Trespass

An actual good Cage performance, that we have forgotten about after over a decade of utter dreck. I will say at the time, this film was that very dreck. He has been doing these kind of performances, one after another since 2011, but when I go back and see Trespass, I wonder why? He did it all perfectly here, to where the others seem like imitation and are coming up shorter. That is because creating a character rings differently than just running through a 'mad man' shtick he repeats. I think it is because of Joel Schumacher. He was a real actors director, a master director who worked in the confines of mainstream film. Rediscovering his work from ground up from the 1980s, I see his mainstream films in a new light, from Phone Booth, to this, he never lost that artistry, even if it came in more outrageous packages.
