I want to take his face.....off!

Rating: 8/10 (11 May 2004)

John Woo. How you have made us happy. With Mission: Impossible II, Broken Arrow, Paycheck and this, his best effort, FACE/OFF. Everything is here: diabolical villains, lovable heroes, pulsepounding situations and his trademark: two-gun diving tomfoolery with white doves. Granted, it does get a bit confusing when trying to explain to someone who hasn't seen it, but just tell them to watch. The best two hours of my life. John Travolta plays a damn good cop and a damn good villain. Mind you, the same can be said for Nicolas Cage. They play each other excellently. The surgery scene is a bit gross but the way they get Nicolas Cage to sound like John Travolta is amazing.
