Mr Cages career must be really hitting rock bottom if he stars in a movie like this. Ok, it does have a classic plot, but it executes it with a minimum of effort storywise. There is some tension in the beginning, but its minimal. The flat, uninspired direction is only interested in trippy color and image effects and showing as much gritty violence as possibly in a strangely detached, disinterested way. There are adult movies which exude more excitement and passion as this strange movie. As the uninspired direction and performances are further stretched by very sloppy editing and writing into an overlong mess of a movie, the only feeling at the end is relief that its finally over. I believe it was made by recreational drug users with sadistic tendencies for a similar audience, so its appeal is very limited. One further curious detail is that the main actress already looks aged and lifeless when her character actually is still alive. Waste of time and money.
