Interesting to note that two famous people take credit for the dispatch voices which you, along with Cage and his ambulance driving co-hort, hear during the film's constant calls for emergency action. Actor Marc Anthony , who plays Noel in this film, is actually a very famous Latin singer, who most recently released his first full-length English album. This film is based on the similarly titled novel by Joe Connelly . Especially enjoyed the music throughout. Was disappointed not to see more of John Goodman.
Cage does an outstanding job as usual.
Main defect was female role, but it was played well. A thought-provoking look at a sympathetic soul struggling in our painfully brutal world. One great movie. I saw it two times in a row to realize all the little effects put on scenes like music fills and very distinct playing with light and shadows. The agonizing helplessness and lack of perspective in this character's surrounding make you shiver.
