Not so much for Nicolas Cage (or John Cusack for that matter), but for the one and only Vanessa Hudgens. While she also did Spring Breakers (another movie she tried to get rid of the Teenager/romantic image everyone is associating her with), she wasn't done there. This is another role to prove she can be more.
Of course if you go in pre-occupied, she won't convince you. And while she's not the best actress out there, she really puts herself out there. The story itself is pretty standard and a thriller that pushes all the right buttons. Cage does his thing (though not over the top, if you're expecting something like that) and Cusack goes an extra mile. It's not great, but a nice little movie
