My Review-

Seriously, this movie is probably one of the worst Nicolas Cage movies I have seen in awhile. The plot kind of makes no sense towards the end of the movie, and it does not need to be 2 hours long, that is just way to much for a movie like this to be that long. At times I had no IDEA what the hell he was saying because he would be whispering. And why would anyone believe his crack pot theory about the ideas, he gets the idea about the numbers when he was drinking, and when he spilled his drink that's when he figured it out...like wow really? And that kid who played his son, what the hell he could not act, for the life of him he always had the same expression on his face. Plus there is a really ridiculous scene involving a cop, Cage and a airplane crashing, where the cop runs away from the plane that's crashing...BUT it comes from the right hand side of him when he is looking over Cage's should that is the worst part of the film, well not the the worst part but this one stood out the most to me. Another thing about this movie was that Cage's hair was SO distracting. At times I found myself asking why would Nicolas Cage make a movie like this? I was hoping Rose Byrne would help save this movie, since she is pretty good actor but sadly she could not it was just bad line delivery at times. If your looking for a bad movie to watch this is it, but if your looking for something you will enjoy...do not watch this movie, it is boring and too damn long for this type of movie.
