I have always liked Nicholas Cage but it will take a while before I can view him again without remembering this strange adventure into self-indulgence. It might have helped if he had not been listed as a producer. It might also have helped if a humbler title had been chosen. It might also have helped if somehow the message was that this was tongue-in-cheek. If it was attempting that, then it failed miserably.
Like every second film these days, it was labelled a comedy. This label has been used so much that it has been rendered meaningless. There were some almost funny moments in this film but not enough to come near being a comedy. It was more in the embarrassing category.
The acting standard of the supporting cast seemed good with Pedro Pascal and Sharon Horgan up to their usual high standard.
If you are a fan of Nicholas Cage, approach this film with caution as it may leave you somewhat disillusioned.
