Great idea, poor execution

Rating: 7/10 (20 February 2013)

I think this film is decent and worth a watch, however it could have been so much better. If they just had a better leading actor than Nicolas Cage, who overacted as he normally does and if Alex Proyas wasn't the director this film could be brilliant.
It was really frustrating to watch a film with such a good scope but let down with poor acting and an overuse of special effects. However, I do think that the story line was pretty interesting and hope that one day a remake of this film that shows the films true potential will hit the screens. So in summary, Nicolas Cage, please do not act ever again and please give this film a go, for all of its faults I think it is worth watching.
