Froide Vengeance

People tend to jump on the hate train too quickly that they fail to see that this movie had great potential. If only they had a director that knows what he is doing, plus with the budget they had. This is not a bad movie BUT there were some pretty bad moments that pretty much ruined it. This is not an action film but is centered around the Nick's character. So dont expect guns-blazing-mindless-action. Its really not that bad.

The story is quite good, though I would have liked it more if there was no twist in the middle. The pace could be a little faster, but it is an adequately entertaining film.

This is a good movie with a surprise in it. If you like Cage just see it.

Right, well I had very little expectations to this 2019 movie from writer John Stuart Newman and director Shawn Ku. Why? Well, it is a Nicholas Cage movie, need I say more? I can't claim to be a fan of his in any way. Sure, he puts on the occasional good movie, but they are few and far apart.

Regardless, I had the chance to watch "A Score to Settle", so I sat down to watch it, as I tend to watch movies that I haven't already seen before.

And glad that I did, because this movie was definitely one of Nicholas Cage's better performances, and a movie where you actually get to see him having acting talents. And while the movie itself was sort of mediocre, Cage actually managed to lift it up and out of mediocrity with his impressive performance.

The storyline in "A Score to Settle" definitely had potential. Sure, it didn't offer much of anything new to the genre, but it was still enjoyable enough for what it turned out to be.

Aside from Nicholas Cage, the movie has some nice performances by the likes of Benjamin Bratt, Noah Le Gros and Karolina Wydra. I can't claim to be familiar with neither Noah Le Gros or Karolina Wydra, but they definitely performed well in this movie.

"A Score to Settle" is an adequate movie if you have nothing more pressing on your to-watch-list. While it wasn't outstanding, it was still good enough for a single viewing.

My rating of "A Score to Settle" would have been a very mediocre five out of ten, given the flatlining storyline, but Nicolas Cage's performance lifted the movie up a notch, who knew!?

Nicolas Cage is still a great actor. just gotta find the right movie to act in.
