Titanic! So what?

Rating: 10/10 (14 September 1999)

"Face/Off" is easily my favorite action movie of all time. It has all of the elements necessary for a good movie- 1.) A good (not all believable) plot, 2.) Convincing acting, 3.) John Travolta and Nicholas Cage doing some of their best work, and 4.) John Woo directing it. If you add all four of those things together, you will get a hit movie. I knew that my friends would like the movie, but I was amazed at how much the critics enjoyed it as well.
This movie should be seen for the action and comedy. I would not recommend that little kids see this due to some images at the start of the movie. (those that have seen it know what I am talking about)
Travolta and Cage were great together. They complimented each others acting abilities very well. Joan Allen and Dominique Swain were also very good in there respected roles.
I have seen this movie at least 40 times. Seriously 40 times. I still do not get board watching it. It was 10 times more enjoyable than "Titanic", which won for best picture of 1997 at the Academy Awards. At least "Face/Off" was nominated for the MTV Movie Awards for best picture. It's an honor just being nominated. I personally feel that it should have won, but the nomination was nice.
If you are an action fan, you probably will like this movie. If you are a drama fan, you probably will like parts of this movie. If you have a pulse, you probably will like this movie. That is my personal opinion.
