Garbage.

Easily one of the most boring movies i have ever encountered, it was literally like torture, i wasn't able to look at my computer screen for an entire hour, but i had to force myself into it so that i can review it, but i already regret doing that, because writing this makes me bored.

It's a story about a drunk lonely middle-aged man played by Nicloas cage, which isn't really a problem cause he fit into that role very well, and i don't know if i'm complimenting him or offending him with that, but i never respected Nicloas cage as an actor, but i felt ok about this role, i mean i wasn't impressed or anything like what people are saying but the casting was the best thing about this movie.

The story is really, really boring, Ben Sanderson (played by cage) loses his job, and his wife divorce him, so he decide to move to las vegas and drink himself to death, that's his entire plan, he's an alcoholic who can't even have a normal conversation without drinking, he meets a hooker in las vegas, and they start an awkward relationship, and it's all depend on whether or not you can relate to him, because if you didn't (like me) you'd be bored and out of your mind the entire time, because nothing can help you in making the movie interesting, the dialog was corny, the story is really slow, and nothing happens the entire time, but if you can relate to it, then you might have a good time.

But i don't see how anyone can relate to such a character, specially when there isn't anything in the movie that explain nick cage behavior, i mean he was drunk and borrowing money from friends from the very beginning of the movie, so you have no background as why is this happening, and then comes the hooker (Sera) who just want a meaningless relationship with a dude for no obvious reason, so if you think that you will relate to her, you can't, because there wasn't a proper introduction to that character, even weirder that she had a friend that used to sexually abuse her and she stayed with him for along time, so whatever people saw in this movie, i failed to see, and i was about to shut it down but i didn't because i wanted to write this.
