If they made the entire movie just of Elisabeth Shue's face I would have given it the same rating. She is an incredible actress and I find her beauty just captivating. With the said, the story is unbelievable and Nick Cage was just ok (no idea how he got an Oscar for this one). I'm not anti Nick (I like many of his movies like ConAir and the Rock) I just thought that playing a drunk was not that hard, though he wasn't bad at all. And what was with the Russian guys in the beginning, that plot element went nowhere. Oh, did I mention how much I like Elisabeth. Oh man, they don't make em like that anymore do they?
