Face / Off (John Woo, 1997)
074 -While it's not our first Nic Cage movie, nor is it our first John Travolta movie, it IS the first movie we have covered where these two guys switch faces. It's also our first John Woo movie, in what was really his first US opportunity to fully unleash the Woo. Needless to say, we are excited. While this movie gets quite a bit of airtime in 90s-action-movies-of-excess conversation - and often gets lumped into a 'so bad it's good' category of film - we would argue otherwise. Face / Off is 'so good, it's good'. Unsure? Enquire within.
