"Silly, but entertaining action"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Action packed movie, violent fun and entertaining as long as you can suspend your disbelief. And if not, it's a comic spoof of the genre…

Cage at his angsty, over-acting best here closely followed by Travolta. Ok so it's silly, OTT, and has huge plot holes, but damn it, I like this movie!

"Gripping"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Well acted and exciting.

Description

Face Off

Obsessed with bringing terrorist Castor Troy (Nicolas Cage) to justice, FBI agent Sean Archer (John Travolta) tracks down Troy, who has boarded a plane in Los Angeles. After the plane crashes and Troy is severely injured, possibly dead, Archer undergoes surgery to remove his face and replace it with Troy's. As Archer tries to use his disguise to elicit information about a bomb from Troy's brother, Troy awakes from a coma and forces the doctor who performed the surgery to give him Archer's face.

Critic Reviews:

  • " Woo, a master of poetical carnage, mixes kitsch, sadism, sentiment and comedy with choreographic precision. " – David Ansen
  • " I won't pretend that I completely enjoyed it, but it certainly has a few elements that I've never seen before. Action aficionados will undoubtedly slobber all over themselves. " – Paul Tatara
  • " [A] gorgeously shot, repetitively violent, occasionally repellent, sometimes silly and consistently trashy fantasy. " – Joe Morgenstern
