Clever film idea - Bigs
Don't read too many reviews and ruin this jem. I was recommended this film and boy, did it deliver. Clever idea, clever twists, and everything inbetween was great. Also the young actress in here is just fantastic. Cage plays the obsessive-compulsive sufferer great; lots of laughs. M.C.Fantastic - MatFish
Another great movie from Ridley Scott. This movie features a somewhat predictable final twist, but the movie is so much more than simply building up to a twist. I'm usually not a huge Nicholas Cage fan, but he was fantastic in this playing a con-man who is struggling with his conscience and trying to create a new life with his daughter. This really is a must see movie whether you are in it for the twist ending or the journey there.One to remember! - sinic
The ending of this movie rivals The Sixth Sense as one of the best twists. The whole movie was fantastic. Cage put on a good performance and the scenes with his daughter are great. You really get that feeling that they are uncomfortable with eachother at first and then learn to enjoy eachother's company. In my opinion, this is a highly underrated film that did not get the attention it deserved.
