Screen Rant On /Filmcast Live Tonight!

[UPDATE: If you missed the live show, you can download it here or grab it over at /Film.com.]

I thought that today I’d give you more advanced notice (warning?). Tonight I’ll be joining the gang from /Film again for their /FilmCast Live.

You can join in on the show live or download it in a day or two when it’s online (but the live version is MUCH more fun, including flubs and outtakes that won’t be in the final version).

It will start at 7PM PST/10PM EST tonight (Monday, Spetember 8th).

We’ll be discussing the abysmal Nicolas Cage film Bangkok Dangerous, Ghostbusters 3 plus the Batman 3 and crazy Captain America casting rumors.

So if you’re a Screen Rant regular visitor and want to join in on the fun, head on over and give a listen: /FilmCast Live.

Bangkok Dangerous Review

Short version: Bangkok Dangerous, isn’t.


Screen Rant reviews Bangkok Dangerous

If Nicolas Cage doesn’t get a hit movie soon, he’s going to be doomed to doing only National Treasure sequels for the rest of his life. I knew I was in trouble when the showing I attended (11AM on a Saturday) consisted of me, and two other guys who walked in right before the movie started.

That’s it - 3 people.

In Bangkok Dangerous, Nicolas Cage plays an assassin who is the poster boy for the word “loner.” He travels the world and does his job with painstaking precision, but he’s just about had enough and is ready to do one last job and quit.

Nicolas Cage Talks Ghost Rider 2 and Kick-Ass

Nicolas Cage Talks Ghost Rider 2 and Kick-Ass

Nicolas Cage - love him or loathe him, you have to admire the man’s work ethic. He makes movies like they are going out of fashion, and while they may not always find an audience, they do show an actor who likes to try different material. No matter how crazy it may appear on paper (or on screen for that matter).

Cage has been doing the press rounds for Bangkok Dangerous and he has been spilling the beans on some of his forthcoming comic book movies: Ghost Rider 2 and Kick-Ass.

Bangkok Dangerous Poster

I could make a billion crude jokes about the title of this film, however I’m sure that you’d get a bigger kick trying to think of them yourself, so I won’t spoil your fun, but I will point out that the tag-line for this film is:

“There’s only one way out”

Anyway, Bangkok Dangerous is a new thriller starring the world’s greatest Elvis memorabilia collector: Nicolas Cage.

Cage’s name on a film can divide movie fans in an instant, I really like the dude. I watched The Rock recently and it still rocks (see what I did there) after 12 years. The Rock was Cage’s first action film, and at the time few believed that he could play an action hero . Now most people know Cage as an action blockbuster star. Funny what a few movies can do.

Well, it’s now time for Cage to pull off that action hero thing one more time in Bangkok Dangerous, an action thriller that looks a little bit Bourne, a little bit Bond and all Nic Cage, right down to crazy hair and a Hawaiian shirt.
