Action at it's best

Rating: Null/10 (25 July 1999)

Face/Off is an incredible movie. There is nothing worse than an action film without a plot-fortunately, Face/Off had the greatest story of 1997. Neither John Travolta(Broken Arrow) nor Nic Cage(Con Air) had to worry too much about acting as the audience is satisfied enough with the amazing stunts and explosions.
Travolta plays a cop who is 'slightly annoyed' when his son is shot dead in his arms by ruthless terrorist Cage. After years of tracking him down, Travolta manages to under go surgical treatment that allows him to pass through Cage's world, which includes lover Gina Gershon(Bound) and brother Alessandro Nivola(Best Laid Plans). Unfortunately Cage also has the treatment that allows him to go through Travolta's life, including wife Joan Allen and daughter Dominique Swain(Lolita). Now all evidence that both are not who they say they are is destroyed and both have to battle for their old lives back. Both leads enjoy a cruise through an incredible movie experience. Both have recently been voted 'cool' by EMPIRE magazine for the making of this film, which will be remembered for years to come. Rating=4/5
