Seventeen years later it's even better !

Rating: 9/10 (7 September 2014)

When 'Face/Off' first came out in 1997, it was impressive but not great. However I co-incidentally watched the movie again, seventeen years on and I truly loved it. Perhaps some parts of the film and more notably the epic performances of Nicholas Cage and John Travolta may have been missed first time around. Both Cage and Travolta are brilliant as they play the roles of good and evil, with Nicholas Cage giving his best career performance as psychopathic 'Castor Troy'. The film has great action, which in itself is never enough, what it also has is drama, emotion and interesting female characters. This is not often the case with action orientated movies but Face/Off is more than that, it is an experience of 90's movies at it's best !!
