Kill Chain (feat. Nicolas Cage)

Here's another noir crime film where Cage plays the badass of badasses. There are no good guys, just a bunch of criminals and crooked cops killing each other as planned. The fun thing about this kind of movie is, while the arcs aren't especially strong, us viewers can never predict what's going to happen. And since Cage's character is smart and has made a few honorable sacrifices, we're disposed to root for him.

The aesthetic and direction are also especially good with this one. So if you're especially into violent noir stuff, stabbing vixens, or Nick Cage, I think you'll like this film. While it doesn't have a ton to offer, I don't think any part of it was bad. In fact I found it equally timely and entertaining. So far, my favorite Cage film of 2019.
