mentions inoperable brain tumor in the first 5 minutes she's listing 3 things and asking Doug (Cage) to pick which one was true, and that turn out to be going to the opera, but it was enough of a hint that people seeing the movie for the first time might ponder her remark till it is revealed. The mysterious medical condition is her headaches. You think that old iron-box bitch told those baby sitting Secret Service agents anything personal? The only bit that bugged me is when Cage was calling in the license plate of the car and says the letter "k" ("kilo" in the phonetic alphabet) as "kill-oh" instead of "key-loh". Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Cage! I sure hope you get that straightened out before I watch "Lord of War" and you have to take a payment of 6 kill-ohs of cocaine.<br /><br />Any how, I got this on DVD which was a nice refresher on what is good about VHS tapes. Who decided that a DVD should have sections that we are forced to view and cannot skip past? Honestly, I've seen your dire warnings about piracy in 33 languages hundreds of times and I just want to enjoy the movie already. My thanks to those DVDs that just jump to the menu within seconds of inserting the disc.<br /><br />This was my first time watching this movie other than seeing a few minutes here or there on the TV. Getting to see the first part where Cage is forced to return to guard Tess and the resulting battle of the wills is a lot more enjoyable when you have some context. It was nice to see Cage holding himself back and mumbling "yes ma'am" rather than foaming at the mouth every other scene, it really make the shooting of the toe one of the highlights for me because I wasn't expecting the yelling and violence from Doug. Cage must have really enjoyed letting himself loose for that scene.<br /><br />All is all it was a slow but enjoyable movie that you can watch with the family or significant other.Steve Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01691715956208605416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5486647021928910059.post-77778306077567355402012-04-04T13:11:44.860-07:002012-04-04T13:11:44.860-07:00This movie was one shocking sex scene away from to...This movie was one shocking sex scene away from total perfection.James Ayershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11560479592464116645noreply@blogger.com
