An edge of your seat thriller!

Rating: 9/10 (25 August 2002)

This movie ranks up there with the best. Travolta and Cage must take on each others identity, and they really pull it off. Cage, as Castor Troy is a totally fanatical killer. He shows this in the beginning of the movie when Travolta catches up to him, and they have guns on each other. Travolta hates the idea of taking on Cages' identity to find out where he has hidden a bomb. The idea of "transplanting" faces is not too far-fetched in this day and age. Travolta gives a great performance as Archer. He must deal with the murder of his son, and face the man who did it. It is great to see how these characters face off against each other. Troy's character really surfaces when he goes to the prison to visit Archer and says, "You'll be here for the next hundred years." Archers' love for his wife is unquestioned, and it is the love that ultimately gets him through.
