Dog Eat Dog (I) (2016)
3/10
Utterly pointless
15 December 2016
This is so pointless a movie that I may struggle to achieve the requisite 10 line minimum for reviews - well, that's two taken care of. This is a mess of a movie, which meanders aimlessly towards no real conclusion. The last five minutes or so is absurd. Nicholas Cage has never had great judgment as to which scripts should be consigned to the bin throughout his career and this is one that should be burned to a crisp instead! The dialogue is poor, the story is weak, confused and ridiculous. Willem Dafoe tries hard to rescue this, but even he comes across as annoying and the producers must have blown the budget on these two and hired a complete nonentity to play the third of this hapless trio. It's a crime movie, with no direction, or purpose. There is no thought as to logistics, I mean, three guys, all on three strikes, commit a crime, wearing no gloves and considering they are all ex-cons, it would take police less than the time it took to write this review, to know who'd done it. I'd say that at 4.8 stars, this movie is currently punching above it's weight. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone!
