Cage quiet and wait for him to prove them wrong…. But heck, it’s a fickle business I guess and I’ve heard the remake of The Wicker Man really sucked a whole lot of ass, so I had to keep my objections to their point of view regarding Mr.

I didn’t know the guys that well, so it took every ounce of self control I had not to just shout out “Were you not alive in the 90s? Do you not remember Nicholas Cage pumping out blockbusters faster than Charlie Sheen hoovers up lines of coke in the morning? Have you not seen The Rock? Have you not seen Con Air? HAVE YOU NOT SEEN FACE-OFF?” It just failed to register as a possibility in my mind that the guy who not only redefined the word ‘Badass’ in his portrayal of Castor Troy, but also managed to play the same character WITH TWO DIFFERENT FACES IN THE SAME MOVIE could ever be anything less than the most sought after actor in Hollywood. However, when I told people I was going to see it, and indeed when I met up with the dudes I was going to see it with everyone was like “do you even think there’ll be anyone there? I can’t imagine Nicholas Cage has got much pull these days”, and to my utter dismay I found out that apparently the big guy hasn’t got much of a reputation in the movie business anymore (half the guys I went to see it with were some kind of serious film reviewer whereas I, as you will probably realise when reading the rest of this review, am certainly not). When a friend of mine offered me a free ticket to the preview of DRIVE ANGRY 3D, I was immediately pumped, mostly because I’d already seen the trailer and thought to myself “any movie that stars Nicholas Cage as a dead guy who’s ESCAPED FROM HELL to avenge someone or others death literally cannot fail to be a corker” (well, apart from maybe Ghostrider that is).
