Nicolas Cage has recently been on a bad streak of movies such as Season of The Witch, Trespass, and recently Ghost Rider 2. I watched this with no expectations and to my surprise thought it was actually pretty decent suspense thriller. No, it's not a great movie, but it's a perfect Rental that will keep you entertained. The acting is actually pretty good. Cage and Jones do an alright job, but Pearce really did a good job as the villain in the film. I thought a movie like this would be predictable, but the film actually goes in a bit of a different direction than you would expect it to. However, the movie fell flat in it's third act when it substituted all of it's suspense for action and a somewhat disappointing ending. Still, even though it's not a great movie and has it's flaws, Seeking Justice is still a decent thriller perfect for a rental that is better than you would probably expect. Even if you don't care for it, you still can easily admit that it's better than any of Cage's other recent films.

Nicolas Cage and Guy Pearce aren't exactly my favourite actors, I can't put my finger on why but they both just really annoy me. So I didn't have very high expectations going into this film, thinking that I would be rolling my eyes at every word they uttered. The fact that I enjoyed the film, is either a nod to my ability of being able to withstand irritating people or that it was actually a really good film.

The untimely incident with Will's (Cage) wife (January Jones), was made even more disturbing by the juxtaposition of him playing chess. Such an ugly event opposed to a tranquil game, it worked really well. I did have a little pernickety moment, when Will went to visit his wife in hospital. His character just didn't seem believable, he didn't even ask what had happened to her or how she was. Most normal people would (ok, moment over).

The snakeskin shoes worn by the villain is a great reiteration of the phrase several characters use, "This place (New Orleans) is going to hell," and judging by the choice of the initial villain's footwear, he's going to be the one to take them there.

January Jones shows how to fight back, with her major "girl power" moments and as a teensy feminist, I loved it. Alongside a thrilling plot, I was pleasantly surprised.

At first time i was thinking a lot for seen these movie, because right now Nicolas wasn't doing good movies at all. Still, this one wasn't the greats neither the worst. Makes you wonder hows gonna end, some things a little weak of interpretation, story line was good, acting was very well got to admit, action quite impressive how this one can fit in the believable context. I was expecting to see more the other characters, Guy, January.

Despite all the little missing things was a good movie. But i still want to see more of Nicolas, he did great movies a years back, we deserve more from him as an actor.

Although a number of reviews play down this film, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I quite like Nicholas Cage, ever since Con Air - he seems to play the laid back, slightly relaxed good guy to whom it all just gets a bit too much. You are quickly engaged with the theme of the film although I have to say I find it difficult to imagine Mr. Cage as a High School English lecturer. No massive brain power needed to follow the story line which moves at a satisfying pace.

In this, at times, quite plausible film he again enjoys the hard done by guy but you find yourself drawn along with him almost feeling for him.

A very nice way to spend 105 minutes and well worth your viewing time. a definite 7.

id give it a 6 at best. kinda reminds me of Taken..but its a Nicholas cage movie, fans of him will like the movie no doubt. the movie has gaping plot holes and more than a couple of moments doesn't make sense in that i feel that important events were cut out. the film really cuts corners where it shouldn't, the sequences are really awfully put together. but the camera action was OK, it has this realistic vibe you remember from Taken, but do not be mistaken, the story itself is far from realistic. Also i have to mention that the end was also unsatisfying in the sense that made you curious but not in a good way because the movie itself didn't deserve that kind of ending it should have kept going. instead it amplifies its story where there is too little to amplify in the first place.
