The plot is a combination of several themes from a number of recent flicks, along with a whole lot of double talk about good and evil. Not for the kids. This has to be the Mother of all action movies. A load of hardened killers commandeer a plane with only Cage left on board to stop them. It would be impossible to tell of all the gun play, explosions and daring-do that goes on in this flick.
Cage does a good job.
This is not the Mel Gibson we saw in Ransom. Here he plays a guy with a mental problem. A cab driver who believes almost everyone is involved in a conspiracy against him. When she tries to help him, Julia Roberts finds she's personally involved in this convoluted tale. Kind of a thinking person's Independence Day .
