What a load of rubbish

Rating: 3/10 (14 May 2002)

I've been putting off watching this film since it was first released, but I finally gave in -- and regretted it. If a film is good enough I can usually suspend my disbelief, but this one takes the biscuit. Having tolerated the usual Hollywood shoot-em-up gun culture in the first 30 or so minutes, I was then presented with this ridiculous operation to switch faces. At that point, I fast forwarded to where Nick Cage wakes up and finds his face is missing. What utter tripe. Sorry, but I'd rather watch a cheap 50's horror B-picture. I abandoned the whole farce at this point and will never be tempted to revisit it, unless someone threatens me with laser surgery or else.
3 out of 10 for having Gina Gershon in it.
