    A satire of 80's life, similar to American Psycho but better. Nic Cage's shit of a career can be forgiven just for this.

    Nic Cage gives the greatest performance I've ever seen.

    This makes Jerry Lewis look like Alec Guiness. Nic Cage's performance is so over the top it cannot be matched for sheer cocaine fueled manic insanity. Vampire's Kiss must be seen to be believed.

    An interesting foot note film for American Psycho.

    Nic Cage or Chris Walken. Who gets more roles for displaying an idiosyncratic performance?

    Whichever, here's another one from Nic. Kinda funny in places, then drags until the end. Tough sledding.

    I am always surprised when I hear this movie referred to as a comedy. Even the trailer makes it look "laugh-out-loud funny". It's funny, there's no doubt about that, but funny doesn't make it a comedy. It's more tragic than anything. Cage plays Peter Loew as though he thought he ...( read more)was in a comedy, which only adds to the tragic nature of the film - the guy has no idea how out of touch he is with the world. Brilliant film.

    Absolutely terrible.

    I like this movie. I have seen it multiple times and I still find things I missed. There was a problem with his accent, but otherwise they portray his troubled mind as well as I have ever seen.

    The only thing I couldn't stand in this film was Nicolas Cage's accent. I think it could of been left out. It was kind of funny watching his facial tourettes at random times in the movie. Other than that, I think he delivered a great performance. Pretty funny on how he blamed mes...( read more)caline for his wild antics at his workplace. Being bitten by Jennifer Beals isn't a bad thing, either.

What this movie needs isn't criticism, it's more like a stake through the heart. full review
