Good action movies that at least has three things going for it...

Rating: Null/10 (1 July 2003)

Yes, if there are only three positive things about this film they'd be:
1) The Action: This being a Jerry Bruckheimer action movie, you can count on that. From the scene where the prisoners escape there bonds to the ending motorcycle/fire truck chase, the action amazes to say the least.
2) The Villain: John Malkovich is always able to play a good psycho, but his "Cyrus the Virus" is my personal favorite. Cyrus kills without thinking twice and takes pleasure in infuriating the DEA officers after the captured plane.
3) Steve Buscemi Veteran character actor Buscemi plays Hannibal Lecter-type convict Garland "The Marrietta Mangler" Greene. Greene spews philosiphy and provides bizarre comic relief as action hero Nicolas Cage fumbles his fake Southern accent over and over again.
Aside from Malkovich and Buscemi, the acting in Con Air isn't exactly perfect, but hey, it's an action movie.
Okay action, 7/10.
