Satirical reality

Rating: 9/10 (19 March 2006)

Through out the first viewing of the film, I felt sorry for how Nicholas Cage has to make such an effort to be portrayed as a slightly better thing than the ultimate manifestation of evil. In truth I don't believe its the arms dealers that cause murder, but the way we are and its just easier to point your finger and say that this is the bad guy.
On the other hand I am glad this film came out at a time when Hollywood is seriously running out of interesting or not so cheesy scripts. Funny thing is we need people like arms dealers to feel good about ourselves. Nicholas Cage's performance was great and the issues touched by this film are all part of reality that people don't like to familiarize themselves with. The Hallelujah; song by Jeff Buckley is one of my favorites and the musics of the film are generally great.
