When you need cheering up, look no further than a Nicolas Cage movie. I went looking for some Cage wackiness and I found a pretty cool ass movie. So this time we find Cage as Kyle a dude that deals in diamonds, he's married to Sarah played by Nicole Kidman, and has a daughter Avery. Sure dad works a lot and little Avery is out playing with big boys, but otherwise everything is coolio, until the night the cops show up at the front door, and ooops they weren't cops, they were robbers, coming for Kyle's diamonds. Led by Elias, Ben Mendelsohn, who's an awesome actor, the group barge in and want Kyle to open the safe not so well hidden or people will die, and that's when everyone's dirty laundry comes rolling out, like... Kyle has no diamonds, maybe? Sarah has been banging one of the robbers, maybe? the whole thing is a setup, maybe? One of the robbers is off his meds and is a little well, not himself, maybe??? It really was a cool intense thriller, multiple layers of backstabbery. Long live the The Cage!!!
