Random Movie Review: Face/Off

The utter pinacle of John Woo.  Doves flying, guns drawn in slow motion, John Travolta, Nicholas Cage, absurd action set pieces done with the utmost sincerity, Nicholas Cage, John Travolta.

How great is this movie?  It features Nick Cage in a roll where he does THIS and THIS and he's dialing it back!  The real looney in this movie is Travolta.  We've seen both of these masters of excess go nuts on there own, in classics like Con Air, Broken Arrow, The Rock, and Swordfish.  But never together, never with such gusto!

Nick Cage and Mustache, together. In a movie.Words can only say so much.  What's the verbal equivalent to jumping sideways through a window while firing two guns without getting so mucha as a scratch?  That is this movie viewing experience.

This is a movie that, if you have not had the good fortune of seeing, you need to catch ASAP.  Catch it with a group of friends.  Catch it with a case of beer and a pizza and be ready to have an awesome time.

Face/Off eternally Underrated.
