Like I always say, I do not write many reviews. First, I only write:

#1) if the movie is extremely good #2) if people are unnecessarily bashing a good movie #3) if movie is good but has a low rating.

This movie got reason #1.

This is 2020 and Nicolas Cage's career is all time low. But there was a time, 20 years go when his career was at peak. This is one of those movies where he really showed his acting skills. His facial expressions when a normal everyday man confronts evil and then again confronts evil and then again and again. The more he digs, the more evil he finds. Movie has a simple story but it is very well made. It is an original work of art. Even if you don't like Nicolas Cage much, you should watch this movie. It has some disturbing scenes but those show you how evil lives in the forms of human beings. It will leave an impact on you, a permanent one. It is 2020 and I still remember when I saw it more than a decade ago. These scenes, expressions of Nicolas Cage, still keep on running in my mind from time to time.

Like I always say, I write only because of one of the three reasons:

1) if the movie is extremely good 2) if people are unnecessarily bashing a good movie 3) if it has a low rating.

I decided to write this review because of 1st reason.

I expected a Low-Budget action movie (B-movie in short), in the likes of Dolph Lundgren, Steven Seagal and Van Damme but it was surprisingly better one. I can not call it a B-movie, it is somehow in-between a B-movie and the big-budget action movies of Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. It does not have story development or planning of those big action movies but it is original, funny and has a really good Hurricane (best part of the movie). Go, forget the world, grab something to eat, sit and enjoy. you will not watch it 2nd time but for one time watch, hell yeah :)

Like I always say:

1) First, I only write if the movie is extremely good 2) if people are unnecessarily bashing a good movie 3) if it has a low rating.

I decided to write this review because of 3rd reason. It is good light-hearted buddy-copy action-comedy. Original dialogues, authentic acting, original story and nice humor. Of course, it is not gonna win any awards, no nominations either but if you got time and an action movie guy or action-comedy fan or like to pass some feel-good time or even if you like something "original", get some pop-corn and sit down and watch. It is an enjoyable movie.
