First, I must confess, I'm a Nicolas Cage fan. That, being said, this movie is terrible. The acting is not good, but it's hard to tell how bad it is because the plot is do bad, the script is worse, and don't think they even had a director. Someone mentioned the terrible post production. Here's an example: someone must have thought the black SUVs weren't driving fast enough, so they sped up the film - very obvious - like a bad 1970s TV cop show.
