I just saw this goody again...wow, what fun! If I were to suggest just ONE fantastic, mindless, action film with great chase scenes, solid characters, and a weird but engaging plot, this one is it!
No spoiler, as usual. Here's the basic gist of the film:
Amber Heard, the pretty blonde in the picture above, is on the lam. She is aided by Nicolas Cage. Each is superb in his/her role: Amber sets a new bar for a tough, gritty, no-nonsense, kickass female. She uses her fists, feet, and more to fend off the bad dudes! She cusses out the evil perps with miraculous invectives worthy of a guy!
Nicolas is a hellion of sorts too...HELL being the operant word. He has a HELL of a temper, and a HELL of a driving skill, and a HELL of a lot of resilience to bullets! Huh? Find out for yourselves, dear readers! Point is, you know Mr. Cage. He does acting, plain and simple. I find him one of the best there is in Hollywood. Remember him in Leaving Las Vegas? How about Con Man? This guy is good!
Drive Angry is creative...not just your average shoot-em-up movie.
Take this DVD for a spin...and drive into a wild and crazy world!
