I'm not a critic, i just look at films to see what they are and find myself some sort of entertainment. What i can't understand is how people that don't know anything about making films can't stand at telling they are satisfied or they find the movie bad. The reasons those criticasters give only show how little they really know about the movie making industrie, and they try to appear to be all knowing how a movie has to be in their eyes, without ever consulting the directors, producers or the actors themselves. Is there any criticaster that ever have for real been an actor him/her selve? Let people decide themselves what they think about story, choreography and the capabilty of the actors and makers of a movie without displaying your own complete ignorance, or proove to us, you really have an understanding of what you're writing about. Bad or good, i enjoy the way Nicholas Cage playes his characters, and after living for 76 years now, you can't tell me otherwise.

In my effort to see as many films of last years as I can, I come across a typical revenge film that is indicative of a Euripides tragedy. Reason giving was to passion as the protagonist attempts to avenge the death of his daughter.At the end, one thinks of Karma at work. The sins of the past being balanced in the future.But is is those sins that cause me to think throughout this movie. I see an Irish Catholic boy in Paul (Nicolas Cage) who presumably confessed his sins and received absolution, and who then went on to perform great works to put that sinful life behind him.But, I also see the stain of those sins remaining in his heart and soul. They never truly go away, and he reverts to his previous character and commits even greater sins as his passions consume him.Passion overcomes reason and causes Paul to reject those who love him, and to hurt his friends as well as his enemies.The sins of the father are visited upon the son, or in this case upon the daughter, played by Aubrey Peeples of Lake Mary, Florida, and a famed Sharknado actor.

I saw this movie while sitting on a plane from Madrid to Miami. It's for sure not the best place to watch a movie but when you have nothing else to do it's just the best solution to kill time. I thought this movie was bad. And it wasn't because I was sitting uncomfortable nor because of the crappy sound in my earphones. Nicolas Cage made for sure better movies then this one. It's all gone downhill for him with this movie. And what to say about Danny Glover? I still don't get what he did in this movie. And the little he did was just extremely awful. The story itself is so cliché it's painful to watch. But like I said, I was on an airplane and had to kill time. Would I watch it again? Certainly not!

I was hoping for some good old classic criminals-messing-with-the-wrong-guy rather violent action movie when I sat down to watch this one. I was indeed expecting it to be a B-movie but being a B-movie does not necessarily make it a bad movie. Well I was right about it being a B-movie and it was indeed rather violent but for the rest it did not turn out to be exactly what I hoped for.Paul and his buddies does indeed start to crack down on the less desirable elements of society. This they do using the well-known strategy of applying a healthy dose of violence and if that does not work then you use more violence. In general the movie starts off fairly well but as we ride along it starts to degenerate into silly outbreaks of rage. I know the movie is called Rage (as well as Tokarev) but I was expecting the rage to be directed towards the bad guys and not just senseless shouting into the air. The further we go the more it degenerates. There is the classical cops-who-intervene-and-let-the-bad-guys-get-away stuff. Very annoying. The stupid screw-up of Danny and Paul's way of handling it was also a bit of a downer.Still, the movie was not all that bad until we reached the end. Well, the end does have a twist to it that has to be said. It also had to be said that I did not like it at all. Even if I could have gotten over the twist itself, the actions of Paul afterwards and the final scenes really sunk the movie for me.Nicolas Cage did not do a bad performance but, as far as I am concerned, he was given a less than stellar script to work with. Technically I would say that this was on the upper half of the scale for B-movies but the story, especially the ending, was not my cup of tea.
