I was disappointed with this film. Don't get me wrong, I liked it. It had the dualism of a bad guy who has good in him somewhere and discovers it. It was an antagonist protaginist. Cage is a bad guy, but he's not the worst bad guy, which is why you can't hate him. Though I have hated movies where the main character has this dualism. Cage just hasn't done a good film in a long time. All I can think of is Next, which was terrible because it had Jessica Biel in it and a bad bad bad ending. I do look forward to his next film, which is like all the handfuls of end of the world movies that have been frequently released in such a short amount of time. I'm hoping that one will be much better and a better success so that Cage gets better scripts and makes better movies again. Its basically about a hitman and suddenly changes all his tactics when he comes to Bangkok because he suddenly develops some hope in his life and his long yearning for some type of normalcy is creeping in on his hermit existence. It was definitely gruesome, a bit slow paced and lacking dialogue. All in all, it was an okay film.
