What the hell is up with Nicholas Cage's hair??

Joe (Nicolas Cage) is a hitman.
And a meticulous one at that. Always living for the job.
But now it's time for that one big hit. The last one that will make him enough money to be able to stop killing and retire.

So Joe's arrives in Bangkok for the job.
But being the final job, the usually tough Joe starts to go soft and goes against his usual rules.
He takes a street bum Kong (Shahkrit Yamnarm) under his wing and manages to fall in love with a deaf-mute pharmacist Fon (Charlie Yeung).

Surely this is not going to go as well as his previously normal textbook jobs.

ai yai yai.
Nicholas Cage used to be such a good actor. Not great but at least some of his movies were pretty okay to watch.
But over the past few year his movies (including big budget ones like Ghost Rider) really fucking sucked shit.

I didn't watch the original Thai movie but this remake helmed by the same directors The Pang Brothers was quite bad in a LOT of ways.
The plot was SO predictable, the dialogue cry and on top of that - you have to put up with Nicholas Cage. And his hair.

Yeah sure. It's a hitman movie.
But it could have been so much better.
Hmmm maybe it was a little TOO simple? Or a little too sucky.

Final Verdict:
