Bangkok Dangerous
When is a Nicholas Cage movie not good? Even “Wicker Man” had it’s moments. Action filmsĀ are not my favorite, but I do enjoy them. Cage always delivers an intense gun fight. Bangkok Dangerous gave a nice modern day insight to the 60’s and 70’s mafia scene. Even-though hit-men still exist all over the world, they haveĀ gotten smarter. In the movie, Cage drugs a victim of his to cover his doings. How many people are murdered and left to look like a suicide? Too many.
This movie has it’s reality while still adding the fantasy and questions to the plot. It had everything, guns, the bad guy, the wanna-be bad guy, the hooker working for the mob, the unknowing love. What more could you ask for?
This is not Cage’s best movie, nothing can beat Face-Off; but it is a definite must see and add to the DVD collection. -2 Thumbs Up-
