How low can he go?

Rating: 2/10 (22 September 2002)

This movie is quite simply the worst thing I've seen in years!
The acting is wooden, the characters are unbelievable, the dialogue is stilted, the battle scenes and special effects are seemingly choreographed by Saturday Night Live, and the plot is riddled with more holes than the average Japanese soldier by the end of the film.
It's amazing how far Nicolas Cage has fallen since his Oscar-winning performance in "Leaving Las Vegas". There he was an interesting man, with a truly sympathetic affliction. Here we're supposed to feel for him because he has, (get this...) a severe ear injury! Are you kidding me? Not exactly evocative material here...
The only group of people I feel more badly for than the paying audiences of this film is the Navajo community, which has been cheated out of a movie that ever intended to tell its story-- not some excuse for filming explosions and dead bodies.
If you want poorly filmed schlock, contrived action sequences, saccharine dialogue, and a chaotic story, then PLEASE so see this movie. Otherwise, save yourself the time and money.
